| | Tamarack Frobisher Bay CD Tamarack Discography of CDs
Tamarack's Frobisher Bay is a "down north" musical journey that is alternately ethereal and passion-drenched, opening on a haunting, reflective note with "Days of Sun and Wind" before the trio sound manifests itself in a more traditional mode, full force, on the rousing "Oh, Klondike." The sound is somewhere between Peter, Paul & Mary, the Seekers, and Stan Rogers, weighted more toward the latter thematically -- the CD is filled with beautiful moments, but perhaps the best of them all is the title track, done a cappella and reminiscent of A.L. Lloyd's best work at its most historically penetrating. ~ Bruce Eder

The sound of this import CD is stellar. There is a chilling song, "Prisoner 562," a song to make you "think again." I can't fault a thing on this one. Buy it. ~ Chip Renner
Originally released on a small German label in 1983 and reissued with two bonus tracks by Appleseed, "A Different Kind of Love Song" is a coveted favorite among fans of Dick Gaughan, the singer-songwriter-guitarist sometimes called "the Scottish Woody Guthrie." The material is mostly topical in nature, as usual, and the title song directly responds to uninitiated listeners' complaints that "all I sing of is trouble" with the reply, "For me to help make the most people happy/I must make you even more sad and angry now...If you listen again, you might even find/All the songs I sing are love songs/But their love is a different kind."The love of which Gaughan sings on most of the CD's songs is a love of independence ...

The Kingston Trio's self-titled debut album, recorded in early 1958, had been successful in capturing their range, but not the excitement or the good humor that the group generated on-stage. Their second LP, recorded live at the Hungry i in San Francisco on August 15 and 16, 1958, just a few days after the debut LP's release, captured a better picture of their total act, distilling down a major chunk of their live act to vinyl. Dave Guard, Nick Reynolds, and Bob Shane obviously are all having a great time, and they're in top form musically, which brings the crowd (and the rest of us) along. Among the established parts of their current and future recorded repertoire represented here are "Zombie Jamboree" (identified as "the song that killed calypso") and "The Merry Minuet," interspersed with suitable live material, including "They Call the Wind Maria," featuring Shane in a breathtakingly beautiful take on the song from Paint Your Wagon. The recording was about as fine as any live music document of this period -- the microphone placement seems almost miraculous in terms of capturing the voices, guitars, banjo, bass, and bongos, plus the crowd reactions, and the only flaw (not perceived as such at the time) was that the show was recorded only in mono, which would eventually doom the album to deletion after more than a decade. There have since been other live recordings by the group unearthed from this period, and within a year they would record a concert in stereo, but ...From the "Hungry i" is still the album by which most original fans first came to take in their sound, especially as its release coincided with the rise to the top of the charts of the single "Tom Dooley." ~ Bruce Eder
Like the Weavers before them, the Kingston Trio set the pace for the folk revival of the late '50s and early '60s. Bands like the Highwaymen, the New Christy Minstrels, and Peter, Paul & Mary were inspired by the group's complex harmony, song choices, and general sunny disposition. The Kingston Trio, the band's first studio effort, unleashed the smash hit "Tom Dooley" upon an unsuspecting world. The record garnered a Grammy, sold six million copies, and stayed on the charts for almost ...
