Music reviews of Frank Fairfield
Music Review: Elemental
Rating: 5 Stars
This guy is tremendous - he's from southern California, sings and plays fiddle, banjo, and guitar, in "old-timey" style. All the songs on this record are traditional, apparently gleaned from his collection of 78 rpm records from the early part of the 20th century. The only title I recognize is "John Hardy", which was recorded in 1928 by the Carter Family and later in the '60's by Bob Dylan. Mr. Fairfield also has another release consisting of a selection of original 78's from his collection - I'm looking forward to hearing that one as well (both these records are on the Tompkins Square label, previously unknown to me - a look at their website reveals a lot of intriguing-looking releases by additional artists). The reason I all-of-a-sudden have glommed onto Frank Fairfield is that I saw/heard him perform last weekend at the long-running University of Chicago Folk Festival (the previously mentioned Mr. Dylan played at the second one, in 1962), and he brought the house down with his spirited playing and singing, and his look - he's like a ghost from a distant past. Seek him out!
