[PAR] [TLE] John Fahey (musician) [SEP] John Aloysius Fahey (February 28, 1939 – February 22, 2001) was an American fingerstyle guitarist and composer who played the steel-string acoustic guitar as a solo instrument.  His style has been greatly influential and has been described as the foundation of American Primitive Guitar, a term borrowed from painting and referring mainly to the self-taught nature of the music and its minimalist style.  Fahey borrowed from the folk and blues traditions in American roots music, having compiled many forgotten early recordings in these genres.  He would later incorporate classical, Portuguese, Brazilian, and Indian music into his œuvre.  He spent many of his later years in poverty and poor health, but enjoyed a minor career resurgence with a turn towards the more explicitly avant-garde, and created a series of abstract paintings during the last years of his life.  He died in 2001 from complications from heart surgery.  In 2003, he was ranked 35th in the "Rolling Stone" "The 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time" list. [PAR] [TLE] Kevin Kelley (musician) [SEP] Kevin Daniel Kelley (March 25, 1943 – April 6, 2002) was an American drummer, best known for his work with the rock bands The Byrds and the Rising Sons.  Kelley also played drums for Fever Tree, although it is unknown whether he was an official member of the group or not.  In addition, he worked as a session musician between 1969 and 1973, playing drums on albums by artists including John Fahey and Phil Ochs.  He appears to have retired from the music industry after drumming on Michael Cohen's 1973 album, "What Did You Expect?"  Kelley is the cousin of country rock pioneer and ex-member of The Byrds and The Flying Burrito Brothers, Chris Hillman.  Kevin Kelley should not be confused with the similarly named Kevin Kelly, another American session musician who played piano for Joan Baez during the Rolling Thunder Revue and guested on albums by Tim Buckley, Judee Sill, Bryn Haworth, and The Babys during the 1970s.
