Live/1975-85

Live/1975-85 (1986) more music like this

by Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band

Long before he sold substantial numbers of records, Bruce Springsteen began to earn a reputation as the best live act in rock & roll. Fans had been clamoring for a live album for a long time, and with Live/1975-85 they got what they wanted, at least in terms of bulk. His concerts were marathons, and this box set, including 40 tracks and running ...

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 ...

Around the Campfire

Around the Campfire (1998) more music like this

by Peter, Paul & Mary

Including four new tracks, the two-disc set Around the Campfire is an excellent overview of Peter, Paul & Mary's career as it nears the four-decade mark. As indicated by the title, the focus of the collection is to shine a spotlight on songs that express ideals of community, tunes commonly sung in schools and churches as well as at more intimate ...

Naturally (2005) more music like this

by Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings

Following up her excellent 2002 debut, Sharon Jones stays true to the formula she laid down on her early releases and Dap Dippin' by presenting another session of full-force funk that pays homage to the genre's glory years without coming off as contrived. The deep funk revival continues with Jones belting out commanding vocal performances that are ...

The Asch Recordings, Vol. 1-4 (1999) more music like this

by Woody Guthrie

Woody Guthrie's Asch Recordings, Vol. 1-4 is another shining example of Smithsonian/Folkways' ability to create a historically important document that is both fun and enriching. Combining four separate compilations (This Land Is Your Land: The Asch Recordings, Vol. 1, Muleskinner Blues: The Asch Recordings, Vol. 2, Hard Travelin': The Asch ...

We Shall Overcome: The Complete Carnegie Hall Concert

We Shall Overcome: The Complete Carnegie Hall Concert (1989) more music like this

by Pete Seeger

We Shall Overcome: The Complete Carnegie Hall Concert shows that Pete Seeger was at his apex as a performer and as an influential figure in the surging folk movement when John Hammond turned on the Columbia Records tape machine to capture this performance. Out flowed stories, traditional songs, covers of songs by new songwriters like Bob Dylan, ...

Folkways: A Vision Shared - A Tribute to Woody Guthrie & Leadbelly

Folkways: A Vision Shared - A Tribute to Woody Guthrie & Leadbelly (1988) more music like this

by Various Artists

This is a solid collection of alternately exuberant and faithful covers of the songs of Woody Guthrie and Leadbelly. Great cuts are Little Richard's fuel-injected "Rock Island Line," and Springsteen's "Vigilante Man." Bob Dylan does "Pretty Boy Floyd." Richard Meyer, All Music Guide

American Favorite Ballads, Vol. 1 [2002]

American Favorite Ballads, Vol. 1 [2002] (2002) more music like this

by Pete Seeger

The title of this reissue might seem straightforward enough, but before discussing the music, its exact contents need some explanation. In the late '50s and early '60s, Seeger did five volumes of a series entitled American Favorite Ballads. Although this CD is called American Favorite Ballads, Vol. 1, it is not the same as the first of the ...

Presenting/In Person

Presenting/In Person (2003) more music like this

by The New Christy Minstrels

The New Christy Minstrels took ensemble folk music to its logical conclusion. Many vocal groups utilized three or four participants, allowing for multiple lead singers and smooth harmony. The New Christy Minstrels consisted of 14 players, creating something akin to a choral group capable of handling complex arrangements of overlapping male/female ...

American Patriot

American Patriot (1992) more music like this

by Lee Greenwood

Spurred on by George Bush's unofficial adoption of "God Bless the USA" as the new American anthem, Lee Greenwood recorded American Patriot in the midst of the President's (ultimately unsuccessful) re-election campaign in 1992. American Patriot sealed Greenwood's stance as American songteller extraordinaire. Every song on the album is, ...

Moving (1963) more music like this

by Peter, Paul & Mary

The trio's second album is a little less distinctive than its predecessor, which doesn't mean that it isn't a beautiful record -- just less obviously compelling in its melodies, and perhaps slightly less optimistic in mood. Having expended some of their best material on their debut, the trio reached further for songs here, including the Paul ...

The Greatest Songs of Woody Guthrie (1972) more music like this

by Woody Guthrie

A two-record set released on one CD, this collection of great Woody Guthrie songs performed by some of Guthrie's apostles, as well as by Guthrie himself, serves as a nice overview of his music. From the opening notes of "This Land Is Your Land" and a composite arrangement that starts with Guthrie and his guitar, then folds into the Weavers ...

Smithsonian Folkways American Roots Collection (1996) more music like this

by var art

This assemblage of blues, bluegrass, mountain ballads, topical songs, and jazz shows the wide range of American vernacular music, and Smithsonian Folkways' commitment to it. Among the many highlights here are Clarence Ashley and Doc Watson's ragged and yet sleek version of "The Coo Coo Bird," Doug Wallin's creaky and breathless a cappella version ...

Greatest Hits (1957) more music like this

This is an excellent double-disc compilation of this group's more directly folk-related work from the mid 50s to the mid 60s. Note, however, that these are not the original Weavers recordings of their hits. William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide

A Proper Introduction to Woody Guthrie: This Land Is Your Land (2004) more music like this

by Woody Guthrie

There are countless Woody Guthrie compilations on the market, most of which draw on either his early-'40s recordings for Alan Lomax or the Moe Asch recordings from later in the decade. In Guthrie's case, it hardly makes a difference, since his approach and sound are the same in both instances, a mix of traditional folk songs with poignant ...

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

by Cisco Houston

Of the singers who brought folk into the modern era around World War II, Cisco Houston seems to have less name recognition than either Woody Guthrie or Leadbelly. Not a songwriter himself, Houston did a great deal to promote the songs and legacy of Guthrie during the mid- to late-'50s, and a number of songs on this recording come from Cisco ...

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 ...

Fisherman's Blues [Collectors' Edition] (2006) more music like this

by The Waterboys

Mike Scott had been pursuing his grandiose "big music" since he founded the Waterboys, so it came as a shock when he scaled back the group's sound for the Irish and English folk of Fisherman's Blues. Although the arena-rock influences have been toned down, Scott's vision is no less sweeping or romantic, making even the simplest songs on Fisherman ...
