Part of Rounder Records' "Cream of the Crop" series of single-artist anthologies, CROWD FAVORITES gathers 10 key tracks from Claire Lynch's solo career, along with four new recordings of songs Lynch originally did with her first group, the Front Porch String Band. All 14 songs give an excellent introduction to one of the most talented singers in traditional-style bluegrass. Particular highlights include the heartfelt bluegrass eulogy "The Day That Lester Died" and the sharp "Jealousy."
