Product Description

In November of 1995 Roger McGuinn began a project for the preservation of Folk Music. Each month he would record a song, print the lyrics and chords, add a personal note and put it on his web site, mcguinn.com. He wanted everyone to have the opportunity to learn the songs and to be able to sing them with their families and friends, so downloads were offered free of charge. The original recordings were 11 KHz 8-bit.monophonic WAV files, far below CD quality.He has re-recorded most of the songs in 24-bit 44.1 KHz Stereo with additional instruments and vocals. To commemorate the 10 year anniversary of the FOLK DEN, this 4 CD compilation contains 100 of his favorite songs with many of the original notes in a colorful 40 page booklet.

A Truly Exceptional and Timely Collection by Roger McGuinn.......2007-01-11

This collection of traditional folk songs, originally recorded and posted on the Folk Den website, and now rerecorded for The Folk Den Project by Byrdmaster Roger McGuinn, is truly exceptional, timely and masterfully performed. Many of the songs collected on the set have been rearranged and reworked by McGuinn with very positive results. In a number of instances the new recordings are far better than the original Folk Den versions due to the availability of new recording technology, such as in the case of the deeply moving "Ain't no more cane." An exception, however, is "America for me," which in my opinion is better in the originally recorded version (Roger's Rickenbacker 12-string is wonderful there). A must-have collection for those who love folk music with Byrds/McGuinn echoes.

Very delightful folk music.......2006-08-28

This is a very enjoyable 4 disc set. Many tracks sound like Byrds music without the percussion. The arrangements were simple. Roger McGuinn is a genius whose music is timeless!

McGuinn keeps culture alive!.......2006-05-17

Kudos to the very talented and gracious with his knowledge Roger McGuinn!

Most of you know of McGuinn's fantastic guitarmanship in rock and folk, especially his 12-string Rickenbacker sound.

The Folk Den Project is a project of love that Roger and his wife, Camilla, have worked on for over a decade. The vast number of songs, lyrics, and clips are posted on the Folk Den Website:
[...]
In 2006, some of the traditional songs he has recorded include: Molly Malone, Greensleves and Wade in the Water. The site is as valuable to contemporary traditional folk as John Playford's "The English Dancing Master", Cecil Sharp's folk song books or any of the John and Alan Lomax collections have been to folk musicians over time.

See the website and buy the CD! It is well worth it!

The Byrd Has Landed.......2006-04-30

I've read all the other reviews on this collection and I thought I had nothing to add. That's most true. The previous reviewers did a terrifc job. I was about to give up writting anything when I thought it would be nice having somebody from Brazil writting and, most of all, paying tribute to this incredible artist who is Roger McGuinn, or Jim McGuinn, which is how I still refer to him. What I mean is, McGuinn is one of those artists that trancends all boundaries, whether they are territoral or musical boundaries. I've must had heard Mr. Tambourine Man, with the Byrds, when I was 11 or 12 years old. I'm 49 now, and to this day, it stills cause me a profound effect. Hearing these songs by a man who loves them all through his life and sang and play them like no other is always an emotional journey. I agree with one of my fellow reviwers who puts McGuinn and Richard Thompson on the same level. They are still spreading, each on their own way, "the good music"; the one kind that's timeless and stills worth listening. This may sound like a clich? but it must be said. McGuinn is just superb on these recordings and you can often actually feel what he felt himself recording them. It's trully a labor of love and a gift for the generations to come. God bless you Jim.

A "must have" for Byrds fans.......2006-04-04

I've been a Byrds fan for over 20 years, and having the Byrds' first five albums was the closest thing to folk music I had until I bought Roger's "Limited Edition" CD, and even more now with "The Folk Den Project: 1995-2005". In my opinion, this compilation brings Roger's career full circle. One of my favorites on Disc 1 is "The Colorado Trail", where Roger brings out his trademark Rickenbacker 12-string. On this tune, the solo is a near combination of "Mr. Tambourine Man" meets "The Bells Of Rhymney". It really rings out in true Byrds fashion. A couple of highlights on Disc 2: "Oh Freedom", which Roger recorded during an actual thunderstorm, and is heard in the background. Also, the closing track on Disc 2, "To Morrow", is a recording of Roger at the age of 16 singing this tune. Anyone who knows Roger's history knows that he was a graduate of The Old Towne School Of Folk Music in Chicago. "To Morrow" gives listeners a chance to hear a young McGuinn in the folk mode that he would be accustomed to throughout his life and career. Disc 3 includes Roger's versions of two traditional Christmas tunes: "The First Noel" and "Away In A Manger", to put some holiday flavor into this collection. He also sings "We Wish You A Merry Christmas" on Disc 1, and "The Twelve Days Of Christmas" on Disc 4. Speaking of Disc 4, the only Byrds tune featured in this collection is on this disc: "Wild Mountain Thyme", a song from the Byrds' "Fifth Dimension" album. The collection concludes with two folk classics: "Home On The Range" and "When The Saints Go Marching In". Chances are that if you sang folk songs in school, as did I, at least one of them is likely to be found among these CDs in true folk style that Roger has created, as he has said, "for the preservation of the music I love". This was the popular type of music people were listening to and playing until the Beatles and the Byrds and the British Invasion made rock & roll all the rage. Folk music was, for the most part, pushed aside, with the possible exceptions of Bob Dylan and Peter, Paul & Mary. Listening to Roger sing these classics, you can hear not only the influence, but the emotion of how meaningful this music is to him. Remember, the Byrds were known for creating "folk-rock", and this collection demonstrates where it all began for Roger before, and now, after the legacy of the Byrds. If you have ever been a fan of folk music, or just a diehard Byrds fan like me, to own this compilation is an absolute treat. I recommend adding this to your CD collection.

