5.0 out of 5 stars
A wonderful album,
By Hellking "Hellking" (Valley Village, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Woodyboye: Songs of Woody Guthrie (and Tales Worth Telling) Volume II (Audio CD)
Bravo! The Joel Rafael Band and their guest artists (see the list in the Album Description above) have brought us a real gem with this album. They've really retained the feel of Woody Guthrie, showing their appreciation and understanding for the source material. The music that Joel wrote for Woody's lyrics are supremely appropriate and are a joy to the ear. And the original song by Joel Rafael contributes to the overall soundscape of the album rather than detracting from it (as other artists often do with their self-indulgent "tributes"). The band's interpretations of other Guthrie songs are quite masterful as well. And, ever since I first heard it, I have thought that their performance of "Way Over Yonder In The Minor Key" is superior to that of Billy Bragg (who wrote the music for Woody's lyrics). This album is a prize for any music collection.
4.0 out of 5 stars

After listening to this cd, I couldn't believe that the seller had given up his copy! I highly recommend this cd. It is filled with wonderfully poignant music. Listen to the words of the songs! Thanks Joel Rafael Band!
