5 out of 5 stars Back In Time.......2001-02-23

I went back to my youth yesterday when I put on this upbeat CD. Once again I was sitting on a gym floor of a local college or in an auditorium chair, as I listened to the Brothers Four in person! I found myself smiling and singing along with four old friends. Their music is timeless and their voices - WOW!

5 out of 5 stars Greenfields.......2001-02-04

I knew John when we were teenagers in the State of Washington. When I heard his hit, GREENFIELDS, I wasn't the least surprised. He was the singer at parties which were frequent occurrences in the Wenatchee Valley. When he danced, he had music in his feet. He would twirl his girl, in her full skirt with many petticoats around the dance floor in a flurry, always in time to the music. He was a fegi and was very proud of that accomplishment...

Sincerely, The FstShusher from the Valley...

5 out of 5 stars One of two Best of Brothers Four.......1999-12-18

This CD on Vanguard, is one of TWO that are out. This one is the "Best of", the other "Greatest Hits." This one is my favorite, although I have both. There are SEVEN songs on this CD that are not on any other. "Four Strong Winds" is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.

4 out of 5 stars Great collection and excellent sound quality........1999-01-14

I have recently had a "return to the folk era" frenzy and purchased several of the Brothers disks. This is the best in my opinion. The hits here are the ones I remember the group being famous for. It's a fairly short CD, but what's there is good.
