1-CD DigiPac (4-plated) with 32-page booklet, 30 tracks. Playing time approx. 79 mns. - Unique home demos. 29 previously unreleased acoustic recordings from the mythical creator of 1969's 'Harlan County'. Hear Jim Ford's creativity captured by a private cassette recorder in his living room. Many tracks on this anthology would be potential hits in the hands of today's artists. Stunning musical moments are interrupted by friends, drug deals, etc. Liner notes by singer, songwriter, musician, artist (and Jim Ford fanatic) Jeb Loy Nichols. - Jim Ford is the mythic artist behind 1969's legendary country soul album 'Harlan County'. After recording his sole album he hung out with Sly Stone and wrote for artists and friends like Bobby Womack, PJ Proby, The Temptations & Nick Lowe before completely disappearing from the scene in a haze of drugs and irrational behavior. When Bear Family managed to track Ford down in 2006 he was living in North California in a simple mobile home loaded with reel to reel tapes and cassettes. Some of these masters were included by Bear Family on popular anthologies like 'Sounds Of Our Time' and 'Point Of No Return.' - This brand new CD, 'Demolition Expert' (Ford was a demolition expert when stationed in Germany during his stint in the U.S. army), sets focus on Jim Ford's acoustic home recordings. It is a unique opportunity for the listener to hear Jim's creativity flow. - You're invited to Jim Ford's living room to witness him come up with some truly soul shattering musical moments. You will also hear Jim be interrupted with drug deals on the phone and friends chattering and singing along. The recordings are a welcome and essential addition to any Jim Ford collection.

Last Train To San Fernando 4-CD & 28-PAG.BOOK 78,67 €

Sun, 26 May 2013 08:50:15 +0200

Obwohl er in den 50ern nur einige wenige Songs in den Charts hatte mit Last Train To San Fernando, Footprints In The Snow und Blue Blue Heartaches, hatte Duncan eine riesige Fangemeinde. Seine späteren Aufnahmen waren mehr country als skiffle doch behielt er einen eigenen Stil bei. Um diesen Mann und seine Musik zu würdigen war dieser Set überfällig. Er enthält sämtliche Original Aufnahmen für Columbioa England, Pye, Lucky und Decca. Eine detaillierte Discographie und Biographie mit vielen nie vorher gezeigten Fotos ist mit dabei.Skiffle was a phenomenon; Lonnie Donegan was a phenomenon. Many thought the two were the same thing, until rock 'n' roll killed off skiffle - and Lonnie became a fixture in the British music scene. Here is the complete story of Lonnie on Decca and Pye, from 1954 to 1966. Demos from Lonnie's personal collection and radio broadcasts round out the 209 songs on this set. These were the records that changed the face of music in England. From the groundbreaking Rock Island Line to the bandwagon-jumping World Cup Willie, all Donegan's hits and misses for Decca and Pye are here, together with rare and previously unissued tracks! Donegan may have been skiffle's great star but he graduated to make some fine pop and country recordings, all of which are included here. The box also contains a detailed discography, biography, dozens of fine pictures and memorabilia and an indepth interview with the man himself.

My North Country Home (3-CD DigiPac) 49,90 €

Sun, 26 May 2013 08:50:15 +0200

3-CD DigiPac with 68-page booklet, 82 tracks, playing time 242:42. -- A 3-CD collection of Canadian-penned material, by the most famous Canadian songwriters - Gordon Lightfoot, Ian Tyson, Ray Griff, Buffy St. Marie, Joni Mitchell, Bruce Cockburn, Leonard Cohen, Dick Damron, Gene MacLellan, and others. George Hamilton IV recorded 16 Gordon Lightfoot songs - more than any other artist in history. All are found on this collection. Contains all of George Hamilton IV's 'country-folk' era material from 1965-1975, showcasing his fascination for 'Canadiana'. An essential collection for George Hamilton IV fans, and collectors of Canadian country music. -- George Hamilton IV will always be known as the 'International Ambassador Of Country Music.' The perennial Grand Ole Opry star has been in the limelight since his first hit 'A Rose And A Baby Ruth' in 1956. After George's biggest hit, 'Abilene', in 1963, he began recording in a folkier style, what he called 'songs that had story lines, painted pictures and, most importantly, songs that said something.' When he heard Gordon Lightfoot on the radio while touring Canada, he focused his attention on a crop of up-and-coming singer/songwriters from North of the Border. Soon George was recording 'folk-country' songs by Lightfoot, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen, Ray Griff, Ian Tyson, and many of Canada's brightest young songwriters (many of whom would go on to huge solo careers). George became immensely popular in Canada, and had his own television show broadcast out of Hamilton, Ontario. Between 1965 and 1975, George Hamilton IV recorded six albums of all-Canadian music (some of which were only released in Canada). This collection is the first time that these Canadian songs by Hamilton have ever been compiled, and will excite many of George's fans who have never heard this great material. As George puts it: 'I really do feel like the Canadian songwriters lifted country music out of just the cheating and drinking songs, and caused the music to become more appealing to city kids, and people outside of America'.

