CD Reviews

"This Old Hat" by Ed Bruce
Wanda Sweat | 11/30/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Vintage Ed Bruce--I'm a long-time fan of the man & his music. The title song is a good one, that I hadn't heard. "One" is one of the sweetest love songs I've ever heard, "Truth is I'm a Liar" is clever & "My Baby Don't Need No Polish to Shine" is light-hearted & serious @ the same time. If you're a fan, it's all good--I've never disliked any of his songs."
Listening pleasure

"A pleasure to sit back, relax, for a few moments forget woes of the world and just enjoy the music and singing. Smooth as silk, soft as morning mist are but two proper adjectives to describe this man's singing. He views himself primarily as a song writer, but only he can sing his songs with the same intense emotion he put into their writing."
Quite a discovery!

"Since the USA Armed Forces withdrew their radio stations from Europe

we lost the possibility to listen to Country Music. That's why we

also lost track on many artists we knew then. One example is Ed Bruce

a rockabilly singer who was popular in the late 50's and a SUN artist

together with all the great legends like Elvis, Jerry Lee, Roy Orbison,

Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins etc. He was nicknamed "Jerry Lee Lewis' brother"

He then suddenly "disappeared" until I saw him on a DVD Country Family

Show from Nasville; an old grey man with a grey mustache was announced

by Bill Anderson, the host, as Ed Bruce. I couln't believe it! After 43

years this rockabilly star from the heydays of Rock & Roll sat there

and sang a wonderful country song called "My first taste of Texas".

I immediately consulted all Billboard books and found out that he

turned to country in 1967 and had built up quite a carreer until 1987.

The next step was to look at Amazon's music chapter and there were

several CD's available being this one the chosen one because of the

previous mentioned "My first taste of Texas". Many of the rest of the

songs are great as well. His beautiful deep baritone voice is quite

different from other songs I have from the 50's. A wonderful CD!"
