John Drew Petersen – Cat’s Pajamas (CD, 1995, Gurnsey Hollow Productions)

Why This CD Matters
Cat’s Pajamas showcases warm, melodic fingerstyle guitar work rooted in contemporary folk traditions and Vermont’s acoustic music scene. The album emphasizes atmosphere, natural pacing, and handcrafted instrumental compositions rather than commercial production trends. Independent regional folk recordings like this often had very limited distribution outside local performances and specialty shops.

Collector Note
Original 1995 US pressing on Gurnsey Hollow Productions. Vermont private-press acoustic CDs from this era are uncommon and increasingly difficult to locate in new condition.
