2.0 out of 5 stars Not Music But An Audiobk, March 14, 2000
By 
Paul Morris (Tempe, Arizona) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Chieftains: Authorized Biography (Audio CD)
This is not a four cd music anthology. It is an audiobook, the authorized biography of the Chieftains. There are 12 tracks of songs but the rest is narration (read by Nanci Griffith) and interviews with other folk artists (Jackson Browne, Art Garfunkel, etc.). It is for Chieftain fanatics and of little interest to Nanci Griffith fans (like me).

4.0 out of 5 stars The Long Black Veil, May 24, 2001
This review is from: Chieftains: Authorized Biography (Audio CD)
I thought that this was an excellent cd! With guest vocals like Sting, Mick Jagger, Van Morrison and Tom Jones, you can't go wrong! Sounds like an unlikely mix but they pull it off so well. My favorite Cheiftains album right after Tears of Stone!
