Country & Western Hits 1964
* Digibook
1-CD Deluxe-Album mit 72-seitigem Booklet, 31 Einzeltitel. Spieldauer ca. 81 Minuten. - Nach den ersten Jahrgangs-CDs über die Jahre 1945-1960 hat es sich herumgesprochen: Diese Serie ist die ultimative, alles ist grandios ausgestattet und makellos neu gemastert. Kurz: Genau so, wie man es von Bear Family erwartet - und noch besser! Jack Clement, der Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, Waylon Jennings, Don Williams, Charley Pride und viele andere produziert hat, erklärte: 'Dies ist die beste Country-Serie aller Zeiten, keine Frage.' Robert Hilburn schrieb in der 'Los Angeles Times': 'Ein unbezahlbares Projekt, das den Fans einen Zeitsprung zurück erlaubt, um wie am Radio Musik zu hören, wie es Elvis Presley, Ray Charles und Bob Dylan getan haben.' Und der Produzent Allen Reynolds (Garth Brooks, Emmylou Harris und andere) nahm Richard Weize von Bear Family in der Country Music Hall of Fame zur Seite und beglückwünschte ihn zu dieser Serie. - Jetzt wird die Serie mit den Jahren 1961-1965 fortgeschrieben. Jedes der umfangreichen Booklets ist randvoll mit seltenen Fotos und Illustrationen sowie mit Hintergrundinformationen zu allen Songs! Die Hits werden ergänzt um Raritäten, die die Country Music beeinflussten - und generell die Musik der folgenden Jahre. Diese Serie wurde geschaffen, um neuen Zuhörern das Beste zu präsentieren, das die Country Music anzubieten hat und um kenntnisreiche Fans zu unterhalten. Jede einzelne Folge ist eine Zeitreise. Dies ist die Musik, die die White Stripes, Gillian Welch, Gram Parsons, Nick Cave und viele andere beeinflusste. Diese Musik machte den kalifornischen Country Rock erst möglich, sie brachte die Beatles und viele andere maßgebliche Bands in die Spur. Mit anderen Worten: Dies ist die wahre, ungeschönte Geschichte der Country Music. All das, was man einfach gehört haben muss, Jahr für Jahr und so, wie es sich zugetragen hat. - Wir machen weiter mit den Jahren 1961 bis 1965. Dieses neue Song-Paket enthält die Originalversionen klassischer Hits sowie unterbewertete, spätere Klassiker und Beinahe-Hits wie Claude Grays 'I'll Just Have A Cup Of Coffee' (von Bob Marley schon 1962 gecovert!), Wynn Stewarts 'Big Big Love' (inzwischen ein TV-Werbesong), Anita Carters Originalfassung von 'Ring Of Fire', die australische Originalversion von 'I've Been Everywhere', Loretta Lynns 'Success' (gecovert von Sinead O'Connor), Billy Walkers Original von 'Funny (How Time Slips Away)', den ungekürzten Ray-Price-Klassiker 'Nite Life' (von Willie Nelson), Billy Grammars Originalfassung von 'Detroit City' (mit dem Titel 'I Wanna Go Home'), Johnny Cashs kontroverses 'Ballad Of Ira Hayes' plus das dazugehörige Original von Peter LaFarge. - Damit nicht genug! Jede CD enthält ein extrem detailliertes 72-Seiten-Booklet mit den Geschichten hinter den Songs, mit seltenen Fotos, Labelabbildungen und vollständigen discographischen Informationen.
1-CD deluxe album with 72-page booklet, 31 tracks. Playing time approx. 81 mns. - After the volumes covering 1945-1960 were released, the word was out. This series is definitive, fabulously packaged, and faultlessly remastered! In short, everything you'd expect from Bear Family...and more! Jack Clement, who produced Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, Waylon Jennings, Don Williams, Charley Pride, and many others, said, 'This is the best country series of all time. No doubt. No question.' Robert Hilburn in the 'Los Angeles Times' said, 'An invaluable album project...enables fans to step back in time and listen to the radio just like Elvis Presley, Ray Charles, and Bob Dylan did.' Producer Allen Reynolds (Garth Brooks, Emmylou Harris, and many others) stopped Bear Family's Richard Weize at the Country Music Hall of Fame to congratulate him on the series. - Now the story continues from 1961 until 1965. Every CD is generously full. Every booklet is extensive and chocked full of rare photos and illustrations, as well as complete stories behind the songs! In addition to the hits, the series contains rarities that went on to influence country music...and all music...in the years ahead. This series is designed to introduce new listeners to the very best that country music has to offer... while keeping longtime fans entertained. Every volume is a fabulous time capsule. This is the music that influenced the White Stripes, Gillian Welch, Gram Parsons, Nick Cave, and many, many others. This is the music that gave birth to California country rock. This is the music that influenced the Beatles and many other seminal bands. In other words, this is the true and uncensored history of country music. Everything you need to hear, year-by-year, as it happened! - Picking up the story in 1961 and continuing until 1965, this new batch includes original versions of classic hits and also includes neglected classics and shoulda been hits like Claude Gray's 'I'll Just Have A Cup Of Coffee' (covered by Bob Marley in 1962!), Wynn Stewart's 'Big Big Love' (now a TV commercial song), Anita Carter's original version of 'Ring Of Fire', the original Australian version of 'I've Been Everywhere', Loretta Lynn's 'Success' (covered by Sinead O'Connor), Billy Walker's original version of 'Funny (How Time Slips Away)', Ray Price's classic full-length version of Willie Nelson's 'Nite Life', Billy Grammer's original version of 'Detroit City' (titled 'I Wanna Go Home'), Johnny Cash's controversial native American song 'Ballad Of Ira Hayes' plus Peter LaFarge's original version. - There's even more! Incredibly detailed 72-page books go with every CD featuring exclusive behind-the-scenes stories, rare photos, record label shots, and complete discographical information.
