Anthology Of American Folk Music (Edited By Harry Smith)
Various Artists

Smithsonian Folkways, 1997

Necessary.
I dont think there is a need to go into to much detail about this *6 CD* set. If you can fork over the cash, just buy it. If you have any interest in roots music, just buy it. If you thought ol' Bobby Dylan and the Band made some great weird music in the basement of ...
  
  











  



  
Birds, Beasts, Bugs & Fishes Little & Big: Animal Folk Songs
Pete Seeger

Smithsonian Folkways, 1998

Even babies love this music
I was just introduced to this music in a playgroup for 6-12 month olds. They were all babbling and playing away when we turned on "I had a rooster". Within seconds the babies were completely silent and looking towards the direction of the music completely entralled! ...
  
  











  



  
Copland: Appalachian Spring/Fanfare For The Common Man/El Salón México/Danzón Cubano
Aaron Copland, Leonard Bernstein, ...

Sony, 1990

Universal music
This recording, aside of bringing back great memories of a live performance of Mr. Bernstein more than 25 years ago directing Mexico State Philarmonic Orchestra playing Salon Mexico, is of grand quality and Aaron Coplands music selection is escellent as is performed ...

Old-Time Pickin': A Clawhammer Banjo Collection
Ralph Stanley

Rebel Records, 2008

Fine Playing
When people are talking about great clawhammer banjo players they mention Charlie Poole and others, but seldom have a heard Ralph Stanley's name. It is a shame, and one listen to this cd will tell you why. He is as underrated a clawhammer banjo player as Rob McCoury is ...
  
  











  



  
Appalachia Waltz / Ma, Meyer, O'Connor
Edgar Meyer, Yo-Yo Ma, ...

Sony, 1996

Welcome to "alternative" classical music!
It's wonderful to hear three such talented musicians put together a collection of non-classical music on revered instruments. This is not "The Yo-yo Ma Show" with two other guys! The music is varied but the performances are great and -- in some cases, e.g. Appalachia ...
  
  











  



  
Appalachian Stomp: Bluegrass Classics
Various Artists

Rhino / Wea, 1995

Best introduction to Traditional Bluegrass that I have seen
Best introduction to Traditional Bluegrass that I have seen. It has probably the best known songs in bluegrass. If you listen to bluegrass at all, you will probably know some of them. But this is only a stepping stone. From here you can move on to albums by the ...

Bernstein and Copeland
Copeland's Appalachian Spring and other suites such as Rodeo and Billy the Kid are are at their finest in the hands of Leonard Bernstein. Bernstein gives clarity and strength to America's best composer still to date. Listening to this CD is a great pleasure and ...
  
  











  



  
Heartland: An Appalachian Anthology
Bela Fleck, Edgar Meyer, ...

Sony, 2001

Exquisitely good music!
Didn't expect an outstanding cd, don't know exactly why i got it,maybe because of yo yo and bela, but every piece is played beautifully, even the vocal piece by James Taylor. The album is almost too good to be called Heartland, every piece is a class act. Bravo!
  
  











  



  
Will The Circle Be Unbroken - The Trilogy
The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Capitol, 2003

Circle Still Making the grade
I have always loved the Circle CD's but this trilogy set is totally awesome with the combination of the original players and Nitty's version all in 1 box, can't be beat.
  
  











  



  
Can the Circle Be Unbroken?: Country Music's First Family
The Original Carter Family

Sony, 2000

Carter Family
After watching the PBS special about the Carter family, and loving their music from my childhood, I wanted to hear again the many wonderful songs and sounds. I have always loved hearing the autoharp. The cd is great.
  
  











  



  
Good For What Ails You: Music of the Medicine Shows 1926-1937 (Digipak with 72-page booklet)
Pink Anderson, Gid Tanner, ...

Old Hat Records / Enterprises, 2005

Brings Back Memories to the Old (and Young)!
'Good For What Ails You' is a great set of cd's with old songs that were sung at old medicine shows. I remember some of those songs from records and radio programs from my childhood - songs that I had totally forgotten! I lent the cd's to my father, and they ...
  
  











  



  
Song of Home
James Galway, Jay Ungar, ...

RCA, 2002

Very Compelling Classy Classical Appalachian
I get home from a hard day at the office and put on my headphones and am transported to heaven. If I had only two hours left of life on earth, I would want to listen to this album for one of them and we won't discuss the other hour please! Galway, Ungar, and Mason are ...
  
  











  



  
Mountain Tracks, Vol. 5
Yonder Mountain String Band

Frog Pad, 2008

yonder greatness
This is my 3rd Yonder album. Possibly my favorite. I have two live tracks, this and the third. Both are amazing but i believe i am enjoying this cd more because of the wide range of cover songs as well as their own music. I would recommend this cd to any bluegrass fan ...
