so i finally found an original LP of my very favorite robbie basho record after looking for this for many years. a crazy collection of records came into the local store the other day & it included most all of the robbie basho albums (and a lot of fahey & other great stuff too). i was never happy with the mp3 rip of this album that has been floating around the internet for awhile, so here is a nice sounding new rip by yours truly with full high quality scans of the cover and insert.
enjoy this beautiful album by a truly original master american musician!
i love this and the cover is gorgeous as well! thanks for taking the time to share this greg…
many thx greg. my fave as well, after basho sings :)
such a superb sounding rip & undoubtedly the definitive transfer on the greater interwebs. i just had to creep back here to gush & humbly axe if there’s any chance ya might be equipped to give the same treatment to ‘twilight peaks’ some sweet day? you know you want to
Thanks very much for sharing, Greg
nice one greg!
Very exciting! I’ve wanted to hear this for years. Thanks for posting.
thanks Greg !!
@owl – I made a pretty decent rip of twilight peaks from glenn jones original cassette. maybe I’ll post it here soon or send it to you for holy warbles.
I heard it’s going to be reissued soon though. that’s the word on the webs…..
awwwwesome. thank you.
awesome, excellent record, thanks for this new rip!
super righteous brother gd. kindly drop it wherev & whenev the spirit might move ya. hadn’t heard any interwebular whispers of a twilight peaks reish, but what a glorious idear! hallelujah
This is so excellent. As one whose “name” is the clayton peacock and (fake) email “falconers.arm,” I think you may understand that this, truly, doth make our spirits take wing.
if anyone’s interested i cleaned up and reduced the cover image size so you can reduce the mp3 file size by about 100mb.

@owl – i sent you a special message at rolmol. peace!
Awesome! Any chance of a lossless/FLAC rip of this?
thank you for this! new to me, but very much appreciated.

Klick on the picture at the start page and go to “Special/live” in the top menu
Could you re-upload the rip to a different site, since Megaupload’s gone?
I’d love a re-up of this. I’ve been searching for the record on ebay and discogs and can’t find it.
I upt moi old acquisition of this in two pieces as together they just surpassed mf’s 200mb limit. If I were wiser I might have removed the artwork form the tags … instead: here and here
Thanks Greg – this record’s accompanied me on many a fair day and I’m extremely grateful. “Follow the milky way – Home.”
