It was what it was.

A charming interpretation of classic 'songbook' numbers by a pioneer of the post-war recording age.

There is absolutely nothing to dislike.

Nonetheless, it didn't really inflame the senses.

Something of a churlish comment perhaps, but as someone who's listened TO A LOT OF FOLK over the years not one that rings altogetherly hollowy.

Trois etoiles.

Now we wait while ButtonZ uses one his many sock-puppet accounts to review the secret scores and vote in a way that deliberately annoys me. sad yes

Typical Dylan bores, more on his non-cover than about the original song.


Anyway, I'm giving this **** It's good, but not quite as good as the Folk songs vol 2 we did the other day.




Can we do this one at Christmas?