A Viable Effort.......2006-01-04

As a McGuinn/Byrds fan and Rick player of many years, I was obligated to buy this CD if only to prevent a hole in my collection. However, it was money well-spent, without doubt. The material is strong, as are most of Roger's performances; and where he gets help, the help comes through.

My one issue with this album is that it is heralded as full of the "jingle-jangle" of the Rickenbacker, and I disagree. First of all, I've always detested the term 'jingle-jangle;' it's just too cute a term for such a magic sound. Second, the album does not jingle OR jangle - the guitar on this is so compressed that it sounds more like a vacuum cleaner drone than Roger's signature sound. In my opinion, I would like to see him rediscover the Turn, Turn, Turn sound. But then, I would also like to see him discover me as his producer. . .

Music better than performer........2005-11-17

As always, Jim (Roger) does a great job on record but continues to be one of the worst guys in the business when it comes to one on one interaction with concert attendees. Surely, he doesn't still think he's the only one still playing and singing old songs to old folks.

musicianship still exists.......2005-09-26

It was nice to hear a pro do his thing, with good musicians, good songs, and a clear feeling he loves the music.

Folk & Rock = A Musical Marriage Made in Heaven.......2005-07-24

George Harrison was and is my favorite Beatle and to hear someone treat his 1965 classic, "If I Needed Someone" with respect, vocally as well as by arrangement was a very pleasant surprise. I honestly did not think that anybody could actually do his own arrangement of this Harrison classic; keep it a recognizable tune and make it nearly as delightful as what the Beatles recorded in late 1965. McGuinn has done an extraordinary job with this collection. He has played the range, including timeless staples such as "When the Saints Go Marching In" and "Shennandoah."

The Byrds' covers of Dylan songs were easy listening, soothing and pleasant and I love the folk arrangement. The Byrds were indeed pioneers and helped influence other excellent groups of that era such as the Turtles, the Lovin' Spoonful and even the Critters, an ersatz Spoonful-esque band from the late 1960s.

McGuinn rocks on "Shady Grove" and "James Alley Blues" will remain a very hard act to follow. That is just a treat for the hearing world.

"Shennandoah" is, as I like to think, written and performed in a very emotive key. Just listening to McGuinn perform this takes listeners through a wide spectrum of emotions. It goes from bright and cheerful and upbeat to melancholy in parts and intense in others. An extraordinary work. I love it!

I had the pleasure of seeing McGuinn and Barry McGuire in concert a few years ago when they did a local show. They are just as effective and just as excellent now as they were decades earlier. McGuinn is an incredible guitarist and I want to hear more guitar work from him. I'd love to hear him and John Sebastian of Lovin' Spoonful fame perform together.

All in all, a solid work. There are many listeners who'll pray for something like this to come along again. Kudos!

Excellent CD!!!!!.......2005-03-23

February 22, 2003 will be a date which I will never forget. In Mt. Dora, Florida, Roger performs a benefit concert, which I attended and had my picture taken with him after the show, and it was this concert where I got to hear some of the material that would end up on this CD for the first time, such as "Interstate 95", as anyone living in Florida can relate to the story Roger tells in this song about being on the road. One listen to the lyrics and you'll understand what I mean. "If I Needed Someone" is an excellent tribute to George Harrison (the original Rickenbacker 12-string king), and I've tried to get an e-mail confirmation from Roger if "Echoes Live" is truly mistitled, as any Byrds fan can tell that it's obviously an acoustic rendition of "Eight Miles High". If you have Roger's CD "Live From Mars", you'll know what I'm talking about. Nonetheless, this CD is very good, especially the hip-hop influence on "Shady Grove". A neat novelty move on Roger's part, to be sure, and if you're a devoted Byrds fan, I recommend this CD. It's a great addition to anyone's CD rack. Roger has often spoke about preserving the folk music, as evidenced by his renditions of such classics like "When The Saints Go Marching In", "St. James Infirmary", "Shenandoah", and "James Alley Blues". If this is to be truly a "Limited Edition" release, then I'm glad to be one of the lucky fans to own this. Excellent work, Roger!!!!!