Hawk 1953-1961 3-CD & BOOK/BUCH 49,90 €

Sun, 26 May 2013 08:50:15 +0200

These days he's chiefly remembered as the guy who died in the plane crash with Patsy Cline and Cowboy Copas, but throughout the '50s Hawkshaw made excellent country music and was just hitting his stride when he died in 1963. In 1953 he switched from King to RCA Victor, and that's where we pick up the story. Two years later, he became a regular member of the Grand Ole Opry. Described as the man with 11-and-a-half yards of personality, Hawkins had a warm and engaging voice, and was able to handle a wide variety of material from slow heart songs to early rock 'n' roll and Johnny Horton-styled saga songs. This is a complete edition of his RCA and Columbia recordings, and includes 'One White Horse', 'Car Hoppin' Mama', 'Ling Ting Tong', 'If It Ain't On The Menu', 'Put A Nickel In The Jukebox', 'Sunny Side Of The Mountain', and his hit Soldier's Joy. - The set was deleted for several years. We found a stash of booklets and now we're happy to make it available again. When this supply is exhausted, he set is really gone.

Standing Somewhere In The Shadows - 1953,Plus 15,74 €

Sun, 26 May 2013 08:50:15 +0200

1-CD Digipak (4-plated) with 52-page booklet, 22 tracks, playing time approx. 56 mns. -- FOUND: The lost, legendary 1946 & 1953 King Records of the Bailes Brothers. Sequels to Bear Family's surprise best-seller, 'Oh So Many Years.' Sibling country harmony at its finest and most haunting! Previously unissued duets with Webb Pierce! Previously unissued King recordings! None of these recordings has been available since the 78 RPM era! Influenced the Everly Brothers and many others! -- Arriving from West Virginia, the Bailes Brothers were an instant success when they debuted on the Grand Ole Opry in 1944, introducing 'I Want To Be Loved', 'Dust On The Bible', 'Remember Me' and other songs and hymns that have become country and bluegrass standards. -- The Bailes Brothers' story is as compelling as their music. Dick Spottswood's essay sheds light on their career and troubled personal lives, including astonishing details of how they were fired from the Opry at the height of their success, how they alienated Columbia Records in spite of being best-selling artists, and how they wound up in obscurity and poverty after sabotaging a second career as headliners at the fabled Louisiana Hayride in Shreveport. This two-volume collection includes the Bailes Brothers' complete King recordings, created at a legendary marathon session in 1946 and at three more sessions in 1953 when Johnnie and Walter were living in East Texas, and picking themselves up after many reversals of fortune. -- Digital transfers from original master discs and tapes assure optimal sound quality and enhance the voices of Johnnie and Walter, the immortal Bailes Brothers. This is country harmony at its all-time best. The second volume in this two-volume set, BCD 17133, includes several recordings from 1957 with Webb Pierce singing harmony. These and a session from 1959 are reissued here for the first time.

8-CD box (LP-size) incl. interview cd, with 48-page book, 166 tracks. Playing time approx. 428 mns. -- In 1963 Jerry Lee signed with Smash Records, and battled the British Invasion, radio apathy and general neglect. The result was a lot of good music that fell on deaf ears. Here's everything from five frustrating years, including the complete contents of great Jerry Lee albums like 'Memphis Beat', 'Return Of Rock', 'Country Songs For City Folks', as well as wonderful forgotten singles like I'm On Fire and She Was My Baby He Was My Friend. The set covers the years from 1963 to 1969 and concludes with the country hits from 1968 and 1969, like 'Another Place Another Time', 'What's Made Milwaukee Famous', and 'She Even Woke Me Up To Say Goodbye', when Jerry's career was spectacularly reborn in country music. As a bonus, there's a complete interview with music conducted in 1976.

The Ballads Of Johnny Horton 16,49 €

Sun, 26 May 2013 08:50:15 +0200

BCD 16384 (1-CD digipack with 28-page booklet, 25 tracks, playingtime: 66:42) A new slant on one of the greatest country artists of all time! Some well-known hits'North To Alaska, All For The Love Of A Girl, When It's Springtime In Alaska'plus many overlooked gems!-- Originally, a 'ballad' was a story song, and then it became shorthand for a slow love song. Johnny Horton was the master of both sorts of 'ballads. ' Bear Family has issued everything that Johnny Horton ever recorded on two monumental boxed sets, and we have also issued the best of his rock'n'roll recordings. Now, on this exclusive single CD collection, we've focused upon his ballads, and emphasized just what a great singer he was. The set was compiled by Richard Bennett, who has produced Emmylou Harris and currently works with Mark Knopfler. As Bennett writes, -Horton's voice was big, infectious and friendly, bursting with charisma and personality. While he is much admired for the rocking up-tempo tunes and the mega hit 'Battle Of New Orleans,' Johnny Horton is less remembered as the great ballad singer he was. Very often the flip side of the record was where the heartfelt ballad was hiding or maybe a few would turn up tucked into a long playing album. It's these overlooked treasures that make up this set.-
