Claude King 16 Original Classics CD (1999)

Christmas In The Country

$10.69

Liner Note Author: Mark Marymont.
Claude King is remembered for the story song "Wolverton Mountain," which topped the country charts for nine weeks in 1962 and crossed over to the pop Top Ten, but his recording career spanned three decades and 30 country hits. Columbia saw King as a replacement for his friend, the late Johnny Horton, so his early hits like "Big River, Big Man" and "The Comancheros" are similar in production and tone to Horton's historical recordings. "The Burning of Atlanta," the hit most blatantly in the Horton style, caused some controversy by declaring during a time of civil rights agitation that "the South's gonna rise again." King enjoyed only two other Top Ten hits, "Tiger Woman" and "All for the Love of ...

Four Tops Live And In Concert CD (1974)

Christmas In The Country

$4.55

The Four Tops: Levi Stubbs, Lawrence Peyton, Obie Benson, Duke Fakir.
Producers: Steve Barri, Dennis Lambert, Brian Potter.
As live recordings go, Live & In Concert isn't half bad. The Four Tops perform a mixture of past and present hits with a full orchestra aided by a crack sound system. Selections like "Midnight Flower," "Keeper of the Castle," and "Ain't No Woman (Like the One I've Got)" rival the studio recordings, and Levi Stubbs soliloquy on "I Am Your Man" will have you rolling. ~ Andrew Hamilton
The Four Tops were having a career resurgence when this excellent live album was recorded in 1974, which may explain the group's overall ebullience throughout. In any case, the repertoire is nicely split between their Motown '60s classics and their '70s hits, and the recorded sound is great; despite the ...

Hard To Find 45'S On CD: Pop & Country Classics CD (2002)

Christmas In The Country

$13.69

Here's another high quality collection in the best-selling "Hard-To-Find" series, this time covering pop and country crossover hits (file under "oldies"!). 13 of the 21 tracks made the Pop Top 20 and 12 of them hit #1 on country charts, and ll but 5 trac Includes liner notes by Greg Adams.
All tracks have been digitally remastered.
Liner Note Author: Greg Adams .
The Hard to Find 45s on CD series is a very subjective -- and some would say guaranteed to start an argument or fight at your next party with loudmouth music freaks -- batch of compilation recordings that focuses on various aspects of genre-specific music and time periods. This set centers itself on country tunes that became crossover successes from the 1950s through the urban(e) cowboy era in 1982 and pop music that charted by country artists. Some tracks would have been impossible to exclude, such as Lefty Frizzell's number one country chart smash "Saginaw, Michigan," even if it scored a lowly number 85 on the pop chart. Same goes for Leroy Van Dyke's reading of Isaac Hayes' "Walk on By," which scored a number five in pop and didn't chart in the country Top 40, and Ferlin Husky's "Gone," which went to the top of the country list and scored a number four in pop. They are included as evidence of "marginal" crossovers and provided the template by which other recordings would be measured, recorded, and released -- at least in the singles and jukebox markets. But there are some forgotten gems here as well, including the Marvin Rainwater nugget "Gonna Find Me a Bluebird," Ned Miller's awesome floor-burner "From a Jack to a King," and the Bellamy Brothers' deeply philosophical and sensitive ballad "If I Said You Had a Beautiful Body Would You ...

Alan Jackson returned just months after the zeitgeist-defining, blockbuster success of "Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning)," with his holiday album, Let It Be Christmas. Jackson has always been a bit of a traditionalist, but it's still kind of surprising just how traditional this album is, recalling seasonal records from the '50s and '60s instead of the glitzy, lavish productions of the '80s and '90s. ...