Many might like Cardiff Rose or Back from Rio better than Thunderbyrd, and they could make a strong case. But the 9 songs here are good, especially when you consider some of McGuinn's other, much less listenable solo efforts, and there are a few Byrds albums--Farther Along, and the reunion album from '73-- that can't come close to the consistency here. If you're a McGuinn fan you'll like it.

Mr Spaceman is Back from Rio.......2005-10-13

Yeah you remember that guy on TV with the Beatle wig and colored
Ben Franklin glasses singing Mr Tambourine Man with 12 string
guitar in hand. That's right its Mr Spaceman him self Roger McGuinn of the folk rock group the Byrds.

The most influential man in modern rock, but seldom reconized for that! He spured on the whole country rock thing in 1968 with
the Byrds - Sweet Heart of the Rodeo that many other groups followed like: Bob Dylan, The Greatful Dead, etc... etc...that spured on the likes of The Eagles in the 1970's, but its not always good to be a leader of the flock sometimes and you get passed by.

That's what happened to Roger and to this album: Back from Rio
all the songs are excellent, The first single, "King Of The Hill," co-written with long time friend Tom Petty soared to number one on the rock charts with I guess some CD sales.
I found mine in a cut out bin one year after its release in a second rate music store and it was the only one they had for $4.98 What a waste, this is the best kept secret in Rock n Roll
I love this CD and I think it was not promoted right by the label
and Roger McGinn had to lose money on making this album in 1990
with the high studio costs now and all, the Ex Byrd was shot down and crashed in flames on this one, what a shame

This is a great album and deserves more respect than it got
and should be on the K-Rock stations every day. If any Radio DJ
is reading this please dust off your promo copy and let the people hear some good Music- Thank You

McGuinn at his best!.......2005-07-07

As a very longtime lover of Roger McGuinn, having seen him a number of times, including this past year, sitting front row center in a small venue, I absolutely love this album. If you listen to it more than a cursory once, and especially on a good stereo or better yet, through good headphones, you will realize what a spectacular album this is. Give it a chance and it will grow on you (if it doesn't instantly knock you out, like it did me).

A marginal offering with one great shining moment.......2004-05-18

This Roger McGuinn solo record is a pedestrian effort with one exception; the duet with fellow Rickenbacker lover Tom Petty on "King Of The Hill". This is, simply put, one of the great recorded moments of the 90's and it's amazing that it got as little radio support as it did. (I heard it once in Ft. Worth, Texas.) Sounding uncannily like a long lost pair of brothers, Roger and Tom wind this song up and out with the ease of two music biz vets who are greatly at ease with their craft and who know a classic when they hear one. Given their history, I think they qualify. (This song gives you an idea what the next Wilbury's album may have sounded like if Roger hadn't declined the invite.) The rest of this album is pleasant enough, but lacks teeth. Buy Back From Rio to tack "King Of The Hill" onto the end of your Byrds or Heartbreakers compilation cd's. (It's selling for a PENNY! What are you waiting for?)

Masterpiece.......2004-04-08

As a true fan of Byrds-music I was often a little disappointed with the solo efforts of Roger McGuinn, because the musicians who played on his albums did not always seem to understand where he comes from, or they didn't tune in to his music. This album is the exception: the chemistry works really well here, having such helpers as Tom Petty, Elvis Costello and Dave Stewart on his side. Superb production combines with jangling guitar work, majestic vocal harmonies and a well chosen bunch of songs: "King Of The Hill" is a true classic and would sound great on any Byrds record. Still it has to be pointed out, that production becomes the major artform here, because that band never went out on the road to play. It's sort of a "virtual" Byrds-album so-to-speak, but a great one. Welcome back, "phantom" Jim McGuinn!

P.S. The German cover is much more tasteful than that of the American issue. It seems to be trendy today to make a mockery out of certain flower children.

