CD Reviews

Great, obscure early 1950s country music
Joe Sixpack -- Slipcue.com | ...in Middle America | 05/19/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a fun set of early 'Fifties oldies from country songwriter Rod Morris, who is best known for writing "Bimbo," which was a big early hit for crooner Jim Reeves. Morris never did that well as a recording artist, but he sure made some great music! This disc gathers all of his recordings on Capitol Records (from 1950-53) as well as several songs made for smaller indie labels, including the original version of "Bimbo," and a whole bunch of swell tunes about getting drunk and paying for it in one way or another the day after. Fans of old-style honkytonk music will definitely want to check this one out."
