Jack Dowland and Blind Joe Death - T01523658186

MacGregor explores the idea of John Dowland as an early travelling blues musician, interweaving his beautiful lute songs, pavanes and galliards transcribed for piano with transcriptions of the legendary guitarist John Fahey. Like Dowland's lute, Fahey explored myth, love and death, with the help of his alter-ego, Blind Joe Death.
