Since 1990, Glasgow’s Richard Youngs has been meshing the structures of folk music with the textures of avant-garde experimentation, sustaining unbearable and yet egoless levels of shamanic intensity that are profoundly transportative and quietly devastating.
Summer Through My Mind, his 90th album, shares as much with the expansive acoustic retro-Americana of Gillian Welch’s Time (The Revelator) as it does with La Monte Young’s mystic minimal drones, and is an ideal entry point to Young’s peerless oeuvre.