Unfulfilled Potential.......2000-07-30

As this is McGuinn's first solo album in over ten years, this comes as something of a disappointment. While his signature Rickenbacker electric 12-string guitar rings out and shimmers here with a clarity not heard since 1968's "Notorious Byrd Brothers" (recorded with his old band The Byrds, of course) and his vocals are as strong and as nuanced as ever, the songwriting, never a consistent ability of his, is undernourished. McGuinn has always thrived, as an artist, in a fertile artistic environment, as witnessed by choice partnerships in past incarnations of The Byrds. A commercial Hollywood producer is no help to him here. Good melodic ideas are saddled with mundane lyrics (co-composed with his wife Camilla) or are arranged in a post-Eagles or contemporary Tom Petty mold. Nothing patently quirky or innovative here. McGuinn's original material ("Someone To Love", "Suddenly Blue", "Without Your Love") is generally ear-catching but lacks substance with "Car Phone" and "King of the Hill" (co-written with McGuinn acolyte Tom Petty) being the exceptions. It is in McGuinn's covers of Jules Shear's "If We Never Meet Again" (a great Byrds song if there ever was one) and Elvis Costello's "You Bowed Down" (written especially for McGuinn) that we see the old master at work. These performances and the many guest cameos (Costello, Petty, Stewart, Penn and former Byrds Crosby and Hillman), make this worthwhile for any serious fan of McGuinn. For the casual listener or Byrds fanatic, check out McGuinn's eponymous debut solo album or the compilation "Born To Rock and Roll".

A Pleasant Surprise.......2006-05-28

Roger McGuinn has never been my favorite Byrd, but having explored most of the other Byrds solo projects and spin-offs (Grievous Angel, If I Could Only Remember My Name, Echoes, etc.), I finally got around to picking this one up and was happy with what I found. This is a well-conceived album from the McGuinn-Dylan collaboration that starts it to the uniquely arranged gospel standard that ends it. Along the journey, we get playful harmonies from Beach Boy Bruce Johnston, gutsy sax playing by Charles Lloyd, understated steel playing from the King of Steel Guitar Buddy Emmons, a children's choir, wordless harmonizing from David Crosby, and some thoughtful, interesting songwriting from Roger McGuinn and Jacques Levy who, two years later, would collaborate with Bob Dylan to write most of the songs on the Desire album. So, in short, McGuinn's self-titled solo LP is in the top tier of Byrds solo albums worth purchasing.

Not bad.......2005-01-25

Sound not as good as on the edsel label edition issued previously, I don't think. Although it appears to have been "remastered". Not quite up there with the Byrds albums but better than the the next few solo releases.

McGuinn soars on self titled solo album with Byrds reunion.......2004-03-02

Flying solo after the disasterous Byrds reunion album for Asylum Records, Roger McGuinn made one of his best solo albums. At first McGuinn was working with producer Terry Melcher but, after some honest criticism by David Crosby ("Too plastic" was his assessment), McGuinn opted to produce the effort himself and the more "organic sound" (again Crosby via McGuinn)compliments the material. One of the best Byrds solo records along with Gene Clark's "White Light" (aka "Gene Clark"), "Roger McGuinn" focuses on what McGuinn does best; create interesting, layered melodies that are highlighted by his sharp guitar playing and nuanced vocals.

The opening track (featuring Bob Dylan on harmonica)nods to McGuinn's folk roots while the second track is a Byrds reunion in all but name; every member of the original line up plays or sings on the song. It's one of McGuinn's most perfect melodies and the harmony vocals by David Crosby and Gene Clark (which recall, of all things, Brasil 66)along with the jazz inflectecd tenor sax of Charles Lloyd bring the song to life. Another winning composition "Draggin'" nods in the direction of The Beach Boys with its layered harmony vocals and California sun melody. "Lost My Drivin' Wheel" rocks along at a good pace. "Time Cube" is a throw back to 1967 Byrds with its science fiction theme and the contrasting instruments of moog sythesizer and banjo all with a thematic tip of the hat to Arthur C. Clarke. "Bag Full of Money" imagines a past for the enigmatic D. B. Cooper (for those unfamiliar with him, he robbed a plane in mid-flight and then parachuted away never to be heard of or seen again). "Hanoi Hannah" supposedly has nothing to do with Jane Fonda (Jane paid a visit to McGuinn trying to rally him to her cause and visit North Vietnam)but one can imagine McGuinn thinking of her as he penned the song with frequent collaborator Levy. The album closes on a trio of strong songs "Heave Away" (a remake of an Irish sea shanty featuring "Spanky" McFarlane on vocals; "M'Linda" and "The Water is Wide" feature the legendary percussionist Hal Blaine and the latter has Bruce Johnson (of The Beach Boys)and David Crosby on harmony vocals.

The two bonus tracks are nice additions to the album. "John, John" is spare featuring only McGuinn on vocals and guitar while the outtake remake of Jackson Browne's "Jamaica, Say You Will" pulls out all the stops with a full band (again featuring Blaine).

The booklet has a nice summary that discusses what prompted the album and commentary by McGuinn himself. The remastered sound is very good although the album sounds a bit "flat" (probably due to the year it was released 1973--it could have benefited from a remix but, then, that would be disturbing history). Thank God that Sundazed reissued this original Columbia Release. Now if we could only get The Byrds reunion album reissued by Rhino (write them! I did), I'd be a happy fan.

