Where I'm Bound By The Kingston Trio

The Kingston Trio's rendition of one of singer-songwriter Tom Paxton's classic compositions from the 1960s. The KT originally recorded the tune on their "Stay Awhile" album on Decca Records, one of their last studio efforts near the end of the group's ten year initial run. This recording is of a live performance of the song from the group's "farewell tour" in 1966, released by Collector's Choice on the "Twice Upon A Time" CD in 2008.

For an extended discussion of the song with seven or eight other versions, see the article on Comparative Video 101, the blog associated with this channel:

It sure is nice to hear different renditions of this good old Tom Paxton tune. Our group recorded it in our CD "Still Hangin' Around" Riverbend Folk Band. Ron Wilburne is the featured singer for our version.

@darietz - Ron is a FaceBook friend of mine, and I featured you guys performing this as one of about seven versions in my Comparative Video 101 article on the song, including one by my own group, The Chilly Winds.

This recording is interesting because it shows the difference between a more polished studio song (in Stay Awhile/ Decca) and a live recording here, more soulful and moving.They seem more concerned here about the words. In the Stay awhile album they seem more concerned about  the sound.Thanks for posting.
