Sandy Paton Ewan MacColl - Recommendations? (27) RE: Ewan MacColl - Recommendations? 24 Sep 02


You all had better get in touch with Dick Greenhaus at Camsco. Most of the Radio Ballads are available on CD now, and Dick either has them or can get them for you.

I think I have more MacColl albums in my collection than those of any other singer. The Prestige "Best Of" is one of the rare occasions in which a "best of" might truly live up to its name, although I am particularly fond of his Folkways "Songs of Twa Rebellions" (Jacobite Songs), many of which seem to have been included on "The Real MacColl," which I don't have. "Black and White" is a good sampling of his music, recommended for those who have, somehow, overlooked this superb singer, writer, collector, scholar, and political activist, and are unfamiliar with his work. He was a giant among the few.
