The Very Best of Peter, Paul & Mary [Warner/Rhino]

The Very Best of Peter, Paul & Mary [Warner/Rhino] (2005) more music like this

by Peter, Paul & Mary

It speaks well for the continued viability of their catalog (probably second only to Bob Dylan's among '60s folk artists) that this is only the sixth compilation ever done on Peter, Paul & Mary's music in four decades of musical activity -- and since one of the others was a Readers' Digest mail-order release and two of the others were done for ...

Ten Years Together: The Best of Peter, Paul & Mary

Ten Years Together: The Best of Peter, Paul & Mary (1970) more music like this

by Peter, Paul & Mary

For many years, this 13-song collection was the best introduction to Peter, Paul & Mary that one could find. Not only did it contain all of the trio's hits, but it was also, until 2005's Warner/Rhino compilation The Very Best of Peter, Paul & Mary, the closest thing to a cross-section of the group's sound that existed. From the acoustic folk sound ...

The Complete Greatest Hits

The Complete Greatest Hits (2002) more music like this

by Gordon Lightfoot

Rhino's 2002 collection The Complete Greatest Hits is certainly welcome for presenting what is essentially all of his most popular songs on one 20-track disc, but, the thing is, that's actually a trickier task with Gordon Lightfoot than you might think. On both volumes of Gord's Gold, he re-recorded early songs and mixed them with current hits -- ...

The United Artists Collection

The United Artists Collection (1993) more music like this

by Gordon Lightfoot

This double CD contains all four of the Toronto singer/songwriter's '60s studio albums (the live LP Sunday Concert, not included here, was also released in the '60s). On these records, his resonant vocals, lyrical ambition, and melodic strengths produced as close a rival to Bob Dylan as Canada ever fashioned during that decade, and foreshadowed ...

The Best of Gordon Lightfoot

The Best of Gordon Lightfoot (1989) more music like this

by Gordon Lightfoot

A compilation of material Lightfoot recorded for United Artists in the '60s, and this features the best of that period, including Lightfoot standards such as "For Lovin' Me," "Early Morning Rain," and "Canadian Railroad Trilogy." William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide

A Song Will Rise

A Song Will Rise (1965) more music like this

by Peter, Paul & Mary

By their fifth album, Peter, Paul & Mary had fallen into a consistency of approach that could be viewed as either dependable or predictable. This had the usual assortment of traditional songs ("Motherless Child," "The Cuckoo"), songs that had first gained an audience during prior folk revivals ("Wasn't That a Time"), a bit of original material, ...

Nashville Rebel [Box Set]

Nashville Rebel [Box Set] (2006) more music like this

by Waylon Jennings

It may be hard to believe, but it's true: Legacy's four-disc 2006 box Nashville Rebel is the first comprehensive, multi-label Waylon Jennings retrospective ever assembled. During the peak of the CD box set reissue boom of the late '80s/early '90s, Waylon did receive a quasi-box in the form of 1993's Only Daddy That'll Walk the Line: The RCA Years, ...

Elvis [1973]

Elvis [1973] (1973) more music like this

by Elvis Presley

Ten tracks, all leftovers from previous projects, appeared in an ugly cover with nothing on the back except ads for other Presley Product. Still, what was left off of Elvis's albums is more revealing than what went on: "It's Still Here" and "I Will Be True" are Elvis at the piano sans backing and they are glorious. Worth the price of the whole ...

Vanguard Visionaries

Vanguard Visionaries (2007) more music like this

by Ian & Sylvia

Founded in 1950 by brothers Seymour Solomon and Maynard Solomon just as the LP format was taking hold (it had been introduced to the market two years previously), Vanguard Records took full advantage of the longer playing time afforded and began life as a classical label, moving easily into jazz, then gospel, bluegrass, blues, and folk (as Joan ...

Classic Masters

Classic Masters (2003) more music like this

by Gordon Lightfoot

The Gordon Lightfoot entry in EMI's Classic Masters series of discount-priced compilations is a typical effort and not much different from the numerous best-of releases previously issued from Lightfoot's five-album tenure on United Artists Records, 1966-1969. At the time, Lightfoot was better known as a songwriter than as a performer, and his UA ...

Carry It On [Bonus DVD] (2003) more music like this

by Peter, Paul and Mary

Peter, Paul & Mary's multi-decade career is for the most part well summarized, and certainly extremely well packaged, on this four-CD, 90-track box set. As with many such boxes, there's too much on here if you're not a devoted fan, and too much in particular from their post-early-'70s recordings, which take up all of disc four. But it does, of ...

Early Morning Rain: The Best of Gordon Lightfoot (1976) more music like this

Early Morning Rain is a budget-line, 12-track sampler of Lightfoot's early recordings, featuring versions of "Early Morning Rain," "The Last Time I Saw Her," "I Want to Hear It from You," "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face," "Did She Mention My Name," "The Way I Feel" and "Does Your Mother Know." There are better collections of this material, ...

Catch the Wind (1970) more music like this

by We Five

The latter-day incarnation of We Five covers a bunch of late-'60s folk-style ("Early Morning Rain," "Here Comes the Sun," etc.) numbers on Catch the Wind. Mike Stewart and company were trying, and the arrangements were pleasing, but the music was prettier than people wanted. Bruce Eder, All Music Guide

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

by Ian & Sylvia

Best of the Vanguard Years marks the first upgrading of the Ian & Sylvia CD catalog with an improved version of The Essential Ian & Sylvia; with cleaner mastering and some songs added (most notably a pair of numbers -- the best here -- from the Live at Newport disc issued in the '90s) for a total of 25. The sound is an improvement over the earlier ...

At 15 songs per CD -- equaling 120 total -- this chronicle offers a healthy sampling of popular folk music covering dozens of known and forgotten singers and bands. The emphasis of the collection is on popular folk ...

The Complete Vanguard Studio Recordings (2001) more music like this

by Ian & Sylvia

It's good to have this four-CD box set of everything Ian & Sylvia did in the studio for Vanguard, as their valuable contributions to folk and folk-rock are (several decades later, anyway) underrated. There are a few things that could have been added to the package to make it more definitive, though. The set includes all of their first six albums, ...

Songbook [Box Set] (1999) more music like this

Gordon Lightfoot's Songbook is a career-spanning, four-CD, 88-song box set with a pretty chronologically even balance of material from the mid-'60s through 1998. It also has 15 previously unreleased cuts, as well as his 1962 debut single, "(Remember Me) I'm the One"/"It's Too Late, He Wins" (which is lame MOR Nashville country). One could quibble ...

Side one of the original LP version of their fourth album continues in the eclectic folky style of their earlier albums, containing only one original (Tyson's "Marlborough Street Blues"). The other cuts include the fine Gordon Lightfoot title track, a Johnny Cash cover ("Come in Stranger") that heralded their increasing interest in country & ...

Beautiful: A Tribute to Gordon Lightfoot (2003) more music like this

Otherwise, the roster mixes some Canadian, or at any rate Canadian-based (in Jesse Winchester's case), icons like Cowboy Junkies, Bruce Cockburn, and Murray McLauchlan; more mid-level acts like Blue Rodeo, Ron Sexsmith, ...
