I keep returning5
There are few CD's that I find myself returning to time and again. And this, most certainly, is one of them. I purchased it in l998 and in modern times have added it to my I-Pod. John never ceases to both please and astound me with his voice, his attitude and his stunning musical ability. Though his name might not be as well known as others, his talents exceeds that of many performers who are better known. I strong recommendation as music for the soul

There's nothing like John McCutcheon live5
I've listened to John McCutcheon since our college coffeehouse days in the mid-1970s. I have to say he just gets better all the time. This is my favorite of his 25-plus albums because it captures the flavor of his live shows--his wonderful musicianship on a number of instruments, his rich signing voice, his warmth in interacting with the audience, and his wonderful storytelling.

The set shows the many sides of John McCutcheon. "Calling All the Children Home" and "Christmas in the Trenches" are two of his best-known compositions. A couple instrumental cuts exhibit his virtuoso hammer dulcimer playing. He sings a couple traditional folk songs ("The Water is Wide" and "Joe Hill") and collaborates with his pal Tom Chapin. He even sneaks in a couple topical songs for which he is famous.

Live at Wolf Trap5
I have loved John McCutcheon ever since I was about seven or eight. His music is terrific and I have been to three of his concerts. This album is a must for anybody who knows John McCutcheon. Calling All the Children home is such a wonderful track and John almost always seems to start his shows off with it. Another one of my favorite songs on this album is Christmas in the Trenches. I understand that John McCutcheon does a lot of benefit concerts....
