Release Notes:
Sir Richard Bishop, the fair knight of the
international guitar underground, lays bare his
heart and soul on Polytheistic Fragments, his first
record for Drag City and sixth in his growing solo
canon. The album revolves around pieces improvised
and composed, and stretches and tweaks Bishop's full
arsenal of tricks and bones - quiet folk and country
acoustics, electric slide ragas, piano weepers,
flamenco and Gypsy strains, and even an ode to the
oud. His extensive world travels as a lone nomad and
as part of the Sun City Girls (R.I.P.) flowing
through his fingers, the Sir is the shit.
