Favorite Folk Songs

From a favorite old Record (33/LP) of Russian Melodies played by Emil Decameron and his orchestra. It is a Vanguard Everyman Classics album.
A critique for The Oregonian said of Emil Decameron's Orchestra:
"This was a new ensemble to us, something of a cu above Mantovani and Kostelanetz. The take some Yiddish and Russian folk songs, give them characteristic but bright orchestral trimmings, and make some exciting music of an unusual style."

Sung by a soloist in Fred Waring's choir for the LP album, This Is My Country. This is track 8.

This is a wonderfully energetic classic American folk song by the unforgettable Ames Brothers quartet. You will love some of the sound effects they worked into this recording!

A piece of American Folk music sung by the beautiful blended voices of the Ames Brothers. Wonderful orchestral and choral background. This is from their LP Album called "Words & Music", another of our family's favorites in our library of Long Playing Records. (Mom will never give up her record player or collection! It is so nice and simple to work.)

Track 2-if you will excuse the fact that my count started on side 2.

This song is an excerpt from The Ames Brothers Album, "The Ames Brothers Sing Famous Hits of Famous Quartets". The Chorus is what made this song so memorable. Songs of olden days sometimes had a sad morale to it. That seems to be the case in the original verses sung here. It was considered a warning to the young and foolish.

Here is a fun and lively Rumba rythmic song sung by the Ames Brothers. It has that "South of the Border" color to it.
