Thread Name: Musical Traditions Records - CD sets
Subject: RE: Musical Traditions Records - CD sets
Folktrax has some very good music. Their CDs, though, are taken directly from older tapes without remastering, so the sound quality tends to be subpar. Packaging is virtually non-existant--the CDs have no real label, and they come in the kind of envelope that once housed 5-1/4 inch floppy disks. Notes are meager to none.

Nevertheless, Folktrax--Peter Kennedy's label--is a source for much music that's otherwise unavailable. CAMSCO Music, of course, carries the entire catalog. (Folktrax doesn't accept credit cards, so CAMSCO is apt to be the only realistic source for many.
