Music reviews of 40 Years of Concert Recordings

Music Review: definitive, seminal, essential
Rating: 5 Stars

The New Lost City Ramblers started in the 1950s--and they played and recorded for 50 more years. During the "folk boom" (sometimes called the "folk threat") of the 1960s, they insisted in performing "authentic" blues and Old Time music, just as it sounded on the obscure 78RPM records that collectors like Harry SmithAnthology Of American Folk Music (Edited By Harry Smith) treasured and preserved. They did not try to "update" it, or "popularize" it or use it for political anthems--like Pete Seeger, Woody Guthrie and Bob Dylan did. The NLCR guys brought this unique and important music to an urban and mostly college-age audience.
Any "criticism" of their music could be in their "authenticity"--their insistence on sounding like the records--that they were turning southern American party and hell-raising music into formal classical music-type concert recitals.--Depends on your point of view though. This is great stuff!
Mike Seeger and John Cohen--two of the NLCR--went to Appalachia and the rural American south themselves and met and recorded and rediscovered much of the music and musicians that we associate with "roots" music and "Americana" and "folk" music today--Doc Watson, Clarence Ashley, Dock Boggs, Libba Cotten and others.
One essential detail about this CD set--it includes both "Little Maggie" and "Darling Cory"--and they don't at all sound alike!!!!
