MERRELL FANKHAUSER “SIGNALS FROM
MALIBU”
This
legendary guitarist was given some mysterious radio signals recorded underwater
off the coast of Malibu. Not only were they eerie and mysterious, but they were
inspirational as well, as Merrell Fankhauser heard music within and chose to
write songs working off what he was hearing from these strange signals. Also fun
is that he chose to work mostly in the terrain he got started in back in the
early sixties—instrumental surf guitar. He does a wonderful job with these ten
songs offering a variety of moods, subtle stylistic shifts, and interesting
arrangements. But it his relaxed west coast sensibility that brings a calmness
to these melodies, even on the nice rockers like ‘Mysto Spot’. This is a lovely
little treat to fill out your Merrell Fankhauser record collection. He is still
going strong and is definitely one of the most interesting musicians that all
too few people have heard of, despite over 50 years in the business. It is not
too late to get your ticket for your space age ride with Merrell
Fankhauser.