One of McGuinn's best efforts.......2004-02-10

Having survived David Crosby's manipulation of the Byrds reunion, McGuinn wisely decided to retire the franchise and set about sticking to his guns. This self-produced project is a true gem. While duly credited for all that the Byrds accomplished, it was with this unassuming, unpretentious, finely honed and simply crafted release that Roger McGuinn set the record staright as to what he stood for. His subsequent releases were quite good as well, especially JOLLY ROGER, but this one is really a sublime success in every respect.
Stripped of all overproduction tendencies, it virtually pre-dated the punk reaction to the bloated business of rock. It is simple, organic, direct and honest. The opening "I'm so Restless" is as to the point today as it was 30 years ago. The rest of the package is certainly a mix of good natured satire of prevalent rock styles that endure through the present, a few commentaries on the social idiosyncrasies of the day ( "Hanoi Hannah" - particularly amusing when you consider what a money grubbing snob Fonda turned into- and "Bag Full of Money" - a D B Cooper tribute), and some positively extraordinary harmonizing with David Crosby. Crosby never sounded this good and spot on with Nash. You are left wondering what might have been had egos been checked at the door.
Throughout, McGuinn's exquisite guitar playing rings so absolutely true that it is as much today as it was then a refreshing sound altogether. Drummer John Guerin (at the time sharing duties with the L A Express, and more so with Joni Mitchell) lays down a spartan time signature. Spooner Oldham graces several of the tunes with his remarkable skills. But in reality, it is the wonderfully natural and uncomplicated singing of McGuinn and Crsoby that totally sets this apart.
The two supplemental tracks are nice but unnecessary. Although it is a short album, it was in fact complete as is. The reason for its brevity in 73 was to maintain the sonic quality on vinyl. Going back to that after this CD. I feel that vinyl warmth was truly exceptional, and has remained so. Is the CD better? Not really. Just more permanent, and this is a record that should never be lost.
McGuinn toured with this band for quite a while. I remember seeing them in a movie theatre in Devon, PA, with about 60 other people. He was brilliant and the band was fantastic and energetic. I hope there are some tapes of those tours that McGuinn would consider revisting, remastering and releasing. He was a Wilbury before the concept was hatched elsewhere. Pity he had not been called in when Orbison passed. In any case, purchase this. It is wonderful!

Bag Full of Influences.......2004-01-24

For his first solo album, Roger McGuinn captained an engaging trip through his primary musical influences; "I'm so Restless" is a straight folk song (with Bob Dylan on harmonica); "Draggin'" is a Beach Boys tribute featuring drag racing 747 jetliners; "Heavy Away" is a sea chantey; " Bag Full of Money" is catchy country-rock; "Lost my Drivin' Wheel" features a heavier rock sound: and "Water is Wide" ends the original album with a sweet campfire sing-a-long. McGuinn clearly had a lot of sounds he wanted to explore after disbanding the Byrds, and his famous 12-string guitar is used only sparingly on this 1973 effort. The high quality of the songs holds the album together and, for first-time listeners, every new track is a surprise. Even the droning "Time Cube," in which McGuinn revisits his fascination with science fiction topics, is not bad. A very solid disc - I would place it second only to Gene Clark's "No Other" in a ranking of outings by an original member of the Byrds (Gram Parsons was a later addition to the band). The two bonus tracks; the traditional "John, John," and Jackson Browne's "Jamaica Say You Will;" are welcome additions and fit nicely into the overall feel of the album.

Album Description

Roger McGuinn, whose voice and 12-string guitar had been signature elements of the Byrds, was flying high again on solo albums three and four: Roger McGuinn & Bandand Cardiff Rose. Released in 1975, the former longplayer features McGuinn's tortured vocals on screaming rocker "Somebody Loves You," a mindbending version of Bob Dylan's "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" and a churning reprise of McGuinn classic "Born To Rock And Roll." Rejuvenated by a featured spot in Dylan's fabled Rolling Thunder Revue in 1975, McGuinn hooked up with storied producer/guitarist Mick Ronson to create Cardiff Rose, the solo LP many consider his best. From the ringing opening chords of "Take Me Away" and the scurvy buccaneer tale, "Jolly Roger," both fascinating postcards from Rolling Thunder, to the swaggering "Rock And Roll Time" and Joni Mitchell's fervent "Dreamland," McGuinn's feet barely touch the ground on this 1976 masterpiece. Accompanied by liner notes penned after recent interviews with the great man himself, both McGuinn classics now available on compact disc with bonus material, have been sourced from the pristine Columbia Records master tapes and have never sounded better!

McGuinn Plays On.......2007-05-12

As an original Byrd's fan, I have followed the career's of the various members over the years. McGuinn's folk output can best be heard here.
Enjoy.

