The New Folk Sound of Terry Callier is the 1968 debut album from American folk and soul performer Terry Callier, released on Prestige Records. The album has received positive reviews from critics.

Recording and release

Callier started recording as a teenager for Chess Records in 1962 but did not record an album for the first two years he was a professional musician.[4] The album was recorded by Samuel Charters, who courted Callier to come to Prestige in 1964 but after the sessions, he ran off to Mexico, delaying the actual album release from 1965[5] to 1968.[3] Callier did not even know the album was released until his brother saw it for sale in a book store.[2] Craft Recordings released a 50th anniversary edition on November 2, 2018.[5]

Critical reception

The editorial staff of AllMusic Guide gave the release four out of five stars, with Jason Ankeny writing that the album is not Callier's best but "it's his most timeless and inviting".[1] Remarking on the 50th anniversary edition, Charles Donovan of PopMatters calls the original "a terrific album" and the re-release "stunning".[5]
