Thin White Rope - The Napkin Song
Copping their name from ***[William S. Burroughs](https://cutt.ly/knKjvcv)*** euphemism for ejaculation, ***"Thin White Rope"*** was founded in Davis, California in 1984. Although the time and place of their formation aligned them with both the Paisley Underground and roots rock movements, the group quickly staked out its own musical territory, divining their own unique brand of dark, surreal, desert rock.
***"Thin White Rope"*** was led by singer/guitarist ***[Guy Kyser](https://cutt.ly/UnHksbT)***, whose harsh, tightly coiled vocals and unsettling lyrics combined to give the band its edge; in the group's first incarnation, Kyser was joined by guitarist ***[Roger Kunkel](https://cutt.ly/ynHkhgk)***, bassist ***Kevin Staydohar*** (soon replaced by ***Steven Tesluk***), and drummer ***Jozef Becker***.

***"Sack Full Of Silver"*** is the band's fourth full-length album, released under the ***"Frontier Records"*** in 1990.
The album blend’s the group's early alt-psychedelic influences and a growing taste for dusty Americana flavors, defined by the voice of ***Guy Kyser***: the aural equivalent of the flat, parched, endless landscape his characters seem to inhabit.

***”Sack Full Of Silver”*** summed up different inspirations by coining a free-form guitar rock in which improvisation plays an important part, but always at the service of melody and atmosphere in general. The "narrative" pieces (the heroic Americana) make particularly effective use of these sonic architectures on the verge of Hendrix-ian dissolution. Others, wrapped in those delicate cartilages of chords on which Kyser's ineffable baritone slides, seem like impressionist sketches, blurred by a strong oneiric quality.
It is not surprising then that ***”Thin White Rope”*** use oriental dances, as in the epic ***”[Whirling Dervish](https://cutt.ly/lmuZ7tY)”***, or full scale feedback, as in ***”[Diesel Man](https://cutt.ly/dmuZ8er)”***, to make even more abstract music that is more and more a theory of itself. Nor that the solemn gospel of ***“[The Ghost](https://cutt.ly/nmuZ5bj)”*** rises to immortalize an album-hydra, with a thousand flavors, and an almost baroque perfection. In all the pieces the country base is very strong.

***”The Napkin Song”*** is the fourth song on ***”Thin White Rope”*** fourth album ***"[Sack Full Of Silver](https://cutt.ly/umurW6x)"***, released in 1990. under the ***"[Frontier Records](https://cutt.ly/inKjjFP)"***.
