Back To The Wall album
Used - LP - 7
1978 Original. "Back To The Wall" stands as a testament to the intricate artistry of one of America's esteemed fingerstyle guitarists. Lang, a notable figure from the American Primitive Guitar movement, offers an album rich with acoustic innovation and technical prowess. Each track captures Lang's adeptness at blending traditional folk roots with complex, modern acoustic techniques. The album showcases a spectrum of moods, from contemplative and serene passages to vibrant, dynamic sequences, all executed with precision and emotion. Recorded during a period when acoustic guitar was vying for broader recognition in popular music, "Back To The Wall" serves as an homage to the expressive capabilities of the instrument. It features Lang's original compositions alongside interpretations that highlight his dexterity and inventive spirit. His influences, ranging from blues to classical, subtly infuse the album, offering listeners both depth and diversity in sound.

The Thing At The Nursery Room Window
New - LP - C 1034
Sealed Stereo 2nd Issue Of The 1973 Recording. “Comparable To John Fahey, Robbie Basho, And Leo Kottke, Peter Lang Was Among The Acoustic Guitarists Who Came Out Of The "Picker" Genre In The '60s And '70s. The Pickers, As They Were Called, Played Unaccompanied Solo Guitar And Made Instrumental Folk Their Specialty. Lang Isn't As Well Known As Either Fahey Or Kottke, Although He Is A Talented And Expressive Musician In His Own Right. A Lot Of Pickers Recorded For Fahey's Takoma Label, And It Was For Takoma That Lang, In 1972, Recorded The Thing At The Nursery Room Window. This Is Essentially A Folk Recording, Although Lang's Brand Of Folk Easily Incorporates Elements Of Southern Country Blues, Bluegrass, And Appalachian Music. Lang Is An Impressive Improviser, But He Doesn't Beat His Listeners Over The Head With Technique. Although The Minneapolis Native Has Impressive Chops, He Never Lets Them Get In The Way Of His Down-Home Charm, And He Never Has A Problem Coming Across As Warm, Unpretentious, And Earthy.” – Alex Henderson, All Music Guide.
