John Fahey lived from 1939 to 2001. Not only was he an excellent and inventive guitar player, he was also the fellow who tracked down and "rediscoverd" blues great Bukka White by sending a postcard to Aberdeen Mississippi.

I did not know that Fahey was responsible for Bukka White's rediscovery. The world is a wonderful place for having gotten to hear both of them!
