Before I continue on with the year end countdown, I need to take a moment and acknowledge the very sad news that Jack Rose has passed away. He was only 38 years old and had already ensured his place in the pages of musical history for his work in the influential experimental band Pelt and by way of his own incredible guitar mastery that took up where John Fahey left off. If you have never heard Rose, please check out his solo work as well as his work with Pelt. Rose had recently signed to Thrill Jockey who will release his final album in February. Arthur Magazine has compiled a small collection of songs and videos of Jack playing here.
