This recording consists of all the tracks from "The Yellow Princess", 1968 - and all the tracks from "Requia", 1967 - except for the first two parts of Requiem For Molly - which no-one is likely to miss.

Fahey was at his highest point in the mid to late 1960s - and this recording captures him beautifully.

Contains the same tracks as "The Essential John Fahey".
