Editorial Reviews

Album Description
Peter La Farge on the Warpath and As Long As the Grass Shall Grow are Peter La Farge's two best-realized albums. Combined here on one CD, there are 26 songs with a final spoken invocation. The best material is from On the Warpath, La Farge's last album, including "The Ballad of Ira Hayes" and the chilling "Crimson Parson" (about Col. Chivington and the Sand Creek massacre), are most effective, but the material off of the other record, including the wider-ranging "Alaska" and "Tecumseh," is well worth hearing. La Farge's spare approach to his music can make these 26 songs somewhat difficult to take in one sitting, but it is a perspective on topical songwriting that few people presented and is worth hearing on that basis alone, to see what even some of the hardcore folkies found too rich for their blood. ~ Bruce Eder, All Music Guide
