John Fahey
John Fahey was an acoustic guitar player. He is credited with starting a genre 1960's known as "american primitive guitar". He drew influnce from blues artists such as: Charlie Patton & Bukka White. As well as influnces from indian music ala Ravi Shankar and the classical music of Bela Bartok and Charles ives. Creating his own eccentic and original style using bluesy syncopated rhythms usually used to accompanying blues vocals, but instead applied to neo-clasical instrumental compositians. In 1959 he co-founded Takoma Records, that would, along with his albums, also supported the recordings of various other like minded guitarists such as; Leo Kottke, Robbie Basho, and Peter Lang. In the late 1970's he began to suffer from a drinking problem and Epstien Barr sydrome. This caused his touring and recording output to slow to a crawl; and thus, he drifted into obscurity and poverty during the 1980's. in the 1990's he had a comeback of sorts, releasing albums such as City of Refuge & Womblife using heavy elements of Avant-Garde music, which he had been experimenting since the 1960's. In 2001 John Fahey passed away after undergoing a sextuple bi-pass operation. He is remembered as a giant of 20th century music and as the godfather of modern solo acoustic guitar.
The Urban Dictionary Mug
I love it! Thanks! So
Great present for a retiring colleague with custom saying she's known for!
Loved this mug! So unique and you can edit the text to add something unique.
I gave it to my friend who took money from me and never returned.
I love the fact that I was able to customize my name since I've never been able to find anything with my name. The only downside is it's smaller than I thought it would be (I guess I didn't pay much attention to that), wish it was bigger, only about 10 oz total.
It's simply awesome; and plus, the word means a lot.
Really fast and looks great! Took a chance on Christmas gift and it was a success!
Awesome mug feels really nice good weight and color although I think the shade could be a little brighter when it comes to the highlighter yellow, I am still pleased with the outcome and the fact that a whole passage was so neatly printed onto the product, very pleased with the packaging too! That made it so easy to wrap just in time for Christmas. Who knew!!
okay so the mug was mid but when you have a genz meme and give it to one of the most serious people you know then it's pretty funny
Nice mug, great feel‼️
Perfect!
Good quality ceramic cup! Worth the novelty price!
Perfect gift for my gf
Looks great! Came quick
Gave it to my nerd brother. He used it consume liquid
Love it
as a fan of non-Z-generation-UD (since 2000 more or less) , especially of old-school definitions ("phat!") (as Nick, the more time passes by, the more I reach my inner age = 75 XD) , I totally appreciated the delivery in time for Christmas! (whispering) Perhaps printing quality in the Spain printing company is not as good as in the US, but - hey! - I got it before Christmas as a gift for my thank-God-non-Gen-Z-sister! ;) hugs from the eighties, and from Italy, and thanks!

This is SO cool. Morning coffee will always memorialize my new addition to the English lexicon.
Too inappropriate
Item came at appropriate time in good condition.
