BURNETTE DORSEY The Complete Reprise and Motown Recordings Plus... (1962-1965) (Digisleeve, Remastered, Limited Edition)

Popis:

• This overdue double CD by Johnny's brother Dorsey Burnette on Bear Family Records® fills a gap in our extensive Burnette retrospective! • Limited, numbered collector's edition, 1000 copies worldwide! • 20 unreleased tracks on disc or record for the first time! • Between 1962 and 1965, outstanding recordings were made that show a hitherto unknown side of Dorsey: his passion for R'n'R, country and soul music. • The double album provides the complete recordings for Reprise and Motown's sub-label Mel-o-dy. • Carefully remastered recordings. • Extensive and well-researched liner notes with biographical details by Chicago music historian Bill Dahl plus a discography by Nico Feuerbach in the lavishly illustrated booklet.

Dorsey Burnette wore a lot of musical hats during the early years of his prolific career. Ferocious bass-slapping rockabilly with The Rock ‘n Roll Trio, prolific hit songwriter with his brother Johnny for Ricky Nelson, a hitmaker in his own right with the 1960 pop chart-climbers (There Was A) Tall Oak Tree and Hey Little One, and a producer whose assorted assignments included a Little Stevie Wonder session for Tamla. Much of Dorsey’s early heyday has been amply represented in Bear Family’s catalog over the years, but one bountiful period overlooked until now receives a thorough investigation on the new two-CD set ’The Complete Reprise and Motown Recordings plus... (1962-1965).’ Its 45 tracks include everything Burnette released on Frank Sinatra’s Reprise label as well as on Motown’s short-lived Mel-o-dy imprint and scattered singles from the same era for Lama and Imperial. That’s just the lineup on disc one. The second CD boasts 20 previously unheard tracks expanding Dorsey’s catalog even further, ranging from intriguing originals that he wrote with Wrecking Crew bassist Joe Osborn to distinctive renditions of Gotta Travel On and Honey Come Back. Dorsey’s deep-toned pipes were never less than satisfying; this collection restores some of his rarest sides to print at last!