LEAR JETS AND PIRATES.......2006-07-09

Jolly Roger was going for broke on this 1977 release, the fourth of five albums he released in the 70's. He's playing and singing like a man with a pistol to his head on this one, like a man who's definitely trying to prove something after the disappointing commercial response to his previous solo efforts. And he delivers. His range of topics has never been broader, from the search for the Holy Grail ("Round Table"), to transforming Joni Mitchell's "Dreamland" to an ode to the angst of the space age, to raw punk rock ("Rock 'n Roll Time") before it became junk rock, to getting to the rock bottom of a murderer's intent with his searing vocal on "Pretty Polly", to looking into a pirate's soul on "Jolly Roger". All the songs are first-rate McGuinn, and that means first-rate, period. With the success of recent releases like LIMITED EDITION and THE FOLK DEN PROJECT, Roger is finally beginning to get his due, and people are discovering he's been flying in the stratosphere for a long time.

WHATEVER!.......2006-03-03

I was so looking forward to getting and finally hearing this highly recommended album from Roger McGuinn. Honestly, I do not understand all of the accolades for this album! I am a Byrds fan and have heard other solo music from Roger but this one is just plain BAD!!!!!!!! What garners "critical acclaim" anymore is beyond me. If it wasn't for "pretty polly", the entire record would be a dud! The cover of Bowie's "soul love" is hideous and pointless. Gee, that just described the entire thing in a nutshell for me! A really loooong hour to sit through a bad record when there are so many legitimate great ones!

JOLLY ROGER'S HIGH WATER MARK.......2005-04-16

Former chevron leader of The Byrds, Roger McGuinn, along with George Harrison, put out arguably the best albums of the seventies, although they were often underappreciated. His eponymous solo debut was letter perfect in every regard. This, his third, was even better. Sony has sweetened the deal with a studio demo of David Bowie's "Soul Love" and a live take on Joni Mitchell's "Dreamland."
His spirit is completely infectious throughout this disc. His collaborations with Jacques Levy were never finer. His humour, his jangling 12 string, his lusty and robust vocals give these songs vivid immediacey and compelling authority. Dylan would have been just another long winded songwriter in desperate need of an editor had McGuinn not disovered the gems hidden in the Minnesota tramp's rambling semi-tunes. And yet McGuinn never sought the limelight. He was always in service to the music. You'll get that from the opening track, "Take Me Away", a celebration of his participation in the Dylan-Baez Rolling Thunder Review. When I caught the Review in Toronto, McGuinn was clearly in heaven. He and Gordon Lightfoot seemed the two most enchanted with how wonderful the music was and how important it was for all of them to be anonimously involved in Rock's greatest one-off tour. "Jolly Roger" and "Pretty Polly" present McGuinn as lusty pirate. "Jolly Roger" emboldens the swagger and spirit as much as Stan Roger's "Barret's Privateers." "Friend" is quintessentially troubador music. "Rock and Roll Time" is pure new wave rock, stripped of all the corporate baggage that continues to drag music down. "Partners in Crime" is absolutely dead on parody of the hypocrisy among the Chicago 7. "Up to Me" takes an unremarkable Dylan song and turns it into a classic, as only McGuinn could do. "Round Table" is maybe now the most amazing track, describing as it does, a Crusade to convert the Islamic world and steal back the Holy Grail. Leave the Pyhton analogies alone, and consider what this song says and you have to wonder did Roger know something, even way back then...
All through this disc, you'll catch premonitions of punk, power rock, world music. It all reaches an astounding conclusion with his take on Mitchell's "Dreamland." It is worth remembering that at this point, Mitchell had begun to shed her fan base as she moved into a quasi-jazz styling of songs. McGuinn came through with this gem to remind everyone just what a protean writer Mitchell still was.
The bonus stuff is icing on an incredible cake. I still love this CD! The remastering is perfect. This had all the elements to it: great songs, perfect deliveries, wonderful sound. The Byrd was as high creatively as he could be and it was all about the Music. When everything else was bombast or corporate, Jolly Roger pirated what was still real about music and kept it afloat. Rock owes him an enormous debt, and this is the proof right here.

Since 1995, former Byrd-man Roger McGuinn has been posting a song each month on the Folk Den (www.mcguinn.com) to celebrate and spread the traditional repertoire that launched his musical life in the '50s. Now he revisits 18 of those songs on a collaborative, home-recorded CD, singing and picking his banjo and 12-string guitar alongside stalwart folkies like Pete Seeger, Joan Baez, Jean Ritchie, Odetta, and next-generation talents Eliza Carthy and Josh White Jr. The approach is decidedly old school--warbly voiced, polite, and deferential toward their sources--and the results uneven, with high points like the ballad "Wagoner's Lad" (with Baez and Carthy) and low ones like the listless blues of "In the Evenin'" (with Seeger). These "treasures" are unlikely to win new fans for the pre-singer-songwriter age of folk music, but they will provide pleasant melodies, and maybe memories, for the already converted. --Jeffrey Pepper Rodgers

Back to the Roots.......2004-04-08

Yes, I really enjoy to listen to this record, although it is a few steps back to what Mr. McGuinn has achieved in the past. He finally gets his chance here to sing along with the very people, that he was never allowed to share vocals with way back then. It must have hurt him badly, and this album makes up for it. Fair enough. It is sort of ironic after all, that the master mind of Acid Rock winds up singing "Whiskey In The Jar". Have a laugh!

