More from the Nonesuch Explorer series, this a fascinating collection of folk songs, originally released in 1966.

*1. Guitar/harp/vocals. Mid-tempo and catchy.
*2. Mid-tempo, joyful female harmonies. A capella.
3. Same group as above. Slower but equally sweet.
*4. Elegant, nostalgic solo guitar. Really lovely.
5. Solo harp w/a bright & lightly happy sound.
6. Female voices & mandolins. Kind of bouncy.
*7. A waltz for mandolin orchestra. Very nice.
8. Solo harp. Bright & happy.
9. Uptempo son w/guitar/harp/vocals.
10. Ballad for solo guitar. Sad but beautiful.
11. A capella female voices. Relaxed & low-key.
12. Mandolin orchestra w/mid-tempo romantic folk song.
13. Uptempo strings (guitar/harp) vocals.
14. Mid-tempo strings/female chorus.
