Guitarist Jack Rose died in 2009 at the age of 38. His virtuoso fingerstyle and restless explorations on the guitar (modal epics, bottleneck laments, uptempo rags) reveal the connection between tradition and pulsating modernity. Jack Rose's lively guitar plucking evokes a special attentiveness, something ancient and American, like the heavy air before a thunderstorm.
Jack Rose's work remains in the continuum of traditional American music: alongside gospel, early jazz, folk, country blues, John Fahey, Robbie Basho and other idiosyncratic American musicians such as Albert Ayler, the NoNeck Blues Band, Captain Beefheart and Cecil Taylor. Originally released in 2006 as a self-titled album on the Archive label, it was later re-released under the name Dr. Ragtime and His Pals.
Tracklist:
01. Miss May's Place
02. Revolt
03. Bells
04. Knoxville Blues
05. Soft Steel Piston
06. Linden Avenue Stomp
07. Blessed Be The Name Of The Lord
08. Walkin' Blues
09. Buckdancer's Choice
