Album Description

John Jacob Niles was a major influence and key progenitor of the 1950's folk resurgence in America. Historian, musicologist, performance artist - Niles was one of the first American folk artists to take traditional material and completely make it his own. Today the late, great John Jacob Niles is admired by a new generation of folk enthusiasts and will no doubt inspire generations to come. "The Ballads of John Jacob Niles" appears for the first time on CD.

Customer Reviews:

Timeless..........2007-07-04

I first purchased this on LP format at Melody Records in NYC around 1975. I found it in the American Folk bin along with artists like Jean Ritchie, etc. It was long out of print. I was listening to the likes of the British folk-rock group Fairport Convention at that time. They were mining the treasures of musicologist James Child's Ballad Book. To be quite frank, I wasn't prepared for what came through my headphones that winter evening - I felt transported to another time, another place - far away from my Park Slope brownstone. Niles' voice, phrasing,enthusiasm - he "is" what he sings - with poetry or prose set to music - he became the timeless traveling minstrel carrying tales of love, longing, betrayal, spirituality, humor, terror, and then some. BEWARE - his music is an aquired taste - listen several times, get his "Ballad Book"( your local library may have it - you pay taxes, this is free!) - and explore - when you connect with this music it will forever become part of you as it is part of our cultural past. The tales themselves are ageless - the melodies beautiful.

Also features one of the biggest hits of his career, the top 5 hit "Cuttin' In" and the stratospheric instrumental "Space Guitar." As a bonus there is an earlier second take of "Space Guitar" that's similar in structure but utterly different improvisationally.

make the connection.......2003-07-25

If you like Disney's 'Jungle Book', in particular Louis Prima singing "I wanna be like you" and King Louis talking to Mowgli, then listen to Big Maceo talking to Tampa Red in "She wants to sell my monkey" and make the connection. Remember, this was recorded in 1942! Other than that it's an excellent CD by one of the warmest, most gentle blues artists the world has ever known.

Product Description

An essential coffeehouse style CD from the beginning of the Internet, independent artist revolution in 1995. Self-produced original songs plus two tracks written by songwriter icon Townes Van Zandt, "Lost in the Green" has the intimacy and honesty of a rising talent in the new indie music world. Played on folk radio shows across the country as well as all over the world, David Elias was able to capture the imagination of folk listeners from his first track on this disc. Often compared to early Dylan, John Prine, Morrissey, and Nick Drake, you can listen to the beginning of his story.
