CLAUDINE LONGET - THE VERY BEST OF
Varèse Sarabande Records 2000 @320

http://www11.zippyshare.com/v/0Qtf3zxO/file.html

Featuring 16 tracks and drawing from all six of her albums for A&M and Barnaby, The Very
Best of Claudine Longet is the definitive introduction to the French chanteuse's smooth,
haunting easy-listening pop. All of her biggest hits, including "Hello, Hello," "Here,
There, and Everywhere," and "Small Talk" (a duet with then-husband Andy Williams) are here,
as well as four tracks from her long-unreleased sixth album Sugar Me; some songs have never
even appeared on CD before. Overall, a very well executed anthology. -- Allmusic

I'm posting this record for all us old guys who wish we still could but have given up,
knowing that we no longer can. I've always loved Claudine Longet's tiny, breathy, and sexy
French accented English and even in my early 20s I used to trade winks with other overly
hormoned young men whenever we heard her on the radio or on TV. I'm not ashamed to say that
I enjoy her records and also those of her one time husband, Andy Williams. Even a
conviction for misdemeanor negligent homicide in 1977 can't stop the little pings and pangs
I feel inside each time I hear her voice.
I've included two bonus tracks not found on the CD because... well, because I like them. -- JohnnyDiego

1. Hello, Hello
2. We've Only Just Begun
3. God Only Knows
4. Here, There And Everywhere
5. Ain't No Mountain High Enough
6. You Don't Have To Be A Baby To Cry

This collection features the first ten studio albums Waylon Jennings recorded for RCA after gaining creative control with his own sessions and recordings. The latter three make their first North American digital appearance here. The sound on this set is audibly better than on the previous CD versions. Altogether a great collection of music.

BONUS 2 OF 4

CHARLIE DANIELS - Charlie Daniels '70 @320

When Charlie Daniels released his eponymous debut in 1970, Southern rock was in its nascent stages. It had been a year since the Allman Brothers Band released their debut and Lynyrd Skynyrd wouldn't unleash its first record for another three years, so the genre was in the process of being born, and Charlie Daniels' debut plays a pivotal role in the genre -- not so much because it was directly influential, but because it points the way to how the genre could and would sound, and how country music could retain its hillbilly spirit and rock like a mother. Where the Allmans were firmly grounded in the blues, especially on the first two records, Daniels was a redneck from the start, and all ten songs on his debut were country at their foundation, even if some of it is country via the Band, as Rich Kienzle points out in his brief liner notes to Koch's 2001 reissue of the album. The Band connections derive from Daniels' time as a session musician for Columbia in Nashville, where he played on many country-rock albums, including Dylan's Nashville Skyline, but there's a heavy dose of hard rock, often via the Allmans' extended jams, on this record. Daniels simply wails on his guitar here, most notably on the six-minute closer "Thirty Nine Miles from Mobile," but, apart from the ballads, he doesn't miss a chance to solo. The heavy guitars give Charlie Daniels a real rock feel, and that vibe is continued through the loose rhythm section and a strong dose of counterculture humor, heard strongest on "The Pope and the Dope." That song also shows signs of Daniels' redneck sensibilities, which also surface in unpredictable ways throughout this wild, woolly album. He makes crude jokes, celebrates the South (particularly his home, "Georgia"), spits out bluesy leads, exaggerates his vocals, croons sweetly, and steals women. He's a redneck rebel, not fitting into either the country or the rock & roll of 1970 with this record, but, in retrospect, he sounds like a visionary, pointing the way to the future when southern rockers saw no dividing lines between rock, country, and blues, and only saw it all as sons of the south. That's what he achieves with Charlie Daniels -- a unique Southern sound that's quintessentially American, sounding at once new and timeless. Once he formed the Charlie Daniels Band, he became a star and with Fire on the Mountain, he had another classic, but he would never sound as wild, unpredictable, or as much like a maverick as he does on this superb album. (Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Allmusic)

For the life of me I can't find the Claudine Longet 45 I have of Randy Newman's "Snow" backed with the Margo Guyryan (sp) b-side but although I wasn't a big fan of the music there was something about it that ummmm "inspired" a 14 year old kid…. Certainly a looker but not one to ski with, eh Johnny?

JohnnyDiego said...

Thrilling news for all!!
I've just discovered three new Claudine Longet songs to add to the 18 I posted this morning. Including "Snow" especially for kevinpat. Never ski with Claudine but listen and be titillated. Man oh Man!

Thanks you Gyro for feeding the Redneck in me with Charlie Daniels. After feasting on all the great soul (thanks Jillem and Northern madman) it was nice to throw back my head and howl at the moon with some Dixie music.

Thank you to all the share. I have learned and been exposed to so much from all the knowledgeable posters here. I use to think I knew music and artist till I found this site and am now very humble but am loving it.

I love the reviews and comments and yes, Johnny Diego's life stories. As an old guy myself I wish I could remember half of my life like he does. AS a warning for you young guys out there - Up in smoke and down in drink I guess.

All the best and Thanks eveyone - Great Site - I look here every day.
