Broadside
Ian Siegal

Nugene Records, 2009

It has been said that had Siegal been around in the sixties he would today be accorded the same reverence as artists such as Van Morrison, Joe Cocker and Eric Clapton. Instead, he is a child of the seventies who dropped out of art college in the late eighties to go busking in Germany. From the streets of Berlin Siegal progressed to clubs around ...

John Gay: The Beggar's Opera

John Gay, Roger Bryson, ...

Hyperion UK, 1992

'Back to Basics' for John Gay's 1728 hit ballad opera
This recording seeks to give us a 'Beggar's Opera' uncut, undapted & unexpurgated. That presents big hurdles for modern performers & listeners. A complete performance is roughly 50/50 song & spoken dialogue, which poses a challenge whether one uses actors-who-sing (as ...

Best of Broadside 1962-1988

Various Artists

Smithsonian Folkways, 2000

Superb slice of history
I am sure I would have loved The Best of Broadside even if had been less innovatively packaged, but the scrap-book format is an excellent idea, and the essays, notes, lyrics and discographies leave nothing to be desired. (I have to confess, though, that I'm a wee bit ...

The Broadside Tapes 1

Phil Ochs

Smithsonian Folkways, 1992

A misunderstood gem in the raw
This is not the quintesential work of excellence for the casual fan wanting to round out a "folk collection". It is, instead, a vouyeristic look into a young songwriter breathlesly exploding with creative lust. The material (never intended for public release) is more a ...

The Louisville Orchestra First Edition Series: Morton Gould (2-CD set)

Morton Gould, Jorge Mester, ...

Albany Records, 2006

As good an introduction to the music of Morton Gould as you will find, and some unexpected masterpieces too
Althoug he was something like a late starter with them ("Soundings" and "Columbia" were the first recordings of his works made by the orchestra, in 1971), Morton Gould must have been one of the favored composers of the Louisville Orchestra: All in all, between 1971 and ...

Ballads And Broadsides
Louis Killen

Topic, 2009

A dynamic singer of great individuality and integrity, Louis Killen was one of the key singers of the British folk revival of the 1960s. He was from the industrial Northeast of England and never lost his sense of place despite living in the USA for 40 years. His 1965 album, Ballads & Broadsides , was the first full album by a solo folk singer ...
