Contented Must Be,
By
This review is from: Contented Must Be (Audio CD)
Contented Must Be is a wonderfully organic recording of traditional music, the material drawn from historic archives. The musicianship is excellent, both vocally and instrumentally, yet what stands out even more is the heart and soul the work is filled with - very special.

A true delight,

This review is from: Contented Must Be (Audio CD)
Bruce Molsky is one of a group of artists, including Dirk Powell, Tim O'Brien, and others, who plays old-timey music with great sensitivity and skill. Some of the old dissonances and rhythms are preserved, but in a way that is somewhat less jarring than the kind of playing and singing you hear on old 78s, or on Harry Smith's Anthology. But this "polishing" is not in any way a taming or commodifying of the work. Rather, it brings out the strange loveliness that is already there.

I saw Bruce Molsky perform at the 2011 Celtic Colours Festival at Cape Breton Island. If you are a fan of old time music you will like this CD.
