BIG MON - RICKY SKAGGS & FRIENDS
The Songs Of Bill Monroe
Skaggs Family Records 2000
Various Artists Produced By Ricky Skaggs
http://www88.zippyshare.com/v/l20NpDo9/file.html
Though the late Bill Monroe is generally acknowledged as the father of bluegrass--he
literally forged this strident musical hybrid from earlier mountain string-band styles in
the 1940s--his musical legacy has reached far beyond the often narrow confines of the style
he created. Fittingly, a giddy stylistic range of artists help Monroe disciple Ricky Skaggs
prove this point on this brilliant salute to the Big Mon. Bruce Hornsby opens with a
haunting, soaring rendition of the murder ballad "Darlin' Corey." John Fogerty unleashes an
absolutely stunning neorockabilly revival of "Blue Moon of Kentucky," a Monroe classic that
was also an early hit for Elvis Presley. With his deft scat singing and lead-guitar work,
Steve Wariner transforms Monroe's stalwart "Heavy Traffic Ahead" into a sprightly jazz-pop
excursion. Country-rocker Charlie Daniels also shines on his reverent gospel-blues rendition
of "I Am a Pilgrim." Though Skaggs keeps a surprisingly low profile throughout, he and Joan
Osborne duet movingly with "On the Old Kentucky Shore." Skaggs's genre-blending tribute may
make bluegrass purists bristle, but this collection succeeds as few other tributes have in
reminding listeners of the amazing breadth of Monroe's legacy. --Bob Allen (Amazon)
Somewhere in the echoing caverns of the back of my mind I feel that this record was posted
sometime recently. But as I can't seem to remember when nor find it, I'm posting it anyway.
We all know and love Bill Monroe. This past March and April Lefty, over at his Don't Fence
Me In blog, spent a couple of weeks posting Bill Monroe recordings from the 30s up until
shortly before his death. I highly recommend a visit to Lefty's blog.
Ricky Skaggs is now a veteran of Bluegrass and mandolin himself, and he assembled some great
Monroe devotees for this record. But it's not really bluegrass. I call most of these
recordings country, although you just may call it something else, maybe even pop. But for
me it is a very enjoyable listen if only for John Fogerty and the multi-talented Dwight
Yoakum. But then there's The Whites. And Travis Tritt... and... You get the picture. -- JohnnyDiego

The Belltowers - Day Breakaway '15 @320
Don't miss this great release! (Gyro1966)
The BellTowers are a Garage Folk Psych band from Orlando, Florida, featuring Paul Mutchler (guitar, vocals), Eddie Foeller (guitar, harp), Marshall Huggins (bass, vocals) and Tom Miller
(drums). "Day Breakaway" their long awaited debut full length is finally here and, boy, was it worth the wait! Twelve amazing new slabs of jangle, 60's garage pop bringing back to mind the Paisley Underground bands such as The Rain Parade, The Long Ryders and The Three O'Clock but also the bands that originated it all in the sixties: The Byrds, Love, The Hollies and Buffalo Springfield. The production by the band itself is absolutely pristine, the arrangements are impressive, the vocal harmonies are suave and the songwriting is brilliant: Sunkissed psychedelia and irresistible hooks, with the band’s electrifying blast of folk-rock garage spangle... If you thrilled to the Byrds, it’s time to meet your new favourite band! (Ratboy)

