Podcast 191: Glenn Jones

On this week’s Fretboard Journal Podcast, we talk to guitarist
Glenn Jones (Cul de Sac). Glenn will be participating in the
forthcoming The 1000 Incarnations of the Rose festival taking
place April 13-15, 2018 in Takoma Park, Maryland. The festival is
a three-day long celebration of the American Primitive guitar
movement, as pioneered by John Fahey and Robbie Basho.


Over the course of our talk, Jones describes his lengthy
relationship with Fahey (and Basho), why you probably shouldn’t
befriend your music heroes, his guitars of choice for this style
of music and the origin of the unique, one-off festival taking
place in Fahey's old hometown.
