Originally released
in 1966. Fahey's never recorded an album that was more thoroughly of its
moment. From the groovy flute and twangy sitar accompaniment to the backwards
guitar, this Birthday Party is a charmingly trippy 60s time capsule. But it
isn't a two dimensional one. The album gains immense depth from the tension
between his sweeping, fingerpicked melodies and discordant string-battery.
It's the audible battle between yearned for rose colored luminescence and
ankle blistering hellhound darkness that enables this record to transcend its
hippie dreaminess.
