(2021) Rick Deitrick - Coyote Canyon
Review:
Los Angeles-based, Ohio-born Rick Deitrick makes languid guitar music that feels wild and free, and rooted in the North American landscape. Coyote Canyon collects material he recorded between 1972-1975 and a long recording from 1999, and it’s a balmy mood for anyone who’s into Steffen Basho-Junghans or John Fahey. Deitrick’s music is a veritable soundtrack to long drives through hostile, naked lands. His track titles are often taken from locations that inspired his compositions: “Coyote Canyon” is an expanse behind his daughter’s house, ‘Little Tujunga’ is a river that passed by a house he lived 50 years ago and ‘Tumbleweedin’ is about a desert storm. The awe that Dietrick shows for his surrounding is retained in his playing. Self-taught, his style is notably different from that of his contemporaries – it’s not overly technical, but rich and soulful. The first seven older tracks remind of his excellent 1978 private press LP “Gentle Wilderness” (also reissued by Tompkins Square) and there’s even an alternate version of that record’s ‘For Marsha’ included here. The final track ‘Three Sisters’ though was dubbed during a studio break in 1999 and according to Deitrick describes Arizona’s barren red hills. It’s gentle, evocative acoustic guitar music.
