Title: Beautiful renditions of old songs
Review: I love folk & gospel music and Americana. I'm interested in the history of American music styles. I've experienced the Anonymous 4 in concert. And so I thought I might gain something from this cd. I did. I enjoy it, both academically and musically. It seems to me to be a modern rendition of old old tunes; if not authentic in sound, at least in spirit. The accompaniment by string musicians Mike Marshall and Darrol Anger is superb although for my tastes I would have liked even more from them. They just pop in and out occasionally throughout the cd. I give this a four star rating because the sound is excellent, and there just isn't enough of this type of music being produced; but I suspect that many folk, gospel and Americana enthusiasts may think it sterile, dry or boring.
