The York Brothers "The York Brothers' Best" Detroit in the 40's & 50's Vol. 1 (Collector CD)

First in a series of four discs to reissue recordings from the poorly documented Detroit scene. This features a selection of sides by the fine and bluesy York Brothers including their original recording from 1939 of the classic Hamtramck Mama. Most of the early sides are from obscure Detroit labels like Universal, Hot Wax and Mellow. (Roots & Rhythm)Raspy, rattling hardcore hillbilly music from the wartime and postwar era (1939-'53, roughly), from a Brother duo transplanted from the Kentucky hills up into the Great Lakes region. This is urbanized hick music, with strong doses of blues and jazz standars creeping into the mix, classic hillbilly boogie and bop from the years when the "new" country sound was still up for grabs. These guys had a rough, thoroughly authentic sound -- not polished or slick like the Nashville scene was becoming, and they recorded mainly on tiny independent labels like Mellow and Universal (uh, no, not the same Universal that swallowed up MCA in the 1990s...), although they also did some sessions for Decca which also appear on here. This is rare material that must have taken years of super-collector nerd adventures to gather together, and fills a nice gap in the country music saga. If you like your country crude and enthusiastic, then this is a mighty fine disc for you to check out. (DJ Joe Sixpack, The Hillbilly Monthly)
