"This is the original recording of George and Gerry Armstrong, Ed Trickett, Howie Mitchell, Win Stracke, and others, singing together for the pure joy of it; a recording that defined the spirit of the Fox Hollow Festival and became one of the most popular recordings of the early folk song revival."
-Sandy Paton, co-founder, Folk-Legacy Records

A Gathering of Friends for Making Music was first released by Folk-Legacy Records in 1964, and went on to be one of the label's most influential recordings.
