MICHAEL HURLEY - BLUE MOUNTAIN

Another Michael Hurley classic. Something I've always loved about the Folkways recordings is how at home the artists seem in taking their time, showing their style, and playing as comfortably as they might alone. This song captures that mood between melancholy and the happiness that peace implies.

MICHAEL HURLEY - SWEEDEEDEE

Really does sound like a rooftop on Washington Square in the summertime. Hurley grew up in Bucks County, PA, and is alive, well, and recording to this day and to the delight of a century.
