| REX ALLEN |
Cowgirlboy 5056 |
Yodelin' Crazy |
● LP $13.98 |
Arizona singer Rex Allen has been called the "last of
the singing cowboys" and was certainly one of the best. The 16 tracks
here are from mid 40s radio transcriptions prior to his commercial
recording career. Although some of his later recordings were very pop
oriented this is staright western music with expressive vocals (and
occasional yodelling) by Rex and accompaniments on guitar, fiddle,
accordion & steel guitar plus vocal harmonies. Songs include My Old
Adobe Shack/ Strawberry Roan/ Timber Winds/ Cowpunchers Blues, etc.
Nice! (FS)

| TEX BAYNES &
THE HAYSEEDS |
Cattle 127 |
Australian Hillbilly Music |
● LP $13.98 |
Late 40's to early 50's recordings with accordion, fiddle,
steel guitar backing etc. Although heavily influenced by the US C&W
scene, Australia had a lot of great C&W artists at that time already.
One of them was Tex Banes with his Hayseeds, who was once very popular
through his famous radio show. It seems he never cared signing up with a
record company, so all what was available to use for this LP was a lot of
acetates he made for his personal use. He was also popular for his
hootenanny which is occasionally audible.
TEX BAYNES & THE HAYSEEDS: A Sprig of Golden Wattle/ Away Far down in
the Hollow/ Cowboy's Home in Heaven/ Don't Make Me Go to Bed and I'll Be
Good/ Hayseed Yodel/ Home Sweet Home in the Rockies/ I'm Goin' Back to
Whur I Come From/ Let's Be Sweetheart's Again/ Riders in the Sky./ Rock Me
to Sleep in My Saddle/ Rose of the Rio/ That's My Bushland Home/ There's a
Ranch in the Rockies/ Time Changes Everything/ When It's Night Time in
Nevada/ over the Santa Fe Trail

| THE BLUE SEAL PALS |
Cattle 102 |
On Sun-Up Serenade |
● LP $13.98 |
The Blue Seal Pals were an interesting 40s group from
Alabama which included Bill Cantrell, Dexter Johnson, Edgar Clayton, Buddy
Bain & Quinton Claunch. The group was named after Blue Seal Flour
which sponsored the various radio shows the band was on. Most of the band
members later went on to solo careers. This album presents two complete
radio shows from 1947 and '48 broadcast over WSM in Nashville and includes
a mixture of songs and tunes - mostly traditional or covers of hits of the
day. The performances are quite good and considering the age and rarity of
these transcriptions the sound is quite good. (FS)
THE BLUE SEAL PALS: Boll Weevil/ Darling Think of What You've Done/ Give
Me the Roses While I Live/ I Tickled Her under the Chin/ Ida Red/ In My
Adobe Hacienda/ In the Sweet Bye and Bye/ Johnson's Reel (Inst.)/ Memphis

| VIN BRUCE |
Cowgirlboy 5032 |
Country Songs From Louisiana |
● LP $13.98 |
Vin Bruce is one of the most successful artists from Cajun
country in melding the Cajun sound with the honky tonk sound of the
fifties into something recognizably Cajun. These recordings, however,
retain little of the charm and flavor of his Cajun roots. They are fairly
obvious attempts to make commercially mainstream country recordings, and
judged as that are quite nice. The instrumentation is pure Hank Williams,
and Vin's vocals owe a lot to Carl Smith, who was enormously successful at
the time these recordings were presumably made. (RP)
VIN BRUCE: Are You Forgetting?/ Dans La Louisianne/ Fille De La Ville/
Goodbye to a Sweetheart (Hello to a Friend)/ Here Is the Bottle./ I Tried/
I Trusted You/ I'll Stay Single/ I'm Gonna Steal My Baby Back/ Knockin' On
The Door/ My Mama Said/ Over an Ocean of Golden Dreams/ Sweet Love/ Too

|
| STEW CLAYTON |
Cattle 74 |
The Canadian Country Balladeer |
● LP $13.98 |
Pleasant album of recordings from 1970 by this Canadian
singer and songwriter - Clayton's vocal is accompanied by guitar, mandolin
and a rather over-prominent bass on a selection of mostly original songs
about the wide open plains, outlaws, etc - a little bit of the flavor of
Wilf Carter is present in the style - considering how recent the
recordings are the sound quality is not too good (FS)
STEW CLAYTON: Down In The Little Green Valley/ Glory Trail./ Hillbilly
Romance/ Memories of My Old Prairie Home/ My Married Life on the Plains/
Round-up Blues/ Strawberry Roan/ The Fate of Old Brimstone the Outlaw/ The
Threshermen 's Reunion/ The Wheat Farmer's Lament/ The Zebra Dun/ the Barn

| BRONCO BUCK CODY |
Binge 1011 |
And His Brazos Valley Ranch Hands |
● LP $13.98 |
12 songs recorded in 1959 and issued on the obscure Wizard
label in 1959 by Texas musical enterepeneur Col. Buster Doss. Doss was a
singer, songwriter, artists manager and producer. These recordings feature
his band and friends including Johnny Gimble/ guitar & mandolin, Buddy
King/ lead guitar, Glen Paul/ steel guitar and others. Dos sings 3 of the
songs under his alter ego of Bronco Buck Cody and the remaining vocals are
by Kay Arnold, Larry Butler, Smilin' Jerry Jericho, Jimmy Jay and The
Pickard Brothers. The instrumental work is nice with a western swing feel
- unfortunately the vocals are uniformly awful! (FS)
BRONCO BUCK CODY: Do You Remember? (Voc. Smilin' Jerry Jericho)/ Fiddling
Around (Voc. Johnny Gimble)/ Heads You Win (Tails I Lose) (Voc. Bronco
Buck Cody)/ I Sleep No More (Voc. Smilin' Jerry Jericho)/ I'm Not Wanted

