The Serendipity Singers (1964)


Here's the really great debut album of the Serendipity Singers - love them! It has their big hit "Crooked Little Man", but all the songs are great! I really like the album cover, too - reminds me of the movie "A Mighty Wind". I sure do miss the folk groups from back in the day (although I was too young to appreciate them them). Are there any groups nowadays that are similar to the Serendipity Singers? If any of you know of any, I would appreciate it if you tell me about them!

Track listing for The Serendipity Singers:

Side 1:
1. Waggoneer Lad
2. Crooked Little Man
3. Sunshine Special
4. Mud
5. Freedom's Star
6. Sailing Away

Side 2:

Fun stuff, I had their other album but not this one - thank you so much for the share - as for others groups - none today that I know of (more's the pity for this generation eh?)

... And I always thought that song was called "Don't Let The Rain Come Down".

Thanks for putting me right.

My oldest brother had this album which came out about the time I was born. I bought the CD version from Collectables when it was paired with their 2nd album.
