Editorial Reviews

Jonathan Edwards is a sort of folk/country/rock singer who issued numerous albums throughout the 1970s, some of which have never seen the light of day on compact disc. Our previous issues of Lucky Day, Sailboat & Rockin' Chair have been big hits for us. We now proudly present one more of his albums for the first time anywhere on CD! Live! was originally issued in 1982 on Chronic Records. This was a small independent label and received limited distribution; so many fans may not even realize this album exists. They will be ecstatic when they hear about it, especially now that it is remastered for compact disc! Song selection includes Edwards' most famous hit - Sunshine - and his popular song Shanty, also known as the 5:00 Friday song to DJs across the country.

I saw Jonathan Edwards in Northampton, Mass. last fall, and he was every bit as entertaining as he was in the 70's and 80's. He even sang "... Hall of Fame". Here is a man who never sold out, never needed super star status, but has continued to give his all for his fans. What a terrific entertainer; want a terrific evening.

I bought this live album, new, back in 1986, and have been playing it on my old, mono, record player ever since. What a pleasure to have it on CD! The biggest treat is an almost eleven minute version of Shanty, as well as a version of "Sail Boat", which, for some reason, he didn't do in concert. But, really, the whole CD is great. To any and all fans, if you don't have this CD, do yourself a favor and get it.
