Greatest Folksingers of the '60s

Greatest Folksingers of the '60s (1972) more music like this

by Various Artists

Not only was Maynard Solomon's Vanguard Records one of the major folk labels of the 60s (having the prescience to pick up Joan Baez early on, and then recording the cream of the singer/songwriters thereafter), but it also had the rights to record and release material from the Newport Folk Festival, giving it access to several artists who were not ...

Folk Classics (1989) more music like this

by Various Artists

Though one thinks of Elektra and Vanguard as the main record labels of the folk revival, the giant Columbia Records also made some inroads into the field, signing up not only Bob Dylan but also a wide range of folkies, from Pete Seeger to The New Christy Minstrels. This 15-track compilation delves deeper into the Columbia vault for tracks by ...

Friends of Mine (1998) more music like this

by Ramblin' Jack Elliott

Ramblin' Jack Elliott's first album for Hightone, Friends of Mine, is a thoroughly enjoyable collection of duets (and one trio) produced by Roy Rogers. There's a loose, intimate atmosphere on Friends of Mine that is instantly appealing, and his selection of singing partners -- Emmylou Harris and Nanci Griffith, Peter Rowan, Tom Waits, John Prine, ...

by Ramblin' Jack Elliott

Ramblin' Jack Elliott's early-'60s Prestige LPs Sings the Songs of Woody Guthrie and Ramblin' Jack Elliott are combined onto a single 77-minute disc on this CD reissue, with one song ("I Love Her So/I Got a Woman") deleted for space reasons. It's not as good as hearing Woody Guthrie himself, and may strike contemporary listeners as a bit tame and ...

The Ballad of Ramblin' Jack

The Ballad of Ramblin' Jack (2000) more music like this

by Ramblin' Jack Elliott

This soundtrack to the 2000 documentary film about Elliott (directed by his daughter) also serves as a pretty good career retrospective. The 20 cuts are taken from an assortment of live, studio, television, radio, and film performances from 1953 to 1998. The chief flaw of Elliott's output is that he was not an innovator. He wrote little of his own ...

The Essential Ramblin' Jack Elliott

The Essential Ramblin' Jack Elliott (1970) more music like this

by Ramblin' Jack Elliott

Elliott was the complete folksinger of the 60s, singing and yodeling traditional material derived from folk, country, and blues sources and (especially) carrying on the tradition of Woody Guthrie. This two-pocket set, some of which is taken from a 1965 concert, provides a representative sampling of his repertoire and style. William Ruhlmann, All ...

by Ramblin' Jack Elliott

If you're an old fan of Ramblin' Jack Elliott, look for few surprises now that he's jumped to the label that hosts Nick Cave, Joe Henry, and Tom Waits. This is Jack Elliott the fingerpickin' folkie, friend to Cisco Houston and Woody Guthrie, and influence of Bob Dylan. These 14 songs reflect what Jack has done since leaving the rodeo more than 50 ...

by Ramblin' Jack Elliott

A two-for-one single-disc reissue of two 1962 albums: the studio date Country Style and the live club recording At the Second Fret (here retitled Live). With a couple dozen songs in all, you get a good representation of Elliott's repertoire of the time: old country songs ("The Wreck of the Old 97," "Mule Skinner Blues"), old-school country tunes ( ...

Vanguard Visionaries (2007) more music like this

by Ramblin' Jack Elliott

One of the few folksingers as loved by Pete Seeger as by Bob Dylan, Ramblin' Jack Elliott nailed the persona of the itinerant folksinger, with his laconic yet flexible delivery and leathery image. He reflected his old-timey vocal influences without ever sounding overly affected, and he could sound rustic ("John Hardy") or steel-belted ("Black ...

Ramblin' Jack (1996) more music like this

Combining the bulks of three early-'60s Topic albums -- Talking Woody Guthrie, Muleskinner, and Roll on Buddy (which in turn were reissues of the rare late-'50s records Woody Guthrie's Blues, The Rambling Boys, and Jack Takes the Floor) -- this is a terrific collection of Elliott's first recordings.

Ramblin' Jack Elliott recorded this 70-minute session in Germany in 1980; 17 years later, it found an American release. Among the 17 selections are many -- "Pretty Boy Floyd," "1913 Massacre," "Buffalo Skinners" -- that are a standard part of Elliott's Woody Guthrie-influenced repertoire.

The Lost Topic Tapes: Cowes Harbour 1957 (2004) more music like this

by Ramblin' Jack Elliott

Born in Brooklyn, Jack Elliott reinvented himself as a cowboy folksinger in the Woody Guthrie mold (but without Guthrie's particular talent for recasting folk melodies into new compositions), and was adept at catching the nuances of rural American singing styles. He did indeed like to ramble, and he landed in London in 1955 just as the skiffle ...

Ramblin' Jack Elliot, this 1995 album (his first after more than a two-decade hiatus from the studio) goes to show, only gets better with age. The 70-something-year-old voice resonates here with the long miles and experience it once just impersonated, the distinctive guitar playing likewise aged into a rich and mesmerizing style. Elliot also ...

Brooklyn's most famous folk cowboy, Ramblin' Jack Elliott was part genuine preservationist and part a walking, talking pastiche of Woody Guthrie crossed with a back-porch Appalachian moonshiner. The public act sometimes gets in the way of the fact that Elliott was an excellent interpreter of American traditional folk material, carefully ...

Best of the Vanguard Years (2000) more music like this

by Ramblin' Jack Elliott

It might be tempting to look at Ramblin' Jack Elliott as a folksinger from a bygone era except for a couple of things. First, he's still with us around the turn of the millennium, and still recording vital material such as 1999's The Long Ride; next, even his older material never strikes the listener as out-of-date. In fact, his performances on ...
