Description
The first ever reissue of Dorothy Carter’s 1978 folk/psych/drone masterpiece. A truly unique album in her catalog of otherwise traditional psaltery folk music, Waillee Waillee‘s essence sits in the confluence of Dorothy’s mastery of the dulcimer; its shimmering notes fully enmeshed with the tremulous, cavernous drones of Bob Rutman’s bowed steel cello. The core of this album, Dorothy’s only with a full band, lies in the contradiction of traditional psych-folk idioms and the minimal avant-garde. Her influence on Laraaji’s body of work & playing is also clear upon listening to the transcendental tones of Waillee Waillee.
CD version comes packaged in a standard jewel-case and includes an 8–page booklet.
Remastered by Jeff Lipton of Peerless Mastering from long-lost master tapes found in Bob Rutman’s house in Berlin.
