Colors of the Day, Best of - Judy Collins

Label: Elektra Records

Excellent compilation of Judy Collins work. Like most compilations of artists with expansive catalogs, one LP does not do her career justice but like a lot of "Best of" records, it works well as a representation of her catalog. This LP does include her cover of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now", which was used to excellent effect in a season of Mad Men. "This is where I grew up..." -Don Draper

We Shall Overcome - Pete Seeger

We Shall Overcome - Pete Seeger
Label: Columbia MONO CL2101
This record is really a benchmark within the folk industry as it was so influential to so many other, including a young Bob Dylan. Included in this live set recorded at New York's Carnegie Hall is "Who Killed Davey Moore", "Who Killed Norman Jean" "A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall", and "Keep Your Eyes On the Prize". Folk music is where a lot of rock music owes its roots. Well, that and the blues too.A quick word on the record: This record has been shown some love as it does have some edge wear on the jacket and some surface noise on the record itself as it plays. It is however an original MONO release on Columbia Records. So, there's that...
