Prior to the folk revolution of the early 60's, when soloists like Joan Baez and Bob Dylan ruled, folk songs were largely performed by groups. The Weavers are easily the most famous of these vocal groups. The original quartet of Ronnie Gilbert, Fred Hellerman, Lee Hays and Pete Seeger formed in 1947. A successful career with Decca soon followed. The group was forced to disband after being blacklisted but came together again in 1955. The recording of their legendary Carnegie Hall concert is one of the most celebrated ever made. Pete Seeger left the group to pursue a solo career and Erik Darling took his place. Seeger soon returned and the group continued with varied members until their final break up in the early 60's.

Cisco's 180 gram pressing of the Weaver's fourth Vanguard album is historically accurate, right down to the misspelled title! Travelling On displays their amazing versatility with elements of folk, blues, country, sea shanties, spirituals and traditional children's songs in 16 amazing tunes. The sound is a revelation. Mastered at AcousTech from - as always - original analog tapes, Travelling On sounds more like a live concert than a studio album. Come discover that the special Weavers' magic existed in the studio as well as the concert hall.
