lovely.......2004-02-17

Gordon Bok, Ann Mayo Muir and Ed Trickett all have had successful individual careers (especially Bok, who is perhaps New England's foremost regional singer/storyteller/guitarist), but they have been best known as this collective for many years. Trickett plays acoustic guitar and hammered dulcimer and Bok a deep-throated twelve-string, and all have strong and complementary singing voices. The material is core "gentle folk music," with input from both traditional and contemporary original sources (e.g., Bok, David Mallett, Eric Bogle & Archie Fisher). This is truly lovely stuff, and heartily recommended to anyone for those times by the fireplace on a Sunday winter's morning, cup of coffee in hand.

A Folk Album You Should Own.......2003-07-17

Bok, Muir & Trickett is a continuation of Peter, Paul & Mary. They sang in close harmony and their songs are real folk classics. If you like the folk-style of Peter, Paul & Mary, you will surely like this folk group.

A wonderful CD.......1999-09-13

Bok, Muir, and Trickett are a great group, and this is a great compilation. The final trawl and the Ways of Man are amazing, and the others are all great too. Get it!

GLORIOUS MUSIC!!!.......1998-09-15

Since I first heard this group on A Prairie Home Companion many years ago I was hooked. This CD has no bad tracks. Every song is a jewel and I never get tired of listening to it. The voices of this trio blend so beautifully together. Gordon Bok has a voice that is so perfect. It is hard to decide which is better - him alone or with Muir and Trickett. I recommend this CD to everybody, young or old.

A couple of keepers.......2007-03-11

A pleasant enough folk CD, with two exceptionally good songs: the title track, Turning Toward the Morning, and a great version of the traditional Three Score and Ten. Most of the songs are rather on the sad side, which isn't my first preference, but to be expected from folk music. Still, the CD has a nice sound to it, and the two songs I mentioned are definitely keepers. Of course, someone with more of a taste for softer, sadder songs, will enjoy this album even more.

Generally Delightful.......2001-01-10

This is a very nice collection of folk and other songs performed by, Ann Mayo Muir, Ed Trickett and Gordon Bok.

They draw upon their various backgrounds to excellent effect on most of the cuts on this disc, although there are a couple of cuts I don't prefer (and I hope I won't prejudice anyone by saying #8 and #9).

If you like robust, folk-y, music, this is a very nice collection.

Beautiful!.......2001-01-09

This recording contains come of the most beautiful harmonies I have ever heard. The songs are traditonal - some familiar, some not so, but the renditions are clear and thoughtfully produced. Some are mostly vocal, some instrumental, and others a delightful combination. Behind these recordings there is a distinct love of the music; some are joyful, some heartbreaking. You will not be disappointed by this record, and you are guaranteed to run the full gamut of emotions while listening.

Folk Music Lives!.......1998-11-28

Gordon Bok, Ed Trickett and Anne Mayo Muir continue to keep our folk heritage alive with uniformly excellent collections of traditional and modern folk music. Two of the more outstanding selections on this CD are "Wild Birds" (a poignant ballad about life on the road) and "The Wreck of the Bay Rupert" (a lightheated tale about the perils of sailing on Hudson's bay).

Folk Legacy Records (Sharon, CT) have been working for years to keep folk music by these and other artists alive; many of the titles they publish are still not available on CD. Folk music enthusiasts take note!
