Found Treasure The Cumberland Trio were one of the finest groups to emerge from the 60’s Folk Boom. This album was recorded at the zenith of that boom and its stillbirth (due to the Beatles tsunami) makes it a sort of “Lost City of Atlantis.” To finally have it released is a joy–we all owe the CT a great debt. This is a must-have for any collection. Review from cdbaby

A Terrific “Find” — Music Epitomizing the Great Folk Revival of the 1960s  If you want to capture the spirit of the 1960s Folk Revival, you should start with this wonderful CD.

Since I received my copy in the mail this CD has been in my CD player with the repeat button enga…

Extraordinary recording, tight driving American folk at its populist roots In the time of legends, Spring, 1963, four young fraternity brothers calling themselves the Cumberland Trio (math majors they ain’t)brought down the house at a University of Tennessee campus band showcase with their tight-driving all American blend of bluegrass, gospel, and seeds-of-rock, and landed a contract with RCA, where their 1964 Nashville recordings were produced by the legendary Chet Atkins. The group has re-r…

“Just close your eyes..” Just hit “play” on your remote, close your eyes, and within only a few seconds you’re transported back to that special time when clean cut young men with their guitars and banjos hovered around a single microphone and sang tight three part harmonies with vibrant energy. If you remember that time or want to experience it, this Cumberland Trio album is a “must have”. Especially noteworthy are Tom Kilpatrick’s soaring tenor voice and Jim Shuptrine’s sharp, staccato banjo…
