Album: New Frontier/Time To Think

Category: Folk

LYRICS FROM "COAL TATTOO"
I've been coal miner all of my life.
     Layin' down track in the hole.
Got a back like an ironwood, bit by the wind.
     Blood veins blue as the coal...
Somebody said, "That's a strange tattoo
     you have on the side of your head."
I said, "That's the blueprint left by the coal.
     A little more and I'd have been dead." more

ALBUM REVIEW

album cover for The Kingston Trio, New Frontier/Time To Think As a look back at the somewhat less mechanized days of coal mining, "Coal Tattoo" fits well into the Kingston Trio's general rock-tinged folk. The song is on the double-album CD reissue of "New Frontier" and "Time to Think," which features some of KT's most serious—and best—songwriting and playing efforts. Examples include "Patriot Game," "Adios Farewell," "New Frontier," "Deportee," and "Turn Around." Even though there was only one hit single between the two original albums (it was "Greenback Dollar"), the overall strength of the albums' songs garners this double-album CD a high recommendation.
