About this album

The New Folk Sound Of Terry Callier is a striking debut that reveals how naturally Terry Callier bridged folk tradition, blues feeling and soul phrasing. Released in 1966, the album finds him reworking traditional songs and original material with a calm, intimate delivery that sets him apart from the folk revival crowd. His version of “900 Miles” became especially admired for its tenderness and control, while the record as a whole helped establish Callier as a distinctive singer-songwriter with rare emotional depth. Long overlooked, it is now widely regarded as an early statement of his singular artistry.

Genre: Soul & Funk, Jazz
