One More Song - Kate Wolf, Tempchin, Jack

It's a comfortable performance, scattered with stories and gentle jokes. Nina Gerber adds extra instrumental spice and Tom Diamant throws in spot-on harmony. Recorded a year before her death, An Evening in Austin includes such Wolf favorites as "Give Yourself to Love," "Friend of Mine," and "The Redtail Hawk." It's equally effective as an introduction or an overview of a much-missed artist. --Alexandra Russell« less

"An evening in Austin was my favorite Kate Wolf Album. The songs are relaxing and catchy. An evening in Austin has all of my favorite Kate Wolf Titles. I am 13 years old and I went around for weeks after I heard Green Eyes played at a restaurant. It took me practically forever to find out that it was kate wolf, and I was amazed that so few people were farmiliar with her musoic, it is SO relaxing."
"This is my favorite album to listen to in every mood. Kate Wolf's voice is true and honest. She sings mostly her own stuff and the mood goes from exuberent to pensive. This was recorded for the program "Live at Austin City Limits" and like all good live albums includes the audience as participent in the music. Kate Wolf is under-recorded as a songwriter, but this album highlights some of her best stuff."
Excellent Live CD

"Austin City Limits was the first time I had heard Kate Wolf and I was hooked. I hadn't heard of her passing till a few years later when Mary of Peter Paul and Mary mentioned what a great talent she was. I have bought many of her CD's since that Austin show and a few of her Videos too and I get info from her website."
KATE WOLF THE ANGEL OF FOLK MUSIC

"I have been a big fan of folk music ever since the "hootenanny" days back in the early 1960's. I don't know how Kate's beautiful voice and compelling lyrics passed by me but, they did, until just a few months ago, when I heard her song "Green Eyes" on "The Village" on XM radio. It was an immediate hit to my musical sensibilities so I purchased her CD "An Evening In Austin". Her music is so melodic and her lyrics are so universally meaningful that I regret not having known of her when she was alive. The world lost a gem when she passed on but fortunately she lives through her recordings for the world to continue enjoying. Thank you, Kate."
