Joan Baez

Joan Baez (1960) more music like this

by Joan Baez

At the time of its release, Joan Baez's debut album was something of a revelation. The folk music revival was beginning to gather steam, stoked on the popular side by artists such as the Kingston Trio and the Easy Riders, as well as up-and-coming ensembles such as the Highwaymen, and on the more intense and serious side by the Weavers. The female ...

The Amazing Charlatans

The Amazing Charlatans (1996) more music like this

by The Charlatans

After almost 30 years, there's finally a definitive document of one of the first San Francisco psychedelic groups -- or, at least, as definitive a document as surviving tapes allow. This compilation assembles 23 tracks from their demos for the Kama Sutra and Autumn labels, as well as a couple of later sessions recorded at San Francisco area ...

900 Miles

900 Miles (2006) more music like this

by Bethany & Rufus

The first thing that comes to mind when listening to this fascinating folk duo -- vocalist Bethany Yarrow, daughter of folk legend Peter Yarrow, and veteran five-string cellist Rufus Cappadocia -- is a slightly darker and more gritty Tuck & Patti, mostly due to the sparse production and Yarrow's compelling, low husky tones. But while Tuck & Patti ...

Try Me One More Time

Try Me One More Time (2007) more music like this

by David Bromberg

Had David Bromberg been making new recordings all along, then Try Me One More Time would be a welcome addition to his catalog. An all-acoustic, solo set of blues and folk tunes -- one original, several traditional and the rest by established writers such as Bob Dylan, Rev. Gary Davis and Robert Johnson -- the album feels intimate, honest and ...

Folk Classics

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 ...

Gathered in Song

Gathered in Song (1999) more music like this

by Damien Jurado

Sub Pop (Damien Jurado's regular recording label) describes him as "a modern-day urban folk singer from Seattle." While Gathered in Song has a folksy feel to it, Damien Jurado is not the next Joan Baez. Recorded onto two-track without losing one bit of feeling, the songs are told in a storylike fashion that draws listeners in and causes them to ...

American Folk Music

American Folk Music (2000) more music like this

by Various Artists

A bit like a single-disc, condensed version of Harry Smith's famous Anthology of American Folk Music (most of these tracks can be found there), this fine compilation features commercially released 78s from the 1920s and 1930s, and pretty much covers the gamut of early American vernacular music, with a fair sampling of Cajun, country-blues, gospel ...

Dear Companion

Dear Companion (1995) more music like this

by Carolyn Hester

Two-CD, 60-song compilation of 1960s recordings including both of her Columbia albums, her 1965 Dot album That's My Song, a couple of 1962 cuts ("My Love Is a Rider" and "Gregorio Cortez") whose initial release is unhelpfully unidentified in the liner notes, her two 1966-67 folk-rock Columbia singles, and no less than 18 Columbia outtakes and ...

Buell Kazee Sings and Plays (1958) more music like this

by Buell Kazee

Originally recorded in 1958 for the Folkways label, Sings and Plays is now available on CD and cassette on a made-to-order basis, ordered directly from the Smithsonian label website. These 18 sides include as much oral history as they do fine banjo frailing. Kazee's expert clawhammer playing is the reason this collection remains essential for fans ...

Joan Baez Ballad Book (1972) more music like this

by Joan Baez

At a time when Baez was changing labels and branching into contemporary folk and country styles, Joan Baez Ballad Book harks back to her roots. Vanguard released this generous compilation of traditional Anglo-American folk ballads (culled from Baez's early-'60s material) as a double-LP (later reissued as two separate LPs). Taken en masse, the ...

Feel Good Day (1998) more music like this

by Continental Divide

Continental Divide is a quintet of proficient instrumentalists and vocalists. This contemporary bluegrass group can trade leads and present varied vocal arrangements for lively and shifting acoustic material. They represent a condensation of a long tradition and a daring, contemporary approach to the genre. Bluegrass, country and Americana nestle ...

Anthology of American Folk Music, Vol. 1-3 (1997) more music like this

by Various Artists

Originally released in 1952 as a quasi-legal set of three double LPs and reissued several times since (with varying cover art), Anthology of American Folk Music could well be the most influential document of the '50s folk revival. Many of the recordings that appeared on it had languished in obscurity for 20 years, and it proved a revelation to a ...

Jean Ritchie and Doc Watson at Folk City (1963) more music like this

by Jean Ritchie and Doc Watson

According to reissue annotator Joe Wilson, Doc Watson and Jean Ritchie had never heard of each other before they got together for a concert at Folk City in 1963, which says something about the 40-year-old Watson's obscurity at the time and about his limited knowledge of other performers, since 39-year-old Ritchie had been recording for more than a ...

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 ...
