Thread Name: Review: Time-Life Folk Years Collection
Subject: Review: Time-Life Folk years Collection
I just recieved this as a gift from my husband and while I really don't think it's a good representation of "the Folk years" I am enjoying it very much, especially the Tim Hardin songs.

If you aren't familiar with this collection, it's a digitially remastered selection of 8 CDs thematically grouped into double cds titled as:

Blowin' in the Wind
Yesterday's Gone
Reason To believe
Simple Song of Freedom

The double Cds attempt to capture the theme with their selections.

The collection was advertised heavily on late night televison for a couple of years but is being phased out and will soon be unavailable. It was purchased at a close-out price for me.

I'll post the selction list a little later.

Does anyone else have this collection?

keep in mind - I'm a little younger than most Mudcatters (not much though). I was born in 1964, so this is more the music of my childhood than of my political awakening.
