Details:
this record is not background music. and those not accustomed to unaccompanied songs, you are in for a rare treat! ellen''s stunning voice is more than enough to carry the collection to the end.

ellen is a singer of traditional ballads. her repertoire is made up of songs from the child and warner collections as well as others, and of those learned from singers like herself who love the old songs. her rich, sonorous voice brings a unique color to the genre: it’s admittedly a bit too pretty and polished to compete with the powerful sounds delivered by the truly traditional southern singers. however, her earnestness and devotion earn ellen a place alongside these great singers.

and although she doesn''t intentionally imitate them, ellen has learned a few important things over the years, from the singing of jean ritchie, jean redpath, joan baez and others, about the intimate, selfless delivery of a good, old, tragic tale.
----------
Gozion is a singer and pianist who favors traditional ballads, and does a fine job with a selection of them ranging from "Waly Waly" and "Black is the Color" to “Bright Morning Stars." The love and respect [she has] for the music…comes through clearly in [her] performances. Dirty Linen
