RYLEY WALKER BILL MACKAY DOWNLOAD
Hitherto known as an instrumentalist, MacKay sings two songs. Walker/MacKay/Zerang: The Hideout 2017 Ryley Walker & Bill MacKays excellent 2015 release Land of Plenty FREE DOWNLOAD found the two guitarists locked. Protection Each record is protected within its record sleeve by a white vellum anti-dust sleeve. Swooping slide licks push back the horizon on “Pre-California” and “Arcadia” a galloping tempo and strategically situated organ harmonies invite you to imagine the anticipatory journey that preceded the jaunty salutation of “Welcome.” And when MacKay stretches out, as he does on the layered, lyrical “Dragon Country,” there’s enough tension in the exchanges between echo-drenched lead and tempo-pushing rhythm tracks that you’ll want to hang in there and see who wins. Fountain Fire, his second solo recording for Drag City, showcases both MacKay’s knacks for cohesive self-editing and elegant arranging, which make his instrumentals feel like complete songs. In fact, he’s been a fixture of Chicago’s music scene for years as both a versatile sideman and a recording artist in his own right. Bill MacKay & Ryley Walker are out playing in the fields of legendary forebears and peers alike: Fahey, Basho, Kottke, Max Ochs, our own Mark Fosson.
The visibility afforded guitarist Bill MacKay by his recent run as Ryley Walker’s right-hand man might create the mistaken impression that he’s new on the scene.
