The Essential Kingston Trio

The Essential Kingston Trio (2006) more music like this

by The Kingston Trio

The Kingston Trio were the planet's most successful vocal group from 1958 until around 1962, and if they didn't exactly start the urban folk revival, they were instrumental in its sudden accessibility, as labels scrambled to sign up every acoustic player in sight to cash in on the Trio's marketability. This was a group that placed four albums ...

Capitol Collectors Series

Capitol Collectors Series (1990) more music like this

by The Kingston Trio

The first serious compilation of the Kingston Trio's work is broader than any of the various "best of" albums that ever showed up on LP, although it also lacks some important tracks that were on those 12" discs ("Take Her Out of Pity" is especially missed). The Dave Guard era is especially well represented and at the time of this disc's release, ...

The Greatest Hits [Curb] (1990) more music like this

by The Kingston Trio

Greatest Hits collects 12 tracks recorded during the Kingston Trio's tenure with Capitol Records in the '50s and '60s, including the original versions of "Tom Dooley," "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?" "A Worried Man," and "Scotch and Soda." This collection is a good bargain for the budget-conscious. Al Campbell, All Music Guide

Where Have All the Flowers Gone: The Songs of Pete Seeger

Where Have All the Flowers Gone: The Songs of Pete Seeger (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

After listening to this multi-artist two-CD celebration of Pete Seeger's songs, you'll be delighted to read in the liner notes that it's "just the beginning of at least four volumes." Producer Jim Musselman calls the package a "labor of love," and that's clearly what it was. Musselman did a terrific job of choosing the songs from Seeger's vast ...

Nick, Bob & John: The Final Concert (2007) more music like this

by The Kingston Trio

Founded in 1957, the Kingston Trio brought an accessible and commercial face to the emerging folk revival, and while the group was frequently criticized for their complete lack of authenticity in the face of real traditional music, there is no denying that without their frequent presence on the pop charts into the early '60s, the folk revival ...

Lonesome Picker Rides Again (1971) more music like this

by John Stewart

This is former Kingston Trio member John Stewart's first of two long-players on Warner Brothers during the singer/songwriter epidemic of the early 1970s. Lonesome Picker Rides Again (1971) echo not only the laidback sound of the era, but also the Northern California vibe that was likewise influencing the work of Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison, the ...

Sold Out/String Along

Sold Out/String Along (1992) more music like this

by The Kingston Trio

By 1959, the Kingston Trio had reached mass popularity, won a Grammy, and had even begun to record their music in stereo. While their reign as the world's most popular folk act remained unchallenged, many within the folk community were critical of the group. Writers in magazines like Sing Out! argued that the trio's music had little to do with ...

New Frontier/Time to Think

New Frontier/Time to Think (2000) more music like this

by The Kingston Trio

These two albums paired on one CD make for a strange pair of bookends, since the title song of The New Frontier was John Stewart's salute to the Kennedy era and the penultimate song on Time to Think was Stewart's memorial to the late president. The mix of songs is extremely diverse and, if not the group's ideal repertory, shows off their ability ...

The Lost 1967 Album: Rarities, Vol. 1 (2007) more music like this

by Kingston Trio

This disc contains a baker's dozen of never before released studio recordings by the John Stewart-era Kingston Trio. After co-founder Dave Guard (guitar/vocals) was replaced by Stewart (guitar/banjo/vocals) in 1961, the combo -- with Bob Shane (guitar/banjo/vocals) and Nick Reynolds (guitar/vocals) -- continued on, albeit declining in success as ...

California Bloodlines/Willard (1989) more music like this

by John Stewart

This German import contains some of Stewart's most powerful work. California Bloodlines offers 12 original tunes backed by Nashville's finest studio musicians. Willard Minus 2, though not so powerful as Bloodlines, still features many great snogs (two tracks missing from the original) and a good cast of musicians. Highly recommended. Chip Renner ...

The first two Kingston Trio albums from the John Stewart-era in the group's history, paired together on one CD. The two albums (both of which reached number three on the charts in 1961 and 1962, respectively) represented a look forward and back, introducing some gorgeous new songs by Stewart on the studio album and adding fresh interpretations of ...

Bombs Away Dream Babies (1979) more music like this

by John Stewart

After departing the Kingston Trio and struggling for more than a decade to find success with his critically acclaimed folk albums, John Stewart finally reached his commercial peak with 1979's Bombs Away Dream Babies. It hit the Top Ten and temporarily turned him into a "new" pop star at age 40. Stewart's folk leanings are evident on this album, ...

...From the "Hungry I" (1959) more music like this

by The Kingston Trio

The Kingston Trio's self-titled debut album, recorded in early 1958, had been successful in capturing their range, but not the excitement or the good humor that the group generated on-stage. Their second LP, recorded live at the Hungry i in San Francisco on August 15 and 16, 1958, just a few days after the debut LP's release, captured a better ...

The Best of the Decca Years (1998) more music like this

by The Kingston Trio

By the time the Kingston Trio ended up on Decca in early 1964, they were already established stars of the folk music set. But as a commercial entity, they had arguably peaked, losing original member Dave Guard and replacing him with John Stewart. But the group soldiered on for four more studio albums and the best of it is collected here on this 16 ...

The Cumberland Three's second and third albums combined on one CD, and reissued in the wake of Ken Burns' Civil War series. Songs of the Civil War are spirited performances, based on arrangements by Oscar Brand or the group members, with only one original ("Bessie") by John Stewart, that fits in perfectly with the period material.

Wires from the Bunker (2000) more music like this

by John Stewart

There is quite a tale concerning how these "lost tapes" of John Stewart, recorded from 1983 to 1985, came to the light of day. The liner notes tell the saga of a dusty box of dusty tapes in a dusty garage, being very poorly duct-taped by Stewart, and then mailed to his friend Tom Delisle in 1991. Stewart, a humble sort of musical celebrity, was ...

Kingston Trio #16/Sunny Side! (2000) more music like this

by The Kingston Trio

The pairing of these two albums makes sense in that they followed each other very closely in recording date (early/middle 1963) and also in the choice of material ("Desert Pete" from Sunny Side! was a conscious attempt to emulate the success of "Reverend Mr. Black" from Kingston Trio #16). The strength of Kingston Trio #16 more than makes up for ...

If ever there was an enigma in American music, John Stewart is it.
