What Are You Listening To? - Music Head - 21-10-2012
from my library (vinyl)
![[Image: 516ZDn5Q9uL._SL500_AA300_.jpg]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/516ZDn5Q9uL._SL500_AA300_.jpg)
Jerry Lee has to hold the record for number of shout outs to himself in his songs, either as his name or as The Killer, which he named himself. Is this where rappers got that from? Just a thought. Debuting in the 50's Jerry had already peaked long ago, but he was still putting them out on a regular basis. This one is a good mix of his straight country and his rock-a-billy boogie woogie side. You know which I prefer. Three tracks I love and three I do not like. Two singles charted, with the title cut coming in at #11, and Honky Tonk Stuff at #28, both on the country side. The album could only manage a #32. Jerry had an album in 2010, making him one of the few in the 50 years in the business club. An elite group that you have to give credit to. The Killer rocks on.
I LIKE THIS ALBUM

DOLLY PARTON "the essential dolly parton" cd,2005.
2cd set containing all of Dolly's most well known tracks, thirty seven in all. pretty much done in release order.
the first disc(this one below) chronicles her first decade from 67-77...
only one track on here i dont like(well, i doubt anyone would like it), its called Joshua, its retty much a remake of Johnny Cash's "boy named sue" allbeit with different lyrics, real cringeworthy stuff IMO.
this disc also contains my alltime favourite Dolly track, Coat Of Many Colours.
also included here is the original version of "i will always love you", i guess made more famous by Whitney Houston...yep, Whitney's is far superior to Dolly's original.
strange to note that the song was originally offered to Elvis Presley but Big Time Crook manager Tom Parker wanted Dolly to signover half the writing credits to him in order to allow Elvis to sing it....Dolly's response was "my mind and heart have gone into this song,you aint takin' what rightfully belongs to me"...thus, Elvis never got to record this one thanks to Parker!
all up, up there with the best country collections by any country singer ever IMO....disc two to follow tomorrow.

DOLLY PARTON "the essential dolly parton"
disc two....
this one covers the years 1978 thru 2001...
was actually surprised this one came out with almost the same score as the earlier so-called 'classic dolly' material, best track on here for me is the duet with Kenny Rogers that was written by the Brothers Gibb "islands in the stream", was totally surprised that i liked "9 to 5"...used to cringe whenever i heard that one.
still, out of thirty seven tracks all-up on the two discs, there are only three that i dont like seventeen i love and eighteen that i like...very good collection IMO
I LIKE THIS ALBUM

What Are You Listening To? - CRAZY-HORSE - 25-10-2012

What Are You Listening To? - SteveO - 26-10-2012
Dolly's a true legend in my books! Brilliant songwriter (Jolene, etc.), singer and musician!!!!! I enjoyed Nine to Five , both the song and movie!

JERRY JEFF WALKER - VIVA TERLINGUA ! (LIVE ALBUM 1973)
![[Image: 61TFTebEuLL._SL500_AA300_.jpg]](http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61TFTebEuLL._SL500_AA300_.jpg)
This is definitely in my TOP 5 of favorite albums!!!!! Jerry Jefff Walker, the composer of Mr. Bojangles, among other great songs! Mr. Bojangles isn't on this set recorded live in the legendary town of Luckenbach, Texas with The Lost Gonzo Band! It doesn't have to be as the tracks below are absolutely brilliant! This is my kind of country!...enjoy!