| RILEY CRABTREE |
Cowgirlboy 5116 |
Love Songs Of The Hills |
● LP $13.98 |
The recordings on this LP go back until the late 1940s and
were basically recorded at Jim Beck's Studio in Dallas, probably with
similar personnel as used for the Lefty Frizzell sessions back then. It's
genuine country music with plenty of fiddle and steel guitar
accompaniment. Riley's voice sounds like a blend of T Texas Tyler and
Lefty Frizzell.
RILEY CRABTREE: A Handful of Nickels/ Always Together (Never Apart)/ Gun
Fightin' Marshal./ I Always Play a Losing Hand/ I Live with Memories (That
Bless and Burn)/ I Stood and Watched Your Love Grow Cold/ If I Had Someone

|
| TED DAFFAN &
HIS TEXANS |
Cowgirlboy 5051 |
Born To Lose |
● LP $13.98 |
Ted Daffan and his Texans are widely viewed as a Western
swing band as they worked extensively in both Texas and on the West Coast
during World War II. However, musically, they couldn't hold a candle to
Bob Wills, Spade Cooley or anyone else. None of the band's soloists were
strong instrumentalists or great singers. The band served mainly as a
vehicle for Daffan's songs, among the definitive Texas honky-tonk compositions. This 16-selection LP assembles some of his classic 1940's
recordings including "Born to Lose," a country standard recorded
by numerous pop singers. The original version, included Here, featured a
vocal by fiddler Leon Seago. Most of the other numbers were ballads as
well. Among them were "Baby, You Can't Get Me Down," "Shut
That Gate," "Poor Little Bar Fly," "Time Won't Heal My
Broken Heart," "Beyond The Shadow Of A Doubt" and "You
Better Change Your Ways," all sung by Daffan. Ted also performs the
odd recitation "Bluest Blues," with a vocal that comes off like
a cross between Phil Harris and Boris Karloff! (RK)
TED DAFFAN: Baby You Can't Get Me Down/ Beyond the Shadow of a Doubt/
Bluest Blues/ Born to Lose/ Broken Vows/ Go On-go On/ Just Born That Way/
Look Who's Talkin'/ No Letter Today/ Poor Little Bar Fly/ Shut That Gate/
Time Won't Heal My Broken Heart/ Trouble Keeps Hangin''Round My Door/ Two
of a Kind/ You Better Change Your Ways/ You're Breaking My Heart.

| BOB & CINDY DEAN |
Cattle 87 |
The Sweethearts Of The Air |
● LP $13.98 |
Intresting album of old time country singing and playing
featuring Virginia singer Bob Dean on his own or in the company of his
wife Cindy. The early tracks from '46 and '47 feature Bob by himself or
duetting with Hank Dean (who also played fiddle on some cuts) accompanied
by fine electric guitarist Leon Baxter. The other tracks from the 50s and
early 60s feature Cindy who, unfortunately, is a rather terrible singer
and tends to ruin what would otherwise be rather nice duets. The
instrumental work on these tracks is generally very good - some have a bit
of a bluegrass flavor. (FS)
BOB & CINDY DEAN: Back to Old Smoky Mountain/ Destination Moon/ Fox
Chase./ Gone for Another/ I'll Take Her from the Valley/ I'm Knocking at
the Door (of Your Heart)/ I'm Shedding Tears over You/ Long Time Gone/

Favorite Songs From The Tennessee Ernie Show |
● LP $13.98 |
16 tracks from 1954 Tennessee Ernie Ford radio shows by Lou
Dinning of The Dinning Sisters. Accompanied by stellar musicians like
Speedy West, Billy Strange, Harold Hensley and others she performs a
selection of country and pop songs including Condemned Without Trial/
Can't Help Lovin' That Man Of Mine/ I'm Getting Sentimantal Over You/ I
Went To Your Wedding/ I Cried For You/ I Really Don't Want To Know/ Am I
In Love?/Keep It A Secret, etc. Pleasant enough material though Lou is
obviously more of a pop singer than a country singer. (FS)

of Mine/ Condemned Without Trial/ I Cried for You/ I Don't Hurt Anymore/ I
Really Don't Want to Know/ I Went to Your Wedding/ I'd Rather Die Young/

I'm Just A Country Boy |
● LP $13.98 |
Most of you who remember Mark Dinning might only remember
his smash hit of "Teen Angel" which only entered the pop and not
the country charts. Mark in the late 50's was as much "country"
as Sheb Wooley or Marty Robbins when they all recorded in the Nashville
sound of that time. If you love that style with the excellent voice of the
late Mark Dinning then you won't be disappointed with this release. Not
the Anita Kerr Singers but the magnificent voices of Dolores Dinning &
Millie Kirkham were hired for an attractive backing.
MARK DINNING: A Life of Love/ I Lost/ I'm Just a Country Boy/ Little
Angel/ Lost Highway/ Ramblin' Man/ Teen Angel./ The 12th of Never/ The
Black-eyed Gypsy/ The Roving Gambler/ The Streets of Laredo/ Too Young to
Die/ You Thrill Me
