Lilith Fair: A Celebration Of Women In Music

CD Details

Lilith Fair: A Celebration of Women in Music is a live compilation from 1998 featuring performances from the inaugural Lilith Fair festival, an all-female touring event created by Sarah McLachlan. The album showcases artists including Dayna Manning, Emmylou Harris, and the Indigo Girls, among many others, performing across folk, country, pop, and rock styles. These live recordings capture powerful vocal performances that often surpass the artists’ studio recordings, with standout moments like Paula Cole’s rendition of “Mississippi” and McLachlan’s “Building a Mystery,” which became synonymous with the festival itself.

This two-disc CD set contains 25 live tracks spanning the range and diversity of women in music during the late 1990s. Songs include “Scooter Boys,” “Sur Tres Pas,” “Been It,” “I Want,” “Four Leaf Clover,” “Falling In Love,” “Loneliness Of The Long Distance Runner,” “El Payande,” “Eternal Flame,” and “Rock In This Pocket (Song Of David),” among others. Grab this used copy and experience the energy of a landmark moment in music history.
