Synopsis

Album Description
Starting his career at Sun Records in 1958 a few years after Elvis had left for RCA, Rich released many recordings throughout the next decade and a half but didn?t have any real chart success until the early ?70s. These two albums, released in ?74 and ?75, prove that Rich was still at the top of his game, releasing country albums that easily crossed over into pop territory and beyond. His material was far more superior and successful, yet tread similar ground, to what Elvis was recording at the time. The Silver Fox features ?Behind Closed Doors?, which was Charlie?s biggest hit. Both titles are currently unavailable in the U.S., which makes this a must have for fans of Charlie Rich and country music in general. Edsel. 2005.
 

CD Reviews

Good outweighs the bad
Mr. C. A. Rollings | UK | 04/10/2006
(4 out of 5 stars)

"The first half of this programme is Charlie's 1975 "Silver Fox" album, which gives us some idea of what a Charlie Rich concert would be like - basically, Charlie telling the story of his years of struggling for recognition followed by "overnight success", interspersed with new versions of some of his Sun classics and his Epic hit "Behind Closed Doors", followed by new and recent recordings. If you can get past the narration, which is excruciating, the songs are absolutely blinding - there is not a weak track on the entire album, and his new recordings of "Don't Put No Headstone On My Grave" and "Break-Up" are sublime.



The same cannot be said of the second half, "Every Time You Touch Me" (1976), which unfortunately has too many sugary tracks giving us a foretaste of the musical direction he would take from then on - frankly, a complete lack of engagement and mostly worthless material. However, this album is redeemed by brilliant versions of "Since I fell for You", "Midnight Blues" (terrific!) and "Pass On By", plus the bitter-sweet "Rendezvous". If only he had kept it up!"
Finally the talented&awesome Silverfox album on CD !!!
