I spoke briefly with 12-string guitarist James Blackshaw tonight after his wonderful set at the Drake. He autographed the last three copies of All Things are from Him, through Him, and in Him that he had available for sale. The CD is his first collaboration with lutenists Josef van Wissem. The duo call themselves Brethren of the Free Spirit. I couldn't find a review online of this recording, but here's one of their followup: The Wolf Shall Also Dwell With The Lamb. I'm keeping one. The others are 14.99 each.

We expect copies of Blackshaw's most recent album, The Glass Bead Game, on vinyl very soon. Listen to an interview with Blackshaw on BBC Radio 4.
