Free Music Notes for Songcatcher II: The Tradition That Inspired the MovieFree Music Review: Even Better Hit: 5 Stars
For those who say they were disappointed in the original "Songcatcher" collection this second edition might help. No, it doesn't contain music that was in the film (something that would be pretty pointless given that music of the music in the film was short snippets) but is a collection of traditional folk recording from the archives of Vanguard records. Worth getting if you didn't like the original. Worth getting even if you did.
Free Music Review: Handed down. Hit: 5 Stars
I grew up here in southern Kentucky along the Cumberland Gap. This music rings in my childhood memories. My Mama and aunts and cousins sittin around on the porch of Aunt Marthys playin an singin these and other songs. Some words are different from the ones recorded (Songcatcher) like the song of Barbry Allen. But these are songs that I now sing with my daughters and hope they sing with theirs someday. I hope they won't be lost.
Free Music Review: folkmusic Hit: 5 Stars
I watched the movie, Songcatcher, and became interested in the music. Folk music, like this, is purely American. It may have its foundations in many cultures, but its roots are here, just like America. This compilation is one of several I own, and it is a very good, diverse sampling of this soulful, heartfelt music. I throughly enjoy it.
Free Music Review: Songcatcher II The Tradition Hit: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful CD. It has songs that are in the movie, but are done by mainstream artists. I have enjoyed comparing the different recordings of the same song, and how the different accents and vocal qualities change the music. It's also a wonderful way to understand the folk music better.

songcatcher is a movie soundtrack. we liked the movie as well as the soundtrack. song catcher II is the actual music from the actual people who live in the hills. they live a simple life and their music is simple as well. we give the soundtrack high marks but think we like this one better.
