Folk Songs is an album by bassist Charlie Haden, saxophonist Jan Garbarek and guitarist Egberto Gismonti recorded in 1979 and released on the ECM label.[1] The album follows the trio's first recording Magico (1979).
Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4 stars stating "One of the better ECM recordings... filled with moody originals, improvisations that blend together jazz and world music, and atmospheric ensembles. This date works well both as superior background music and for close listening".[2]
