The Kingston Trio - At Large With The Kingston Trio
Review by Sam Brett-Atkin
At Large With The Kingston Trio, the iconic folk group's fourth album, is a testament to the band's enduring popularity and influence. Released in 1959, the album features some of the band's most beloved songs, including "M.T.A.," "Tom Dooley," and "Hard, Ain't It Hard."
The album showcases the Kingston Trio's signature blend of tight harmonies, virtuosic guitar playing, and witty lyrics. Songs like "M.T.A.," a humorous tale of a man trapped on a Boston subway train, and "Tijuana Jail," a rollicking number about getting arrested in Mexico, demonstrate the band's ability to infuse their music with humor and storytelling.
At Large With The Kingston Trio also features some more introspective tracks, such as "The Seine," a haunting ballad about lost love, and "Sloop John B," a traditional sea shanty that the band transformed into a poignant meditation on homesickness and nostalgia.

It was with great pleasure and a great honor to have known and worked with the original Kingston Trio and their legacy today is firmly intact. As the exclusive agency for the heirs we at Producers, Inc. enjoy seeing the original energy and sound kept alive and well for sold-out audiences across the country.
I enjoyed many hours of fun and adventure with BOB SHANE. He ran the organization and kept the TRIO and legacy active these many years. Thank you, Bob for your loyalty, perseverance and love of folk music and its impact world-wide. We will continue our responsibility to keep your music alive. You will be missed.
