5.0 out of 5 stars This is the classic Bards ..., May 13, 2005

By	Falcon (Selden, NY) - See all my reviews

that we all love from the Renn Faire or the occasional convention. Full of fun with some of the sweeter melodies such as "Wild Mountain Thyme" this is the Bards at their best. If you're like and fell in love with these guys at a Faire or con, then this is surely the CD for you.

4.0 out of 5 stars Captures the spirit of their live show., May 19, 2004

By	James B. Rimmer "Rimbosity" (San Diego, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The live show.

An audience in garb laughs and claps and sings along. Marc dances around as Andrew tries to maintain sanity. Sometimes.

It's the best thing about the Bards.

The Bards have recorded a tremendous library of old Ren Faire favorites, original songs, folk music, and the occasional Tom Lehrer tribute piece, and dominated the World Music charts on the old MP3.com.

A Faire to Remember captures the spirit of their live Ren Faire show; they recorded the songs the way they're performed, and even threw in "A Short Interlude" to keep the banter going. As I listened, I felt like they were with me in my living room, talking to me, while I laughed and clapped and sang along.

If you like the Bards' music and haven't heard them live, the free-form approach of A Faire to Remember is as close to being there as you can get. You owe it to your "elf" to get this CD.

A Faire to Remember is the best CD to get to introduce yourself to the Bards with. It has most of their funniest songs on one CD. Its a great buy for anyone with a good sense of fun!
