CD Reviews

Long needed reissue.
Kevin Fontenot | New Orleans, LA United States | 04/01/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"One of the best country pianists ever, Moon Mullican's recorded legacy has been shoddily reissued. This CD (along with volume one) helps fill the gap by presenting Mullican's King recordings in good sound and with excellent liner notes. Mullican had performed with numerous groups in Texas and Louisiana (including the Modern Mountaineers, Cliff Bruner, and Gov. Jimmie Davis), but these are the solo recordings for which he is remembered. Mullican was equally adept at playing boogie or ballads. Moon's influence is deep and has long been underestimated, he really needs full recognition as a father of rock and roll. Hopefully this reissue series will help fill the need."
