Stewart John - Old Forgotten Altars: The 1960s Demos (CD)
€18,00Quick ViewIncludes demos of songs recorded by The Kingston Trio and for Stewart’s classic California Bloodlines album. •
First known recording of “July, You’re A Woman.” • Includes three duets with Buffy Ford Stewart. In a career spanning more than four decades, John Stewart swiftly progressed from his beginnings in a southern California garage band, through folk groups The Cumberland Three and The Kingston Trio, to a successful solo career.
He contributed well over 40 albums and more than 600 songs to our musical universe. His song catalog is not only staggering in volume, but it’s also loaded with classic compositions. Most will know Stewart’s songwriting from “Daydream Believer” by The Monkees (and Anne Murray) or his own Lindsey Buckingham-produced, “Gold,” a #5 hit in 1979, but just as impressive are “Runaway Train” from Rosanne Cash’s 1987 King’s Record Shop album, “Sweet Dreams Will Come” on Nanci Griffith’s Little Love Affairs or “Mother Country” from Stewart’s own 1969 California Bloodlines album which was used to usher the Apollo 11 spacecraft safely back to Earth after its historic journey.
Omnivore is thrilled to present Old Forgotten Altars: The 1960s Demos. Four tunes found here wound up on The Kingston Trio’s Children Of The Morning album released in 1966 with one of them, “The Spinnin’ Of The World,” getting a second airing on 1979s hit album, Bombs Away Dream Babies which yielded the aforementionaed charting single, “Gold,” with two other songs, “Midnight Wind” and “Lost Her In The Sun” also making the Top 40. Three duets with Buffy Ford Stewart foreshadow Signals Through The Glass album which the singing partners, and later husband and wife team, would release on Capitol Records in 1968. This collection also features five tracks that would form nearly half of Stewart’s classic California Bloodlines album released in 1969. Of particular note, “July, You’re A Woman” makes its first recorded appearance here alongside demos for “Mother Country” and “The Pirates Of Stone County Road.” In 2001, Stewart was honored by the World Folk Music Association with a Lifetime Achievement Award and continued to perform live until nearly 2008. We honor his life’s work and legacy with this peek behind the curtain into his songwriting process while he was making his way from The Kingston Trio to his solo career.

Owens Buck - Country Singer’s Prayer (CD)
€18,00Quick ViewOmnivore Recordings, in conjunction with the Buck Owens Estate, is proud to present Country Singer’s Prayer-Buck Owens final Capitol album from 1975 that has remained unreleased until now.
By late 1975, Buck’s unequaled success at Capitol records was finally winding down. His singles were no longer topping the charts, and after the death of Don Rich the year before, Buck was starting to lose the fire that drove him through an unprecedented run of groundbreaking hits in the ’60s and early ’70s. His contract with Capitol was due to expire at the end of the year, and he and The Buckaroos readied one final album for them in November 1975. This album is finally seeing the light of day, taken from the original LP master tapes, in what was the intended sequence. Also included are the b-sides to Buck’s final two singles from the unissued album.

Edwards "Honeyboy" David - I`m Gonna Tell You Something That I Know – Live At The G Spot CD+DVD (CD)
€22,00Quick ViewBlues Legend’s final recorded show on CD/DVD combo David “Honeyboy” Edwards was the last of the great Mississippi Delta bluesmen. Born is Shaw, Mississippi, on June 28, 1915, his life was intertwined with almost every blues legend including Robert Johnson, Sonny Boy Williamson, Sunnlyand Slim, Howlin’ Wolf, Muddy Waters, and many more. In early 2010, Honeyboy was awarded the GrammyLifetime Achievement Award, and later that year returned to Los Angeles to perform at the G Spot, nimbly accompanied by Jeff Dale & The South Woodlawners and his long-time friend and manager, Michael Frank. Even at 95 years old, Honeyboy was still singing and playing like a man of less than half that age. That show turned out to be the last time Honeyboy was filmed and recorded. The performance is now available to be seen and heard on I’m Gonna Tell You Somethin’ That I Know – a CD/DVD combo documenting that historic appearance.
The shows’ 9 songs (both originals and classics) are contained on both formats, and the CD contains a bonus version of “That’s Alright.” The DVD contains “Honeyboy Tells You Something That He Knows” – over 20 minutes of Edwards giving advice to musicians and telling stories of his life, including vividly recalling the night Robert Johnson died, tales of Charlie Patton, Big Walter Horton, and others, and much more. Honeyboy lived strong into his 96th year, and was part of many seminal moments in blues history. I’m Gonna Tell You Somethin’ I Know captures the timeless, evocative power of Honeyboy, documents his warmth and humor, and shows his palpable connection to Jeff Dale, one of his “sons of the blues.

