American Railroad from The Silkroad Ensemble gives us a new perspective on history and is an incredible collection of songs and music.

'Song Keepers' by Georgann Eubanks is a loving testament to the musicians who have performed and recorded with the Music Makers Foundation.

'Songs of Our Native Daughters' from Our Native Daughters is as rich and textured, and fraught with violence and emotional turmoil, as the history of Africans in the West.

'Freedom Highway' from Rhiannon Giddens is one of those amazing rarities, a politically charged and artistically refined album. The music is spectacular, the lyrics are beautiful and inspiring, and the singing is as glorious as you'll hear anywhere.

This is a strong and powerful album that captures a wide range of feelings and will be very satisfying to any listener.
