Slow Flow Echoes

On a Slow Flow Echoes, one of the slowest of guitarists, Will Ackerman. He’s got a new album, but we’ll listen-back to a collection from a few years ago,  drawn from his romance with Italy, called Positano Songs. We’ll hear that and some downtempo electronics by Fade.

Will Ackerman

In the beginning, there was Will Ackerman. The guitarist and founder of Windham Hill Records launched a movement in 1976. He created a new wave in music that brought new acoustic instrumental music into the mainstream. It was 50 years ago that he founded Windham Hill Records with his debut album. We profiled Will and Windham Hill earlier this year. Today, I talk to will about his new album, Home, and a state of mind where the end is much closer than the beginning.

Will Ackerman: I feel the clock ticking, you know. I mean I’m not gonna be here forever. and it’s not as if I need to pour something out, but if I’m utterly connected to it, if I feel that I’m really expressing whatever is in my heart, then I’m doing what I’m supposed to do.

John Diliberto talks to him about this Autumnal recording on Echoes from PRX.
