I haven't explored Sun City Girls as much as I'd like, though I do have and rate fairly highly Torch of the Mystics. It doesn't help that most of their stuff is OOP and difficult / expensive to buy.

I have some solo albums of Richard Bishop, SCG guitarist, that are mainly him on acoustic guitar and some piano. He's a mesmerising guitarist, also fully self-taught I believe. Fingering the Devil is a good one. An interesting character: as well as a musician I understand he's an occultist and dealer in rare occult books. When I say occultist I mean that he's a practising sorceror who, from what I've read, obtains magical power from an entity he knows as Kali.

I had no idea about the latter (I mean, I knew Rick Bishop was strange but I didn't think so hehe). As I understand it, the cassettes are considered anthological relics by the little mass reproduction (or more or less I think it was like that), I personally have only listened to your material in MP3 (Bandcamp, YouTube and other sites) mainly because of my lack of financial resources (but let's face it ..... who wants to realize that ...)
F for whoever reads this.
