Review of RALPH's unreleased demo comp tape from 2017



https://www.facebook.com/ralphkralphkralph

Finally able to listen to tapes!!!! First one on is Ralph's "The Wichita Line Cook (Compilation Jan to Nov 2017)". It's pretty weird (thank God), as to be expected of him. Everything from "harsh noise" to field recordings to what I call "Robert Johnson by way of Daniel Johnston". But now I'd add Danielson Famile and "old-timey bluegrass" on AM radio as descriptors. It's good stuff!!!! I don't think he has it up online, but here's his "regular" stuff...
