Last Days of the Dragons is Berlin based Steffen Basho-Junghans' wondrous collection of 8 free wheeling fin-
ger picking 6 & 12 string guitar tunes & what a doozy it is! Last Days marks the third in locust's perennial
series of Wooden Guitar solo discs since the 2003 release of the compilation
of the same name.
Selected Praise:
" Basho-Junghans’ technique is diverse, and it seems as though every piece makes use of a whole new set
of traditional and experimental methods. " - Dusted Magazine
" Basho-Junghans creates a sound that´s outright amazing. When you consider that it´s all played with an
acoustic guitar, it´s almost unbelievable. " - Foxy Digitalis
" Where Fahey, Peter Walker, Sandy Bull, Basho and some others have explored before him the raga guitar
style, Steffen learned it all and transformed it to his personal style." - Psyche Van Het Folk
"He's so sure-fingered on the fretboard that it frequently sounds like there are two or three people picking
away at the steel string, but it's always just him and his craft, which by this point, he's completely mastered." -
Pitchforkmedia.com
"Junghans communicates oceans of joy and fear and sorrow and transcendence." - Inside
" I love the symmetrical composition of the entire piece, the sheets of sound that flow out of Junghans' guitar,
and the hues of each note." - John Fail, Fake Jazz.com
