Music reviews of 40 Years of Concert Performances
Music Review: 40 Years of Concert Performances
Rating: 4 Stars
This is what folk music was really all about. It is not slick or commercial, but it has the heart of performers who really believe in what they are doing and saying. It is a must for everyone who wants to understand our folk and country roots.
Description of 40 Years of Concert Performances
On their 20 or so studio albums, the New Lost City Ramblers come across as musical antiquarians who are as concerned with the source of an old ballad or the tuning of a banjo as they are with the performance of the song in question. But on 40 Years of Concert Recordings they drop the scholarly pose and revel in the wild, wonderful, and sometimes weird world of early 20th-century rural string-band music. The 48 songs on this two-CD set include fiddle tunes, murder ballads, train songs, political songs, and love songs, interspersed with erudite, but always witty, commentary from the band. The songs may be spooky, as on Tracy Schwarz's chilling a cappella rendition of "The Unquiet Grave," or silly, such as "Too Tight Rag," which features John Cohen and Tom Paley in a kazoo duet. They may even be recently composed, like Mike Seeger's version of the Jim Stafford hit "Wildwood Weed," but the performances are always inspired. If you want to learn the history of these old-time classics, you should track down some of the Ramblers' studio recordings and pore through the liner notes. But if you want to hear this music the way it was meant to be heard, in front of a live audience played by enthusiastic musicians, then you should give 40 Years of Concert Recordings a listen. --Michael SimmonsGeneral CDs
