The Last of the True Believers

Lo amé. Es muy tierno, la voz de Griffith se siente como una caricia. A su vez es tan confesional que logra conquistarte.
Amo a las mujeres del folk.

County fair bandstand filler. Awful.

Nope. Simply not for me, sorry, nope :-(

En general bien, y las 3 últimas me las he guardado: "Love's Found a Shoulder", "Fly by Night" y "The Wing and the Wheel". Han caído varios de este Country más light cantado por voces femeninas que merecen la pena. Este tipo de música es difícil que la escuches en España en la radio así que bien venida a mi colección.

definitivamente é country. não é dos piores que passaram por aqui não, mas ainda não é mto bom.
mto triste porque a capa desse album eh bonita pra caraio. a música, nem tanto

This was pretty good. Well played, well sung, good songs. No complaints.

I tried. I promise. But I just can't with this country stuff.

The gentle delicacy of her voice with what I detect to be influences from James Taylor, Joan Baez, and even Stevie Nicks make this more enjoyable than I would usually find this type of country music.

i don't like country

Seems like pretty boring country?

More country! As always with stuff like this I like lively songs more than slow, sad ones, and songs with interesting stories over love songs. So I didn't love the whole thing, but a couple of them got me thinking.

"Banks of the Pontchartrain" was one that stood out; I'm a sucker for a train-riding travel song. Her cousin Libby's going to be standing by the tracks when she arrives, so obviously we're in the country now, since doing that at Penn Station would be a little more complicated.

"Love at the Five and Dime" reminds me of when I worked at a Woolworth's in the 70s and the attached luncheonette was going to be shut down by the health department, so everyone on the restaurant staff had to work overtime all night long cleaning it up. My heart goes out to those workers now, though at the time I just thanked the fates that I was in the music department and didn't have to deal with that.

And "Looking for the Time (Workin' Girl) had a good attitude - yeah, you leave that working girl alone if you're just going to waste her time, ok?

I can see why this is good and has been included in the book, though for me a whole record of it took a bit of patience. I wish there were a couple instrumental songs on here, since it sounded like the backing musicians were really good (Béla Fleck is on banjo!). But it's a vocal album, so I shouldn't complain that there are too many vocals.

3 stars

Love it. Among my favourite discoveries via this project.

Not a country fan by any means but I really enjoyed this. Couple of tracks towards the end weren’t bad but nothing great and that cost it the full 5 stars

Really pleasant to listen to, and Nanci has a gorgeous voice. Love At The Five & Dime might now be one of my favourite country songs. My issue is that it kinda meanders into slight repetitiveness. Makes it a fair bit less outstanding. A high 3

Pretty standard country music.

Nothing very major. Average country from the era. Maybe even earlier. Sounds pretty, good background music

Consistent top to bottom. I kinda like a twangy country voice, so I don’t mind this. But there’s not much range in either tempo or vocal range. It’s pleasant, but doesn’t rise above three stars for me.

Had never once heard of this person, but it's good!

3.5 not my genre, but solid country.
