The folk revival of the 1960s would have sounded very different if Dave Van Ronk had taken Noel Paul Stookey and Mary Travers up on their offer to become the third member of the group that later became Peter, Paul, and Mary. But, as he insisted at the time, he was a blues and jazz singer, not a folkie, and the music on Two Sides of Dave Van Ronk bears him out. This CD pairs his 1963 LP In the Tradition, which includes six tracks with the Red Onion Jazz Band, with nine of the original 11 tracks from his 1983 LP Your Basic Dave Van Ronk. Jazz and blues are pretty much interchangeable to Van Ronk, and he delights in mixing the two together, as he does when he adds some raucous scat singing to his version of the Reverend Gary Davis classic "Candy Man" or bends his guitar strings Mississippi Delta-style on his rendition of Billie Holiday's "God Bless the Child." The raunchy blues and raucous jazz on Two Sides of Dave Van Ronk are a welcome reminder that folk music is more than ancient ballads and sensitive singer-songwriters. --Michael Simmons - Amazon
