Description:
4 CD set This unique package includes favorites such as "Blue Tail Fly", "Clementine", "Big Rock Candy Mountain" and many more, plus rare radio shows including collaborations with Bing Crosby, Les Paul and The Andrews Sisters. This is a must for any true fan of Burl Ives. Burl's abiding love, however, was folk music. Burl performed unsophisticated songs without tricks or embellishments. All the titles on here are from Decca. Much of the second disc are extracts from Bing Crosby's 'Philco' and 'Chesterfield' radio shows. |
