London: Studio Vista Limited, 1970. Hardcover. Near Fine/Fine. First edition of this biography and musicological analysis of the Mississippi guitarist Charley Patton (1891-1934), known as the "Father of the Delta Blues" for the enormous influence he exerted on succeeding generations of blues musicians. Fahey (1939-2001) was himself an enormously influential steel-string guitar player, generally recognized as the progenitor of the "American Primitive" fingerstyle genre, whose technical lexicon drew heavily on the country blues model. Charley Patton was originally written as Fahey's 1966 master's thesis in folklore at UCLA, and includes transcriptions and textual analyses of all of Patton's extant songs. The book is rooted in Fahey's deep appreciation for the Delta blues tradition, and stands as one of the more impressive examples of an American musician reflecting on the history and lore of their craft. Small octavo (5 x 8 in.); 112pp., with selected discography… Read More

Middletown, CT: Wesleyan University Press, 1979. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Inscribed first edition of this 1979 collection of essays, mesostics, and other procedurally generated writings by the avant-garde American composer. The title work is a text-score in which chance operations are used to systematically deconstruct the journals of Henry David Thoreau--a tactic born of Cage's interest in "demilitarizing" language by making it less understandable. Other pieces include a long anecdotal poem relating to Cage's macrobiotic diet, and the "The Future of Music," which was essentially the last of Cage's nonfiction works written in a traditional essay format. Quarto (8.25 x 9.5 in.); ix, 187pp.; black cloth boards, white spine titles, in dust jacket. Neatly signed and inscribed ("For Jo") by Cage, in red felt-tip pen, on the half-title page. Light foxing to edges of textblock and sporadically to interior; boards lightly shelfworn; mild musty… Read More

J. Maisonneuve et Ch. Leclerc. Paris. 1889. FIRST EDITION. 8vo. (9.9 x 6.4 inches). vii, 300pp. A very good copy in a fine early leather binding of full dark green morocco. Spine with gilt ruled lines, floral design and lettering. Front board with ruled panels and floral designs, all in gilt Single gilt ruled border to the rear board and board edges. Gilt inner dentelles. Marbled endpapers. All edges gilt. Armorial bookplate of noted author of books on folklore and topography, Sir George Laurence Gomme (1853 - 1916) on the front pastedown. Some offsetting to the endpapers from the leather turn-ins. A little rubbing to the extremities and the spine faded to an attractive brown but overall still a lovely copy of this scarce work in a fine quality binding. The binding is unsigned but is certainly the work of a master bookbinder.