Disappointing.......2003-09-22

Preservation efforts deserve respect. They typically reflect an individual's commitment, rarely are profit-driven, and ideally are educational as well as entertaining.

On the classical side, an excellent example is Itzhak Perlman's ongoing archiving of kletzmer music. On the 'musical comedy' side, there is Naxos' remarkable remastering of the 1950 D'Oyly Carte (post-war) monaural recordings of the Gilbert & Sullivan operettas.

However, both of these examples offer something 'Treasures' seriously lacks--interesting content and consistent quality. For anyone outside the extreme 'traditionalist' fold, the songs are sleep-inducing, and the track-to-track quality is shaky--a nasty surprise, given the cast of characters. Worst of all, the album lacks the one forgiving element many of us desire who are old enough to remember when the producer wasn't 'Roger' but 'Jim'--complex but focused guitar arrangements.

McGuinn should not underestimate the risk he's taking. By devoting himself so disproportionately to recording traditional tunes so that 'people remember them', he's in danger of everyone forgetting HIM. He'd be well advised to get back in the studio, plug in the Ric, find a lyricist and start creating. The personal assets he has during performances--creativity, charm and audience rapport (and good looks for a guy his age)--don't carry him here.

McGuinn and Pete Seeger together -- You do the Math.......2002-07-27

To hear the two guys who got me into music picking and harmonizing together on Dink's Song had me unexpectedly in tears. I've been playing it nonstop and pushing it on everyone in listening distance. It's an incredible cut off an incredible album. If you like the Alan Lomax collection on Rounder, you'll love this. Just push the proper buttons on your computer and go ahead and buy it. You can also get the chords from the website and play along! Always wanted to hear these guys together. Praise God!

I liked it better than the Grammy winner.......2002-03-24

After the Grammy's I bought Treasures from the Folk Den and the Dylan CD that was nominated. After listening to both many times, I realized that I like the McGuinn CD much better. It's beautiful music and voices with a number of spicy collaborations - Baez, Judy Collins, Pete Seeger, Odetta. Bottom line, it's a CD you can listen to over and over and never get bored. This one should have won.

what happened?.......2005-12-26

Between the years 1966 and 1972 a remarkable phenomenon took place in music. A renaissance exploded in which not only the premier artists of the era, but even less talented, less promising performers, were given the opportunity to produce art in lieu of a commercially salable product. Indeed, it was art that became the commercially salable product. In that atmosphere, genuine artists became icons and took the predominate genres of the era, psychedelic-, blues-, country-, and hard-rock, to heights since unparalleled. Many people bemoaned the obvious return of the pre-conceived and targeted sound music began to employ as the 1970's progressed. Those artists who had thrived during rock's renaissance, artists such as Roger McGuinn, found themselves as mere musicians looking to earn a paycheck in a highly fabricated milieu of popular music. On this album, McGuinn was literally assigned by "record company clowns" (as Neil Young lovingly calls them) a producer and backing band not of his choosing, laying down a songlist on which he himself had penned less than half of the songs (among the four songs credited to McGuinn, only two were previously unrecorded). Clearly this artist had lost control of the production bearing his name, and of course his art suffers immensely for it.

It's rather stunning to peruse the liner notes cobbled together by Jud Cost in 'Roger McGuinn and Band'. McGuinn is quoted regarding his "complacency with this record" being due to "not being ALLOWED (capitalizations mine) to produce it". "I just sort of threw my hands up", he says, "and let it all happen". He blows off the lyrics of 'Lover of the Bayou', as "totally made up" and "total nonsense". Regarding 'Born To Rock and Roll' McGuinn admits, "I never did quite nail it". Almost as a mockery of all that was happening, McGuinn sings in 'Circle Song', "Sometimes we're singin', and the words won't rhyme, 'cause we don't mean these things we say... it's the game we play". It's akin to the owner of a new car opening up the owners manual and finding out all the shortcomings of his new purchase.

Predictably, this album has a slick, glossy feel to it... a pretty facade over tracks lacking in substance. There is the sound of rock and roll minus the feel of rock and roll. There are some good compositions, both rockers ('Somebody Loves You', 'Lover of the Bayou', and 'So Long') and ballads ('Painted Lady' and an impressive cover of Bob Dylan's 'Knockin' On Heaven's Door'), but the performances seem all done for effect. One wonders if there isn't a subliminal message being delivered by the cover art, picturing McGuinn in front of an early and massive video tape machine, a producer of two-dimensional images. Even the good work on 'Roger McGuinn and Band', unfortunately, comes across superficial and two-dimensional. This is easy to spot in the work of an artist who once led his faithful following to challenge the 'Fifth Dimension'.

