Free Music Notes for The Asch Recordings, Vol. 1-4
Free Music Review: Great Collection of Guthrie
Hit: 4 Stars
No complaints other than the sound quality--which isn't very good. It's O.K. on some songs, but all in all, it's pretty poor. Everything else is great and at about fifty cents a song it's a really good deal. The liner notes are really great as well and there's a pamphlet for each CD. I've just recently started to listen to Woody Guthrie but have been a Dylan fan for a long time. It's really neat to see all of the similarities in some of Dylan's early work with Guthrie's. Dylan's CD "Good as I Been to You" actually has a few songs that are on this CD. That's a great album as well--1991 I believe. All in all a great deal and great music.Free Music Review: As much a "document" as a set of recordings
Hit: 4 Stars
This is my intro to Guthries lesser known works. Like good Dylan (Bob) or Hemingway, it's storytelling at its finest. In addition to the dark and blue songs, you'll find funny ones...reflecting all aspects of the complex human character of common people. Guthrie's consistent cadence throughout this large volume of work can grate at you if you don't listen to it among other music. Among other music, it is refreshing in its underproduction. But, the sound re-mastering still leaves the quality with much to be desired. Overall though, a fine musical set. No regrets here. I recommend it.Free Music Review: Guthrie Box Set

This is a great collection. The recordings are great, and there is a lot of information provided in each cd booklet.