J.P. ROBINSON - What Can I Tell Her 1968-1974 @320
Wonderful work from the overlooked JP Robinson – a killer soul singer on the Miami scene at the end of the 60s – finally given his due in this overstuffed set! Robinson's got a voice that's quite compelling – still in the deep soul mode you might expect, but with this slightly fragile quality that comes through especially when he's trying to hold a note or emotion – a really great aspect that almost makes you feel like JP's going to break down right in the course of a tune, even when he's getting a bit of support from female backup singers! And speaking of backup, the rhythms here are all pretty great – as tunes were recorded at Muscle Shoals, Criteria, and the TK Studios – with the kind of top-shelf talent that really helped knock all these singles out of the park. Material was originally issued on the Atlantic and TK family of labels – and titles include "You Can Be A Lady", "Doggone It", "George Jackson", "Our Day Is Here", "Keep Me Satisfied", "Only Be True To Me", "Love Is Not A Stranger", "I've Got A Long Way To Go", "Say It", "Hot Love", "You Got Your Thing On A String", and "Wall To Wall Love". 20 tracks in all! © 1996-2015, Dusty Groove, Inc.
J.P. Robinson is an obscure but acclaimed soul singer who signed with T.K. Productions and released a string of popular singles on Alston, Atco and Blue Candle labels from 1968 to 1974. This compilation features all of his known T.K. Recordings: 20 tracks recorded in Miami and Muscle Shoals with T.K. staff producers Brad Shapiro, Steve Alaimo, Clarence Reid and Willie Clarke. Features informative liner notes by John Ridley and digital mastering by Paul Mooney. (Soul Detective)
How is it that there are still these guys who stop you dead in your tracks from the first moment you hear them; guys who are singing great songs with fine arrangements, one after another, and yet even rabid soul fans have heard at best only a stray track or two. (Record Runner)

EMMYLOU HARRIS – Anthology: The Warner, Reprise Years '01 @320
Rhino's double-disc Anthology concentrates on Emmylou Harris' Reprise recordings, which is a blessing. Once she left Reprise, she started to delve into "experimental," "atmospheric" recordings a bit too heavily, certainly more than her prior recordings would justify, and it almost obscured her purest talents -- that of a singer that carried on the tradition of, say, Patsy Cline, becoming the greatest country singer of her generation. Since her generation was the rock generation, her path crossed multiple times with singers that weren't strictly country, most notably at the beginning of her career, when she sung backing and harmony vocals for the incomparable Gram Parsons. This gave her exposure, and she capitalized upon it by turning in recordings that simultaneously appealed to rock and country artists, finding herself as a tremendous interpretive singer, somebody that perfectly balanced the divide between classic and contemporary. Rhino's double-disc Anthology perfectly captures that balance and if it has any faults, it's that it illustrates her career a little too well, finding that her classicist approach was as modern as it was reverent. So, there are moments here that seem a little too studied to be true, but that's an accurate representation of her career, illustrating how she walked the tightrope between genuine country and a scholarly interpretation of it. This will appeal to both factions, as it captures both sides of her personality equally well. That means it might not be the perfect choice to convert doubters, yet it still winds up representing Harris' career remarkably well, perhaps being the one disc for casual fans.

Gyro, you're right about The Belltowers. Are you sure that's not really the mid-60s Byrds with Roger McGuinn singing and playing guitar?
Hello Ryp, Gyro and all the other cooperators, after some time away I had a hard job searching on the last posts. Found lots of gems and as always I'm so thankfull. I'd like to ask for a request. It's a seminal group in the 80's R&B, garage scene but I find non of their stuff in the net. I guess Senseless or LoFi Larry could have some of their material. I'm talking about the great TELL TALE HEARTS and all the saga: Hoods .... I'm thankfull in advance. Hope you all have a great summer full of sun, music and joy.
@Aitor
I've got a few TTH, they're on another HD so it'll be tomorrow unless someone has it more accessible. It looks like Mr. Eliminator has at least one of their albums up on his site now.
Tanx again!

A big thanks Gyro for all what you shared today.

JohnnyD, you're spot on with the Ricky Skaggs posting.Can't believe it's 15 years since this dropped the first time. Skaggs is a peerless instrumentalist, but he always called Big Mon Mr. Monroe to his face...excellent stuff!
Gyro, thanks for your ongoing campaign to bring undeservedly obscure soul singers to light. It's amazing how the genere still continues to produce.
Johnny G, thanks for the Skaggs. If they allow you out to travel, San Francisco' annual Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival often includes RS as well as many other luminaries every October. The weather's gorgeous at that time in SF and the Golden Gate Park setting is idyllic. But you've got to be okay crowds. And not mind pot smoke. Three days, six stages and all free - thanks to the bequest of a music-loving millionaire.
And a great big thanks.
