Description
Here, at last, is a comprehensive (75 minutes-plus), single-CD chronicle of the evolution of the New Christy Minstrels, beginning with their earliest recordings with founder Randy Sparks in 1962 and ending with a sampling of their first recordings in the next decade.
Sequenced in chronological order, the 25 tracks have been carefully chosen to include their biggest hits "Green Green," "Today," and "Saturday Night", standout album tracks "This Land Is Your Land," "Julianne" and "Blacksmith of Brandywine", as well as recordings that represent their best efforts to adapt to changing times "The Girl from Ipanema," "Highflyin' Bird," and "Funny, Familiar, Forgotten Feelings". Extensive liner notes by Tom Pickles accompany.
