Davey Graham

This is Davey Graham’s second solo album recorded in 1979 for Kicking Mule Records. Having pioneered a world view which made the music of the Orient as accessible to aficionados of folk as the seán-nós of Connemara, it has been an open secret for some years that Davey Graham has been pursuing that path to its logical conclusion, and has added the Arabic and Indian lutes, the oud and the sarod, to his repertoire of virtuosity, and, most recently, the Greek bouzouki. This CD presents the many musical talents of Davey on a tour around the globe.
