One of the clear standouts of the extensive LIVE AT NEWPORT series recorded at the legendary Newport Folk Festival throughout the '60s, JUDY COLLINS LIVE AT NEWPORT is also one of the finest documents there is of a masterful singer during an under-appreciated phase of her career. In retrospect, it can be hard to realize how refreshing Judy Collins' deep, clear, yet conversational voice was to the early '60s folk scene.
Judy Collins could take the hoariest of traditional ballads or most-covered hootenanny standard and make it sound brand new, something she does over and over again on this 14 track collection of live performances recorded between 1959 and 1966. If all you know of the Collins oeuvre is "Send in the Clowns," prepare to be amazed.
