I'm Old Kentucky Bound 1938-56 4-CD Box&Book
Der ältere der Monroe-Brüder! Bill Monroe trennte sich von seinem Bruder Charlie und erfand schließlich die Bluegrass-Musik. Wir möchten hier die Geschichte von Charlie nach dem Zerwürfnis mit Bill erzählen. Charlie stand nun auf eigenen Füssen und konnte sein ganzes Talent zeigen. Er war ein freundlicher Mensch und seine Gruppe, die Kentucky Pardners, fühlte sich bei hohen Geschwindigkeiten ebenso wohl wie Bills Blue Grass Boys. Vielleicht eroberte Charlie weniger neues musikalisches Terrain als Bill. Auf alle Fälle besaß seine Musik einen lebendigen und persönlichen Sound. Und er konnte ein paar Hits landen, allen voran 'Bringing In The Georgia Mail'. Charlies Stimme war hoch, lieblich und munter. Mit seinem grenzenlosen Optimismus traf er den Nerv der Zeit während des Zweiten Weltkriegs und er konnte seine Popularität durch die gesamten vierziger Jahre bewahren. -- Seit jenen Tagen war Charlies Musik nur schwer zu bekommen. Zu Unrecht geriet er in Vergessenheit, und man erinnerte ihn fast ausschließlich als Bills gelegentlichen Sparringpartner. Bis heute. -- Im Jahre 2002 packte Bear Family das gesamte Material der Monroe Brothers auf eine umfangreiche Bill Monroe-Zusammenstellung (BCD 16399). Diese Edition hier ist so etwas wie der Weggenosse jener viel gepriesenen Monroe-Ausgabe. Erstmals bekommen wir Gelegenheit, Charlie Monroes Aufnahmen von 1938 bis 1956 - einschließlich all seiner Einspielungen für RCA/Bluebird und Decca - zu genießen und neu zu bewerten. -- Charlie wusste, wie er eigenständige, mitreißende Musik produzieren konnte. Mit dieser historischen Veröffentlichung schließt Bear Family seine umfangreiche Monroe-Serie ab. Sämtliche Studioaufnahmen beider Monroe-Brüder liegen nun als hypermoderne Sets mit sorgfältigst restauriertem Klang, mit zuverlässigen Kommentaren und Originalfotos vor. -- Eine Bonus-CD liefert von Mike Seeger gemachte Liveaufnahmen der Jahre 1955/56 von der New River Ranch. -- / -- The other Monroe brother! Bill Monroe split from his older brother, Charlie, and went on to invent bluegrass music. This is the story of what happened to Charlie after that rift. Striking out on his own, Charlie developed his own ample talents rooted in his affable personality. His group, the Kentucky Pardners, like Bill's Blue Grass Boys, could operate at high speeds without discomfort. Though Charlie might not have conquered as much new musical territory as Bill, his music had a vivid personal sound. And he scored some hits, notably 'Bringing In The Georgia Mail'. -- Charlie's voice was high, sweet and animated, radiating boundless good cheer that buoyed the spirits of his wartime audiences and sustained his popularity through the 1940s. Because Charlie's music has rarely been available since then, he's been unjustly consigned to historical neglect as little more than Bill's occasional sparring partner. Until now. -- In 2002, Bear Family added all the Monroe Brothers material to a comprehensive Bill Monroe collection (BCD 16399). This collection is very much the companion to that highly-praised volume, and we may now enjoy and re-evaluate Charlie Monroe's recorded music from 1938 to 1956... including every recording for RCA/Bluebird and Decca. Charlie knew how to create inspired music on his own terms, and with this historic release, Bear Family completes its comprehensive Monroe series, making all the studio recordings of both Monroe Brothers available on state-of-the-art sets with skillfully restored sound, authoritative annotations, and original photographs. -- A bonus disc features live performances from 1955 and 1956 at the New River Ranch recorded by Mike Seeger.
