Like the simple lines that grow and unite to form the majestic landscape on the album cover, details of all magnitudes were given equal significance on Music By William Eaton, the 1978 private-press release from the Phoenix based experimental luthier. As a builder of one-of-a-kind stringed instruments, Eaton considered the full life cycle of each material used to build his 6-string, 12-string, or 26-string wooden apparatus preserving the heritage of the timber from seedling to raw wood through eighteen untitled autobiographical pastoral instrumental pieces.
