Return to the Land

Gordon Bok, a prolific musician for Folk-Legacy Records, is a folksinger and songwriter from Camden, Maine. Return to the Land was the last album of new material he recorded for the label in 1990. Here, he performs new and traditional songs, including two of his own, sung in his warm bass and accompanied on his characteristic 12-string guitar and fretted-cello invention, the cellamba.
