 I love these Albums! December 30, 1999
28 out of 30 found this review helpful
My Grandmother has three records by the Norman Luboff Choir. Songs of the South, Songs of the Sea, Songs of the West. She has played them for me and I have had them memorized ever since I could talk. I still listen to them sometimes. The albums are kind of scratched due to old age, however I have copied them onto audiotapes so I could play them in the car. I have discovered that Songs of th Sea and Songs of the South are available on CD Format. Could you please encourage Columbia records to convert Songs of the West to CD?
The best version of "Dixie" in the world December 29, 1999
16 out of 17 found this review helpful
OK, never heard of the Norman Luboff choir? Well, thanks to my dear old Mom, I have. When I was a kid, I listened to this choir's recording of Songs of the South. No choir or group does them better. The rendition of "Dixie" is sung as a hymn, the way it should be. No fast trumpet solos and Confederate flags here; just a heartfelt, haunting version of the song that's sure to please any Southerner. Check out the other great versions on this album, too: Kemo Kimo; Boll Weevil; Swing Low, Sweet Chariot; Un Deux Trois and a fine version of the politcally incorrect (and rightfully so) Carry Me Back to Old Virginny. Many of these renditions are slow, beautiful meldings of voices that really capture the imagination. This is a 5-star CD for anyone who touts their Southern roots.
I am thrilled to find this album on a CD April 12, 2000

transfixed horror March 14, 2006
4 out of 15 found this review helpful
The deep sickness manifested by this kind of music can not be described, it must be heard. Norman Luboff had a talent for taking wonderful old folk songs and stirring spirituals, sapping the life from them like a vampire drains the blood from a comatose victim, and making them sound as if they were being sung by a church choir on quaaludes. Listening to it is akin to gawking at a traffic accident or a freak-show monster, with a reaction of transfixed horror.
More Luboff please June 1, 2004

I agree with the other reviewers who praised the Luboff recordings. I would love to see the Songs of the West in CD format too. These are classic versions of songs from our nation's heritage. We have to get them into digital format for future listeners. Collectables, please press the Songs of the West.Thanks.
