| | Country Gospel Favorites CD
Rebound's Country Gospel Favorites contains nine selections from the Polygram vaults, including tracks recorded for Mercury and Smash. Since it spans several years and styles, it isn't particularly cohesive, but it has enough strong moments -- Roy Acuff's "Hold to God's Unchanging Hand" and "Take My Hand Precious Lord," Tom T. Hall's "Me and Jesus," the Statler Brothers' "The Lord's Prayer," Jerry Lee Lewis' "He Looked Beyond My Fault" and Hank Williams' "Dear Brother" and "House of Gold" -- to make it worthwhile for budget-minded listeners. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Christmas music releases have become a country music tradition, but the result is often generic mushy background instrumentation on the same moldy standards. Guilty of this is Vince Gill, whose Let There Be Peace on Earth is as cliche-ridden as they come. ~ Roch Parisien

| | Burl Ives Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer CD (1995)
Country Gospel Favorites songs
$4.99
The Rankin/Bass animagic film Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer first appeared on December 6, 1964. Since then, it has become the longest-running of all holiday TV specials (with, we hope, no end in sight). It's fitting that the grandfather of all Christmas specials features Burl Ives, still remembered warmly by millions as the voice behind the film's narrator, Sam the Snowman. Although this soundtrack bears his name, Ives appears only on a handful of songs: "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," "A Holly Jolly Christmas," and "Silver and Gold." The remaining vocals are handled by various cast members: "Jingle Jingle Jingle" features Stan Francis as Santa, "We're a Couple of Misfits" is sung by Billie Mae Richards (the voice of Rudolph) and Paul Soles (the voice of Hermie), "There's Always Tomorrow" is immortalized by Janet Orenstein (as Clarice), and a chorus shares "The Most Wonderful Day of the Year." The real musical genius behind the movie is Johnny Marks, a songwriter who had earlier written the song "Rudolph the ...
| | Hank Williams Revealed: The Unreleased Recordings CDs (2009) DGBK
Country Gospel Favorites album
$30.79
1951 was a breakthrough year for Hank Williams. He had a string of moderate country hits already under his belt, but the release that year of his version of an old jazz age novelty tune called "Lovesick Blues" suddenly made him a big star. It also meant his touring schedule increased, but he still found time that year to slip into Nashville and pre-record shows for the Mother's Best Flour Company. These good-natured and intimate performances were cut to acetate discs and then played over the air on Nashville's WSM radio station. Brittle, disposable, and made for only a few plays, these acetates were then shelved and forgotten until they were literally rescued from the trash in the '70s by an alert WSM employee. In all, 72 of these shows survived, containing some 143 songs, and this three-disc set is the second installment in Time Life's CD preservation of this amazing treasure trove. The performances are intimate and relaxed, and Williams tackles an amazingly varied set list, singing old mountain ballads, hymns, cowboy tunes, and delivering recitations of parlor poems and other various ...
| | Dolly Parton Trio CD (1987)
Country Gospel Favorites CD music
$9.35
A classic modern country album, THE TRIO is as pretty as music gets. The ethereal harmony vocals of three of popular music's sweetest swingers, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris and Linda Ronstadt, would be enough--their harmonies couldn't have been closer if they were triplets. But THE TRIO offers something more, gathering songs that not only utilize their natural singing talents but also bring out the emotional timbre of their collective voice.
From the ultra-pretty Phil Spector pop classic "To Know Him Is To Love Him" to the hard-country ...

Country Gospel Favorites album
$27.95
Problem number one is musical: Frankie Armstrong is a British folk singer blessed with a strong, clear, supple voice, and she's well aware of the quality of her instrument. Unfortunately, she seems to have but one trick in her interpretive bag, and that trick is overkill. Every song is delivered at a volume somewhere between mezzoforte and fortissimo, and at an emotional pitch somewhere between seething frustration and barely contained rage. "Nothing Between Us Now" is a harangue aimed petulantly at a faithless lover; James Taylor's "Millworker" is a protest song hammered out with all the subtlety of a picket chant; even the potentially gorgeous "Tam Lin" is beaten soundly about the head ...

Country Gospel Favorites album
$8.05
Tony Rich (or "the Tony Rich Project," as he likes to call himself) hit the jackpot with his debut album, Words, in 1996. It sold a million copies; threw off a million-selling single, "Nobody Knows"; and won the Grammy Award for best R&B album. Then, everything fell apart. The 1998 follow-up, Birdseye, was a flop, and Rich left major-label-affiliated LaFace Records, issuing his next two discs, Resurrected and Pictures, on independent labels to little notice. Hidden Beach Recordings, which is releasing his fifth album, Exist, is another independent, but it has a track record in breaking and reestablishing adult R&B artists. That's a category into which Rich fits. Writing, performing, and producing the music by himself, he has created an album of rhythmic, romantic ballads. The ...
