Strange Creek Singers - Strange Creek Singers (1972) [Remastered 1997]

This recording of country/folk three-part harmonies will seem a bit accessible to someone familiar with the smooth sound of Alison Krauss. One might also find these recordings spanning 1968 through 1970 full of charm and honesty. Four city kids are unsatisfied with the pop vocal groups and become enamored with the folk revival of the time. This is their worthy attempt to add to that honored body of work. Several bluegrass vocal favorites are treated here. Among them are "Sunny Side of Life" and "Will the Circle Be Unbroken." While the Strange Creek Singers sometimes outdo themselves technically, their passion and love for their craft makes this album a classic.
