Our Take

In a music scene oversaturated with cookie-cutter pop stars and manufactured personas, ODETTA's The Albums Collection 1954-62 shines like a beacon of authenticity and talent. This box set is a treasure trove of the folk singer's early recordings, showcasing her powerful voice and soul-stirring lyrics.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a time when music was raw, emotional, and truly made to move the listener. ODETTA's vocals are like a warm embrace, enveloping you in a cocoon of soulful melodies and heartfelt storytelling.

Tracks like "Water Boy" and "Cotton Fields" ooze with a haunting beauty that lingers long after the music fades. ODETTA's ability to convey pain, joy, and everything in between through her voice alone is nothing short of magical.

The production on these recordings may be sparse compared to modern standards, but that only serves to highlight ODETTA's immense talent. Her voice is front and centre, commanding attention and leaving you spellbound.

In a world where music is often treated as a commodity, ODETTA's The Albums Collection 1954-62 is a refreshing reminder of the power of true artistry. This box set is a must-have for any music lover looking to connect with something real and timeless.
