Rating: happy This record left our Mingus Who? feeling happy.

C Joynes: The Running Board (Great Pop Supplement) Is a superbly packaged limited edition vinyl only release (200). The artwork features a delicate floral textile surface. I'm told this is maybe only his second long playing effort after a couple of CDR only sets and a commision for Bo Weevil. If you like James Blackshaw and the school of gentle plucking, tender emotions and thoughtful attention to his own and other (standard?/oldy worldy?) arrangements, then you'll love this veritabe mountain of guitar craftsmanship. Very limited as ever, this LP is a must for serious collectors as well as fretboard acolytes & good music lovers

What the label says:

The Great Pop Supplement takes it’s first foray into the full length market, a debut LP from Cambridge based guitarist C Joynes.
“The Running Board” was previously released as a self distro’d run of 33 CDRs, the second of which (“God Feeds the Ravens”) has now been released to widespread acclaim on the great Bo ‘Weavil label.

It is expected that this follow up will eventually follow the same route- a full length CD release elsewhere- but for now the album appears as a very limited vinyl release (200 copies) on the wax friendly GPS.
14 fabulous pieces showcasing his heavy, thumb-led finger picker technique saluting dustbowl country, ragtime ragas with more than a passing nod to the Takoma school. To borrow from a previous review:

“In a certain way Fahey was a God - and as all Gods he left a legion of followers who continue to spread his word. Some of them include , most notably , Jack Rose, Ben Chasny, Glenn Jones, Greg Malcom or James Blackshaw, just to name a few.
To this list of notable names in the exploration of acoustic guitar and the fingerpicking language a new name must be add : C. Joynes“.
