A bit of a break from our regularly scheduled polyphony, I grant you that, but the subject matter (from the book of Revelation) and the purveyor (Saint Johnny) are no less sacred. I love the rolling rhythm of this one, and the depth of the other instruments augmenting the jangly guitar.

That galloping guitar plays the same role as the piano in “Erlkönig.” Must be that white horse {goosebumps!}.
You’re so right Sue! And now I’ve got Fisher Diskau singing in my head. *Awesome.*
