Review by Greg Prato
Since he only left a precious few full-length albums behind, fans have always cl
amored for more recordings from the late/great Jim Croce. Probably one of the mo
st sought-after items was an ultrarare album that Croce issued himself back in 1
966, Facets. With 500 dollars in his pocket (a wedding gift from his parents), C
roce recorded 11 tracks and pressed up 500 copies of the resulting album -- all
of which were snapped up except for a handful. With the majority of Croce's fans
never having the chance to hear these early tracks, the folks at Shout Factory
have finally reissued this ultrarare recording (on CD for the very first time) - as it's been expanded to a two-disc set, which includes seven collaborative tr
acks between Jim and his wife, Ingrid Croce, titled "Jim and Ingrid Too." Of cou
rse, Facets is aimed strictly at Croce's most ardent fans, but they won't be dis
appointed. Although Croce was still finding his own voice and style, such tracks
as "Steel Rail Blues" show that the singer/guitarist was already on his way to
greatness. On the second disc, the music resembles more of the acoustic/folk sty
le that Croce would become aligned with during the early '70s, while Ingrid's vo
cals harmoniously coexist with Jim's, especially on such standouts as "Child of
Midnight," "It's All Over, Mary Ann," and especially the delightful "Hard Times
Be Over."
