Ersel Hickey Bluebirds Over The Mountain CD (1994) (Import) Germany

Prodigal Son music CDs

$27.19
Contains previously unreleased tracks recorded for Epic and Kapp. Ersel Hickey's "Bluebirds Over the Mountain" is such a well-known oldies hit that it's hard to believe it charted no higher than number 75 in Billboard (it made a much more respectable showing in Cash Box, where it reached the Top 40). Clocking in at less than a minute and a half, it's also one of the shortest hit singles in history. Hickey's sole hit has sparked enough interest in the digital era to inspire a domestic anthology and two imports, all of which substantially overlap. Bluebirds Over the Mountain, a product of Germany's Bear Family Records, is a cross-licensed anthology that rounds up all of Hickey's Epic and Kapp recordings from 1957-1960, including several previously unreleased recordings, a song fragment (the religious "Due Time"), and the slightly slower Canadian version of "Bluebirds Over the Mountain." Unfortunately, Hickey's debut single for the Fine label is not included (it can be found on Hydra's Ersel Hickey anthology, Hangin' Around at Heartbreak Hotel). Hickey's other contribution to music history was posing for a photo that has subsequently become an enduring symbol of rockabilly music, especially in silhouette. Regardless, he wasn't a top-notch rockabilly artist, although he had his moments. The self-penned "Goin' Down That Road," for example, is a well-regarded rockabilly ...

Laurie Performance A Anderson Bright Red CD (1994)

Prodigal Son songs

$11.65

BRIGHT RED (1994) is the outgrowth of STORIES FROM THE NEW BIBLE, a series of tales developed by Laurie Anderson. These STORIES were performed at live concerts ("readings") in the early '90s and were subsequently published in book form before Anderson had developed the studio "song" versions heard on BRIGHT RED. For Anderson, "song" often suggests an exploration of language rather than any traditional sense of "singing." She addresses an array of topics, covering everything from war to pop culture (in Anderson's view, the two are not really that far apart). Anderson is a respected name on New York's avant-garde scene, and she performs here with other key figures-Arto Lindsay, Adrian Belew, Marc ...

Gene Vincent & His Blue Caps CD (1957)

Prodigal Son album

$9.79

Gene Vincent and His Blue Caps, cut in October 1956, only four months after its predecessor, came about under slightly less favorable circumstances than the Bluejean Bop album. Cliff Gallup, whose lead guitar had been so central to the group's original sound, and rhythm guitarist Willie Williams, who was only somewhat less important to their sound, had been gone from the band for nearly two months when producer Ken Nelson decided it was time to cut material for more singles and a second album. Gallup was persuaded to rejoin temporarily for the sessions that yielded this album, and with him he brought not only a hot-sounding instrument but one first-rate original song, "You Better Believe," alongside a few other notable band originals ("Cruisin'," "Hold Me, Hug Me, Rock Me") that are among the best songs Vincent and his band ever recorded. The sound ends up similar to the Bluejean Bop album, with a little more depth in places and Vincent showing more maturity and confidence, which is how he gets away with "Unchained Melody," the most challenging ballad he'd cut up to that time -- Gallup's trilled, mandolin-like playing (which turns up on "I Sure Miss You" as well) also serves to make this one of the more unusual and memorable of the many good versions of this song. Vincent's singing also stands out on his dark, moody, ominous rendition of the Delmore Brothers' "Blues Stay Away From Me." And the band runs circles around virtually every other white rock & roll outfit of the period. Unfortunately, Gene Vincent & His Blue Caps would also be the last time that this version of the band would turn up on record with Vincent -- Gallup soon left again, and in less than three months, every member of the group except drummer Dickie Harrell would be gone. In 1998, Collectables Records reissued this album, paired with Bluejean Bop, on Bluejean Bop/Gene Vincent & His Blue Caps. ~ Bruce Eder Gene Vincent & His Blue Caps had a little more time to prepare their second, self-titled album than they had had for their first, Bluejean Bop! As a result, there were none of the ballad standards that had filled up the track list of that disc, alternating with the rockabilly tunes. Gene Vincent & His Blue Caps rocked more consistently than its predecessor, the only real exception being a cover of the much-recorded 1955 torch song "Unchained Melody." The rest of the time, Vincent and the band rocked out. Guitarist Willie Williams had been replaced by Paul Peek, and guitarist Cliff Gallup, although he had also left, had returned just for this recording, making the LP the final sessions by a near-original version of the Blue Caps. Gallup brought along a couple of songs, "You Told a Fib" and "You Better Believe," while others were contributed by Vincent and his partner, Tex Davis. But the material was less important than the ...
