The Kingston Trio Twice Upon A Time

Return with Nick Reynolds, Bob Shane and John Stewart to the Sahara Tahoe for some memorable songs and very funny patter that wouldn't fit on the original release, including outstanding renditions of "They Call the Wind Maria"; "Little Maggie"; "The Merry Minuet"; "Reuben James"; "Hanna Lee"; Tom Paxton's "Where I'm Bound", and Stewart's own "The Spinnin' of the World" and "Hit and Run". After some hilarious false starts (including an exit by John), the Kingstons turn in a fine version of Eric Andersen's "Thirsty Boots", as well as some first-rate alternate live takes of "Hard Travelin'"; "Goodnight Irene", and "When the Saints Go Marching In", as well as Trio staples "M.T.A."; "Tom Dooley", and a giggle-free "Greenback Dollar" (unlike the one on Once Upon a Time!). The CD also includes a dynamic bonus video of the Trio performing Bob Dylan's "Tomorrow Is a Long Time". Re-captured in brilliant stereo sound by Grammy-nominated audio wiz Ron Furmanek, the Kingston Trio's "Twice Upon a Time" more than holds its own as a companion disc to "Once Upon a Time."
