How We Love Joseph Spence!

Joseph Spence- Happy All The Time



Biography:
"Born on the island of Andrus in the Bahamas, Spence created an idiosyncratic (and inimitable) guitar style rife with percussive and improvisatory vamps around staid hymns and such "square" standards as "Coming in on a Wing and a Prayer." He was a folk guitarist's Thelonious Monk, and his growling vocal counterpoint and surprising inventions are one of folk music's great delights."

Album Review:
"Waxed for Elektra in 1964, this has better sound than the Folkways recordings and offers some of Spence's most percussive playing."
