GIMMER NICHOLSON - CHRISTOPHER IDYLLS
lucky 7 records cd9204
recorded 1968
my buddy pete turned me on to this record recently. really lovely multitracked acoustic guitar instrumentals with some effects and things by SF hippie gimmer nicholson. if you like solo guitar music, this is a treasure and a treat. its not like fahey or basho, etc. it has its own thing going on. definitely new age way before new age was even conceived. i still cant believe this music was recorded in 1968. recorded at ardent studios and produced by terry manning who went on to work with power pop sensations, big star.
this record is like honey dripping into chamomile tea or a tall glass of pear nectar or sunlight filtering through a pine tree.
enJOY it!

shimmers like a sunset on golden pond
Jaw-dropping brilliance. Wow. How'd he get the guitar to ring out like that?
It's like he strung his axe with the golden fleece.
The tone is unique and inviting. It's like candy for the ears.
Nice find!