The CD version of 'Roger McGuinn and Band' is spruced up a bit with two live bonus tracks, recorded in July of 1976 as McGuinn toured with his band Thunderbyrd. The first is a Gerry Goffin and Carol King composition, 'Wasn't Born To Follow' (previously recorded by The Byrds, and by Dusty Springfield), a fairly undistinguished song, and one which the liner notes make apologies for in "sonic anomalies" (in other words, the original recording was messed up), and a live rendition of 'Chestnut Mare' which is the one gem harbored on the disc.

The disc comes packaged fairly well, but without lyrics. The backing band, and circustances under which the album was produced, as well as inside commentary on the tracks, are given adequate detail in the liner notes. I have to suspect, however, that 'Roger McGuinn and Band' would only appeal to McGuinn completists, of which there are probably a handsome number. For the more casual McGuinn fan, there is hardly a single disc by The Byrds that won't provide a more satisfying Roger McGuinn experience.

Brilliant Band, Great Bonus Tracks.......2005-04-16

For his fourth album, McGuinn had put together a superb touring band that had a harder edge than any of his Byrd and solo records had shown. Having caught them in concert in a Devon movie theatre of all places, I was amazed at what a powerful group they were. As always, McGuinn's self-efacing humour was key to the joy and charm of these performances. That's hard to capture in a studio, but this was a very primal recording, again as much a premonition of the new wave and punk recording process as anything. Costello, Strummer and Bators must have been listening to CARDIFF ROSE and this one.
So, with the enhanced remastering, you'll find that this disc literally snaps with energy. For the Gram Parsons devotees, this is as far removed as McGuinn would get, and that's just as well. It was time for a cleansing tonic from the southern california brain dead style of country rock. Enough was enough. Poco was still around if that's what you needed.
Everything kicks off with a great burst in "Somebody Loves You." This band had caught fire. "Knocking on Heaven's Door" again, is the definitive version. Dylan hopefully thanks his almight God that McGuinn came along. Pity Roger hadn't been asked to join the Wilburys at the end of the Eighties, one can only imagine what would have been....
Anyway, the grit of "Lover of the Bayou," the island stylings of "Lisa" and the rest of the CD sound terrific. "Born to Rock and Roll" recasts a very weak tune into much a stronger framework, and it is nowhere near as leaden as the Byrds re-union take on it.
But what takes this CD elsewhere altogether are the incredible versions of "Wasn't Born to Follow" and "Chestnut Mare" that this line-up delivered live. It would be worth gold to release a live set from this band. These two tunes and the "Dreamland" live track on CARDIFF ROSE give you some indication what a great, great live band this was. As protean as Los Lobos. As I've said before, an underappreciated hero of music, McGuinn deserves a lot more attention. His influence over the years has been profound. Not everything he did was perfect, but I'd take his imperfections any day of the week. With this CD, you have a truly amazing touring band re-creating that energy in the studio and then flexing its live muscles as well in the bonus tracks. Enjoy! It's great!

The Guys were not from Beaumont,Texas.......2005-02-04

In the Album Layout the info mentions "Roger brought in some guys from Beaumont Texas".Not true.Richard Bowden,Greg Attaway,and David Lovelace were all from Linden,Tx.Richard & Greg are still in a Band today called Moon & the Starz,go to www.richardbowden.com and see.David Lovelace passed away in April 2003 and was a member of the Starz Band.You'll see these Guys' credits on this new CD which is a classic for all involved.Also Don Henley is not from Beaumont either ! He is also from Linden,Texas.go to www.donhenley.com By the way,thanks Roger for re-releasing this CD for all of us who wore out the LP's and for giving Richard,Greg,David & Steve another boost of credit.

His worst solo album, but not awful.......2004-12-19

Great cover of "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" and a super reworking of The Byrds "Lover of the Bayou" but the reggae beat of "Lisa" and the schlock of "Born to Rock-n-Roll" bring this record down.(Though this version of Born to Rock-Roll is superior to the version on The Byrds reunion album of 1973).In my opinion his best solo albums are "Roger Mcguinn" "Cardiff Rose" "Back from Rio" "Live from Mars" and "Limited Edition".

"I Feel Possessed" is an OK song. But this CD EP is mainly worth buying for the other three tracks, performed by "Byrdhouse," a.k.a. Crowded House with Roger McGuinn). They are "Mr. Tambourine Man," "Eight Miles High," and "So You Want to Be a Rock'n'Roll Star," recorded at the Pantages Theater in L.A. on April 7, 1989. Great stuff.
