Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Very Good CD Comment: I recommend this CD to all of you who wants a well recorded cd with several great songs. Customer Rating: Summary: good cd Comment: I bought this cd for my aunts birthday, so it's actually her review. In her words: it's great to have both parts now of this great concert, I already had part II (via my nice I now have part I as well). I absolutely love this music. You can describe at a mix between folk, classical music and country. It's an older band with reunited for this gig, so it's quite special. Customer Rating: Summary: This is the best sounding Weavers CD period ! Full Stop! Comment: This is best sounding Weavers CD.Trust me! The "Sax" treatment mentioned by another reviewer here is spot on.I used this disc to demonstrate High End Audio Gear.(People gathered around just hearing it) This disc is worth having just for Guantanamera track alone, you can hear Pete's foot tapping on the stage! When you consider that this was recorded decades ago , you wonder what microphones people use these days! How can this be so good? This CD is one of my favs, i even got another copy just in case the "unthinkable" happens. Get now ! What's stopping you? Customer Rating: Summary: Timeless, important, still relevant music. Comment: Thanks Amazon for keeping this and other truly great music available in today's CD format. The quality is excellent. I have reviewed this Concert Pt2 in another review. I first listened to and fell in love with this concert and other Weavers music when I listened to it in the mid 1960s on vinyl LPs. The Weavers on Tour is another great album. I also bought Pete Seeger at Carnegie Hall [the 1963 concert - double CD] from you - also reproduced on CD. Again excellent. It is important for today's young people to know that Pete Seeger, The Weavers, Woody Guthrie, and Ledbelly were some of the formative influences on people like Bob Dylan, Joan Baez etc. The were activists in the de-segregation movement, the union movement etc., at a time when America was in sore need of effective voices. They spoke out against "McCarthyismm" when it was extremely necessary. Well Done!!! Customer Rating: Summary: Surprised that it has been reviewed only twice. Comment: This is a true gem. Recorded live by Doug Sax. I have not listened to anything mediocre engineered by Doug Sax. The ambiance and performance is timeless. Even if you don't like folk music, you will enjoy this one. Highly Recommended!!!!!!! More Reviews
Editorial Reviews: The second in a host of return engagements at one of the most revered music venues in America, this reunion featured the original quartet of Pete Seeger, Ronnie Gilbert, Lee Hayes and Fred Hillerman, augmented by Bernie Krause, Frank Hamilton and Erik Darling, who had become the next generation of (song) weavers. This original Vanguard live recording, praised for years for the perfect sound captured that night, is now available in it's definitive medium. Taken from the original 3-track analog masters, this 24/96 transfer puts you front row and center for the playback experience of a lifetime, capturing the true spirit of the reunion performance. The soundstage and depth are better than any reproduction, in any format, to date. Recorded on location at Carnegie Hall, May 2nd and 3rd 1963.
