Various - Folk Music From Wisconsin
Review by Marcelo Diotto
Folk Music From Wisconsin is an album that showcases the rich musical heritage of the state. Featuring various artists, the album is a delightful mix of traditional and contemporary folk music. The songs are beautifully crafted and sung with passion and sincerity.
The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful "The Lakes of Pontchartrain" by Lou and Peter Berryman. The song is a perfect introduction to the album, setting the tone for what is to come. Other standout tracks include "The Ballad of Joe Hill" by Tom Kastle, "The Bold Soldier" by Randy Sabien, and "The Cherry Tree Carol" by Jim Schwall.
What makes this album special is the way it captures the essence of Wisconsin. The songs are infused with the spirit of the state, from the rolling hills to the bustling cities. The musicians are clearly proud of their roots and it shows in the music they create.
