4.0 out of 5 stars The best of Early John Hartford, February 17, 2003
By A B Brocklehurst (New Zealand) - See all my reviews
I've loved and listened to John for years but never heard his early stuff which was recorded on vinyl and long out of print. If that's you, then this is the album you should buy. If you have never heard John singing such numbers as'Corn Cob Blues" or 'Shiny Rails of Steel' or the version of 'Gentle on my Mind' which are on this disc, then here's a treat in store for you. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars it's about time!, September 17, 2002
By A Customer
This release offers more tracks than the RCA Legends CD, many of which are not available elsewhere. This is from the time when many of us were introduced to John, plucking that banjo in the audience on the Glen Cambell show. No, it's not bluegrass. It's Jimmy Stewart meets Bob Dylan! I don't know what it is, but it's great listening. The Country Legends disc is probably stronger, song for song, but the quality here is good, and a lot of fans would probably want both CD's. My favorite album "Gentle on my Mind and other Originals" is well-represented here. Go for it.

5.0 out of 5 stars In my opinion, the most impressive of John's many years of recording..., July 13, 2008
Gotta say that this is, in my opinion, John's most important years as a songwriter. Many will argue that his most prolific material came during the Mark Twang and Steam Powered years. Not so!!! Given the era, the location, and the state of popular country music in the late sixties/early seventies, I would venture to say that these first few albums are nothing short of groundbreaking. He was accomplishing things with country and folk music that I don't think had ever been attempted up to that point in the Nashville recording scene. Long, string heavy orchestrations driven by banjo and fiddle tunes. Beat poetry to the backdrop old time mountain music. Three finger banjo fused with phsychedelia. It's all there and it's all phenominal. A must have for anyone that is a fan of John's music!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for Hartford fans
Ok, I am a John Hartford fan. Wish the CD quality was more "real" but I feel that way about a lot of these recent transfers. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars who is this guy?
John Hartford doesn't seem to be able to decide whether he is a banjo player or a singer or a composer. Read more
