Nickel Creek
Few artists will offer the story of a lighthouse, sung in the first person, but Nickel Creek has a flair for the unusual. "The Lighthouse's Tale," is but one of a dozen good reasons to enjoy this self-titled release. Produced by Alison Krauss, it features an eclectic collection of material, original and borrowed. Highlights include the ...

Previously available on two separate 1955 Folkways LPs (Birds, Beasts, Bugs and Little Fishes and Birds, Beasts, Bugs and Bigger Fishes), this CD combines both of these children's records onto one disc, complete lyrics included in the accompanying booklet. As the titles make plain, the songs were devoted to animals of all sorts; Birds, Beasts, ...

Folk Music of the World

by
Pete Seeger
A CD compilation of two albums Pete Seeger recorded under the same title in the late '50s, Folk Music of the World sounds like Seeger's response to Theodore Bikel's big-selling series of albums devoted to the local folk music of various countries. There's little attempt to be "faithful" in any literal sense, as Seeger performs all of the songs in ...

Burl Ives
This collection gathers over 100 Burl Ives recordings on four discs, featuring multiple versions of his signature tune, "Wayfaring Stranger," which was a smoothing out of an 1830s religious folk tune, and several turns on his 1947 hit with the Andrews Sisters, "Blue Tail Fly," including studio, live, and radio takes. Nothing here is startling or ...

by
The Chieftains
In the Chieftains' four decades of recording, they've changed labels a handful of times, and each label has seen fit to record at least one or two collections of the band's output under their tenure. At this point they have so many best-ofs and greatest-hits compilations, it's tough for the listener to know the best of what they're actually ...

In Real Time: Live '87

by
Fairport Convention
Not a genuine live album (applause and audience ambience are grafted on to studio cuts), this somewhat misleadingly titled and packaged record did mark the group's brief return to major-label activity, in association with its own 20th anniversary and Island's 25th anniversary. Some of the playing is too loud, especially the amplified fiddle, but ...

"Look Across the Water/Mrs Garden of Troup/The Keelman Ower Land" was as traditional a reel as you could get, accept for the fact that its main melody came courtesy of ...

This ambitious project covers a lot of ground, including folk songs, poetry set to music, Bach, and even Shakespeare sonnets set to music or narrated by actress Meryl Streep. The guest list ...

You don't have to be a kid to appreciate this collection of children's folk songs, which are drawn from previously issued CDs on the Red House label. Luckily, its roster includes artists with a real affinity for this genre: Tom Paxton, for one, devotes a big chunk of his repertoire to songs for kids. The lyrics and music here boast a playfulness ...

Before any insurgent country diehards rush out to purchase this album, they should be forewarned: it's a collection of children's songs -- though not necessarily an album for children.
