It's Gonna Be Action Packed (6-CD) | Bear Family Records This week, according to BF's site. Sometimes import items are a little late showing up on Amazon.
Was that the series of LPs that had the "porn picture" covers? Of course, the follow-up question is does the book have those covers full size?
Nope, that's Nasty Rockabilly, another Be Sharp series. It's available as a 10 CD set, not sure about the "artwork" being fully intact.
If the CD box of Nasty Rockabilly is censored at all then I can't imagine how filthy the LP box is. Pretty sure it's in tact.
Lefty Frizzell: while not Bear, but kind of fits in this thread. has anybody else got this set? I've had it for a while and put it aside at some point and yet to play it for some unknown reason. for those who may be interested: www.davidfrizzell.com
That got me to reading about David Frizzell. Only being familiar with his 80's hits like "Gonna Hire a Wino", I always assumed he was Lefty's son, not his brother. Turns out David made his recording debut in the same decade as Lefty.
And there is also these wild great vinyl records Sin Alley: https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_pg_...ywords=sin+alley+vinyl&ie=UTF8&qid=1507066956
Is there any information on that Starday set floating around anywhere? Would love to know more about it.
Frustratingly little. I've read there were 350 Starday Custom releases between 1953 and 1960, so that's about 25 CDs right there. I don't know how many more custom pressings they made from 1960 to the service's conclusion in the late 60's. Blog dedicated to chronicling every Starday Custom record: Starday Custom Series
Somewhere i read that BE planned 3 boxes with these on cd.Guess it was Mychael who mentioned that.I hope it is not released all 3 at the same time.
Yes, I personally prefer the original LP track listing, saving you re-programming it. I have the Johnnie Ray and Doris Day box sets. Very good. I also have those by Connie Francis, Petula Clark and Eartha Kitt. All great. The last Doris set is sadly deleted (a rights issue?). Not sure there's any others they did that I really want.
Hi! Just wanted to share that Amazon.de has the Louisiana Hayride box on pre-order for EUR 199.00: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B075K3K9RS/ref=pe_3044161_185740101_TE_item_image If you're buying from outside Europe, that's minus 20% VAT, which is a REAL interesting price for a set of this size! Anybody else excited about this release?
I have a download of this, but have not yet scored a copy of , but I really dig this fella. Tommy Collins. Merle Haggard sings about him in his song 'Leonard'. Another wonderful Bear release, and I'm disappointed I still haven't bought the box, (if money was an endless supply...) Here's one of my favourite songs, plain, yes, simple, yes. Country music, yes!
