Album Description: 'Vintage Songs Of Yosemite' is a compilation of rare recordings of past Yosemite entertainers, along with Tom Bopp's own performances of previously unrecorded songs. You'll also hear a recreation of the famous 'Fire Fall Calls' that were exchanged between Glacier Point and the valley floor, before the singing of 'Indian Love Call.' Call it music, call it high camp; these unique artifacts come alive in 'Vintage Songs Of Yosemite', providing a nostalgic tour through the dizzying variety of ways Yosemite has been interpreted by popular culture over the years. From the Artist: It is such a pleasure to share these musical impressions of Yosemite, most of which have rested unsung in piano benches for decades. These songs and old records remind me that, while current expressions of Yosemite will someday become dated curiosities, the best of them will commemorate the timeless Yosemite experience for years to come.
