Synopsis

Album Description
One of America?s greatest singer/songwriters returns with one of the finest "live" CDs of roots music ever made...recorded at northern California?s idyllic Kate Wolf Music Festival. The only artist to appear every year in the festival?s history, he has a strong emotional connection to the event and these stunning performances reflect it. 9 tracks are previously unrecorded and the other 20 are classics with all-new and surprising treatments. Proceeds from this project go to support Jugalbandi, a "Music and Arts as Education" program in northern California.

CD Reviews

It's a home run....

"I bought this two days ago and haven't stopped listening to it. The set has 9 or 10 songs that have never been recorded, like 'Slow Food', which I heard Greg sing and have been waiting for him to record it. The set is very similar to Dream Cafe, Further In & Poet Game CDs. Serious Gregheads will no doubt add this to the collection. For me the cut that makes the whole disk is "Two little feet". Wow is all I can say! There isn't anything you can drink, smoke or snort that will make you feel better than Greg's music does. Greg is a genius songwriter, and his music satisfies some deep primal need we all have to feel satisfied and fulfilled inside, even though we may not know what we are looking for. You won't be dissapointed with this CD"
This is what music should sound like

"Greg Brown's newest release has already embedded itself into my list of one of the best Cds I've ever listened to. I just saw Greg at the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass festival in San Francisco and was left with a warm fulfilling feeling that only great music can give you. Greg Brown has a way with words and has a voice that just takes you over. The fact that this CD was recoreded at different performances dosent take away from the continuity of the album, but im my mind adds to it. You can really get a feel for Gregs deep connection with Kate Wolf and the festival. I recommend "Kate's Guitar," "Lullabye," and "Two Little Feet.""
