Captain Beefheart once commented how much he loved painting the desert because it was "subtle, so subtle".

The same can also be said of John Fahey's guitar playing. The work collected for this Best Of has a unity of approach that defies the eighteen-year period it draws on without ever seeming static. Constantly shifting melodically, tonally and harmonically, the music develops through subtle intuition rather than creative leaps and bounds.
