Album Review
A decent 12-song compilation of the group's singles, several of which, including "My Tani" and "Frogg," were never on their individual albums. The mix of tempos and sources encompasses everything from the two moody singles "Greenfields" and "The Green Leaves of Summer" to playful songs such as "Frogg," gospel material ("Nobody Knows"), and robust, stomping pieces ("I Am a Roving Gambler," "Nine Pound Hammer"). The sound is decent, but there's no annotation on this low-priced CD, a straight conversion of a 1967 album.
Customer Reviews
The Brothers Four Greatest Hits
Anyone that grew up in the 60's may have listened to this album played in 33 or 45 form, and for that factor alone this album is worth the price of having it today. This was my introduction to folk music, and for some unknown reason it has stuck with me for the last 40 years. Why am I a sucker for the words, lyrics, and banjo music? Who knows. These guys were doing something right in the early 60's, and maybe that makes it right in 2008. Their messages are still singin true after all these years.
The Brothers Four
This album has class. Perhaps underrated by the shadow of the Kingston Trio and in competition with the New Christy Minsterals, it is my opinion the the Brother Four out classed any competition, every song here is to be played and enjoyed over and over, they always remain fresh and exciting. A great album!
Dear God
I wasn't born until 30 years after this was released and I like every song. I'm surprised no one else has heard about these guys. If I have, i'm sure anyone else can.
