Karen Dalton's "Green Rocky Road" - Circa 1963 - To Be Released In June
about 1 year ago

I don't know much about Karen Dalton, but the release of her album Green Rocky Road sounds pretty epic. Not to mention that both Bob Dylan and Devendra Banhart name her as their favorite singer. A press release I received today says, "Green Rocky Road is as close as we’ll ever get to hear the record Karen Dalton would have made in 1963." Instead, the album will be released June 10th, 2008!

A GREAT COVER
over 3 years ago

We all have our favorite artists, and i suspect that a lot of us are suckers for COVER VERSIONS of our fav's songs. Many a cd has been purchaced by me for NO OTHER REASON than a song list that includes a cover or two. And, if your like me, you then compare the cover to the original an' find fault. I'm a sucker for a good BEATLE cover, but in the end, i usualy, almost always, prefer the BEATLE'S

Karen Dalton's early recordings
over 2 years ago

Here's another really nice reissue of Karen Dalton's early 1960s recordings from a folk club in Boulder Colorado. This was before she moved to NYC and made her mark in the Bleecker Street folk scene. She was apparently living in an unheated, unelectrified shack in the mountains with her daughter and far happier and less addicted than she became later in life. Still you can hear something elemen

Take me in your darkest room, Karen my dear
about 1 year ago

Time to put your quiet hats on, Moggers. I ran across this track on Jesse Jarnow's blog the other day and I gotta say that I CANNOT get enough of this song. There's something so sad and so sublime in her singing and phrasing....from allmusic:A cult singer, 12-string guitarist, and banjo player of the New York 1960s folk revival, Karen Dalton still remains known to very few, despite counting the

The first Karen Dalton song I ever heard
over 2 years ago

People seemed to like "Cotton-Eyed Joe" so I dug out the first Karen Dalton record I ever owned (and, I think, the only one available for a long time), It's So Hard to Tell Who's Going to Love You the Best and uploaded "Ribbon Bow." Heartbreaking, yes?

Karen Dalton, Green Rocky Road
about 1 year ago

For those of you who like Billie Holiday you'll love Karen Dalton. She would play a 12 string Gibson guitar and a long neck banjo. This was one seriously talented woman! Although she had a tough life, she made some really inspiring music! http://splicetoday.com/music/album-review-karen-dalton-i-green-rocky-road-i?utm_source=mog&utm_medium=PV&utm_campaign=Karen%2BDalton
