about

Dipping into this languid and smokey standout from drummer José Medeles’ Railroad Cadences & Melancholic Anthems, a drum and guitar tribute to the musical spirit of the late guitarist and DIY iconoclast John Fahey, you’d scarcely be able to guess the duet with guitarist M. Ward was entirely improvised. “You can hear him as a songwriter...a brillant songsmith, brilliant guitar player,” Medeles says. “When we end, you’d think we’d work that out. But we didn’t.” Like the album’s other stunning tracks, more Fahey-inspired improvisations from Medeles with Marisa Anderson and Chris Funk, respectively, “Richness of Peace” captures a snapshot of a specific moment in time, with two players listening and meditating on Fahey’s idiosyncratic rhythmic character. “It’s past physicality. You’re not thinking, you’re listening,” Medeles says. “Things like that don’t happen if you have any hang ups.
