5.0 out of 5 stars The ultimate folk music concert, August 1, 2007

This review is from: This Land Is Your Land - The Folk Years (DVD)

This was one of the American Soundtrack series concerts originally aired on PBS in 2002, and includes all the great names of early folk music. Although the sound is not perfect, it is still highly acceptable, and this nearly two hour concert features a cornucopia of American folk music from the fifties and sixties. I personally enjoy this concert and others in the series not only for the music, but also to actually see what some of these people look like, since much of this type of music went out of general circulation before I was born. If you enjoy folk music, I highly recommend this DVD.

I was a little weary about buying this dvd because of the negative review concerning the sound.
I bought it and let me reassure you the Sound Is Fine and the concert was wonderful. The performers sang the songs with passion and meaning

You wont be disappointed

I attened High School from 1962 to 1966 and grew up on this kind of music. So anybody in their mid 50's should enjoy this DVD. You can't avoid singing along while clapping your hands. If you have kids or grandkids you can show them what real music and real singing was in "your days"!
