A sound that has never been duplicated. Three musicians sounding like a band of four or five. Jack Bruce played a wicked harmonica. The production of the the vocals is stunning. What a harmonious blend of talent. "Fresh Cream" will stand the test of time as one of the best albums in rock music history!

Hot bluegrass music from the Wilburn Brothers. These two gave a spark to bluegrass music from 1950's! They were some of the first recordings to break into national popularity. Their recordings have been covered by a wide variety of country/bluegrass artists. All bluegrass music lovers are indebted to the wonderful songs and arrangements of these two talented brothers. If I had a bluegrass jukebox (great idea!), the Wilburn brothers would be A1 and B! buttons!Hot bluegrass music from the Wilburn Brothers. These two gave a spark to bluegrass music from 1950's!

The recording will surely make you want to see Stacey Kent live sometime in Seattle. Hope she has her fine band on this recording who are really terrific. A band can "lift" a singer from ordinary to extraordinary. (See how I did that?) Stacey Kent is the hottest female jazz vocalist working the tour circuit today!!

Remember the recordings well. All top rate and I am all in on waiting approximately 10 or more years for one of the presently 3 existing copies in the KCLS catalog. They may be all missing or destroyed by then but I have a positive attitude (and believe in the tooth fairy), so why the hell not be another hold to make me 203 and waiting!
P.S. My husband made a KCLS patron review in, wait for it, …………...2014....that KCLS may want to order additional copies. He really could see the future back then!! No wonder I married him!!Remember the recordings well. All top rate and I am all in on waiting approximately 10 or more years for one of the presently 3 existing copies in the KCLS catalog.

Das Boot has probably more glowing film reviews (the feedback has been strong) by KCLS patrons. Two pages of reviews that library patrons felt moved to write after seeing the film. So I watched the film and agree......DAS BOOT IS A MUST SEE MOVIE!!! Read the wonderful reviews after watching the movie.

Patron Derringer (review below) has it all except that these recordings, for those of us who graduated from high school in the "60's", was some of the finest folk music of that era! For me, Gordon Lightfoot is simply a Five Star Recording Artist!

Rani Arbo is a children's singer with her own group of singers and musicians. It is done with a flavor of folk and bluegrass children standards. Excellent for a parent to play with their children. A good way to also teach a child many new words with fun music. It is a pure joy for any family to enjoy together!Rani Arbo is a children's singer with her own group of singers and musicians.

Ian Tyson went from the folk group Ian & Sylvia to being a Canadian Country Western singer. Always admired by other musicians and songwriters, Ian dedicated himself to making music that will be remembered for generations to come. Many current musical acts will recreate his musical creations. "Longview" is the only live recording of Ian Tyson and his country western music. Ian is the top of my list of inspirations when I sing with my brothers in our musical performances in King County Libraries!Ian Tyson went from the folk group Ian & Sylvia to being a Canadian Country Western singer.

The Ford Family has a famous member Robben Ford and the not so famous Charles Ford. Once they were together in a blues band in the 1990's in the East Bay of the Bay Area in California. That is when I first heard the Fords and they were very impressive. Hear this band for yourself. You might just see them hit a musical nerve in your body that you hadn't previously known to exist!The Ford Family has a famous member Robben Ford and the not so famous Charles Ford.

Reggie Young has passed away which is a shame because I would love to hear more recordings by him. The KCLS has the only two albums that are presently available and both are true gems. I look for music I may have somehow missed. Possibly you haven't heard these recordings either, but you may have heard his guitar on many popular recordings by other artists.Reggie Young has passed away which is a shame because I would love to hear more recordings by him.