Rich Don And The Buckaroos - The Guitar Pickin’ Man (CD)
€20,00Quick ViewBUCK OWENS’ RIGHT HAND MAN WORKIN’ THOSE SIX STRINGS!
There are many reasons Buck Owens and his Buckaroos were the hottest band in the world in the 1960s and 1970s, but one is certainly the work of multi-instrumentalist Don Rich. As evidenced on the 2013 reissue of That Fiddlin’ Man, Don certainly knew his way around 4 strings, but his guitar work was his calling card. Guitar Pickin’ Man showcases Rich’s skill and innovative playing by collecting 17 tracks from 10 releases from Buck and The Buckaroos, and adding the previously unissued title track recorded for and during their time on the television classic, Hee Haw. Not just a perfect primer for the uninitiated, but also a fantastic aural journey for fans—Guitar Pickin’ Man features notes from Don’s sons Vance and Vic Ulrich as well as photos from their personal family collection. Experience the work of Buck Owens’ band-leader, friend, and musical trailblazer, Don Rich—the Guitar Pickin’ Man!

Various - Beale Street Saturday Night (CD)
€18,00Quick ViewBeale Street Saturday Night is much more than a music recording. It is an audio documentary which allows us to travel back in time and hear the story of Beale Street and the blues from people who actually lived the history. Recorded in 1976 and first released in 1978, the project was curated by James Luther Dickenson and was a fundraiser to help save the historic Orpheum Theatre. Beale Street was in serious danger of disappearing due to urban redevelopment. Thank goodness that did not happen. And with this recording, we get to hear stsinger-songwriterories and songs that might otherwise be lost. Participants include Sid Selvidge, Sleepy John Estes, Furry Lewis and Teeny Hodges along with Dickenson himself and his band Mud Boy& The Neutrons.
This is the first re-release of the classic album, curated by Luther Dickenson and the Dickenson family. It is full of authentic music and fascinating tales and belongs in the library of every blues lover or music historian.

NRBQ - High Noon: A 50-year Retrospective 5CD Boxset (CD)
€80,00Quick ViewThe first-ever career-spanning boxed set! Produced and compiled to celebrate 50 years of the New Rhythm and Blues Quartet-NRBQ! Founded in 1966 in Shively, Kentucky, NRBQ has given their dedicated fan base 50 years of surprises and exceptional live shows. No style of music is safe around NRBQ as their repertoire consists of choice, wideranging covers (their first Columbia album for example, found them covering Eddie Cochran, Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee, and Sun Ra) to their own compositions, many, also covered by other artists (Bonnie Raitt, Dave Edmunds, She And Him, Steve Earle, Los Lobos). Playing all kinds of music made them hard to peg across the years, but it made them anything but boring. Their live shows are legendary and are made up spontaneously on the spot with no set list. They can, in a heartbeat, swing from one of their own hits (”Me And The Boys,” ”RC Cola And A Moon Pie,” ”Howard Johnson’s Got His Ho-Jo Workin’,” ”Ridin’ In My Car”) to a perfectly curated cover, to a ”magic box” request from the audience.
They served as the unofficial house band for The Simpsons during Seasons 10-12 and count among their fans Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, The Replacements, Keith Richards, Wilco, and Elvis Costello among legions of others! With more than 30 albums recorded across 50 years they, have proven themselves to be peerless as musicians, songwriters and performers.
So to celebrate 50 years of NRBQ, Omnivore Recordings is proud to present High Noon: A 50-Year Retrospective consisting of five CDs of hits, rarities, concert staples, covers and previously unissued gems alongside liner notes and previously unseen photos. After 50 years of brilliant, unpredictable, joyfully exciting musical explorations, on stage and in the studio, it’s time to celebrate NRBQ!

Hot on the heels of the collectable 10′ vinyl Record Store Day EP Omnivore Recordings is proud to present The Garden Spot Programs, 1950, featuring 24 performances, unheard for 64 years, from the one and only Hank Williams!

From hits to standards to songs rarely (if ever) performed, this is pure Hank Williams, including playful, between song banter. Fully restored to incredible quality, The Garden Spot Programs, 1950 is more like being in the studio when they were recorded than actually listening to them on the radio!
The CD packaging contains rare photos from the collection of set co-producer and Williams biographer, Colin Escott, as well as new liners.
Any music from Hank Williams is worth celebrating. Discovering material that has been unheard for generations is monumental.

Old 97`s & Waylon Jennings - Same (Digipak) (Käytetty CD)
€15,00Quick ViewEditorial Reviews:Imagine if Waylon Jennings came to see your band. Imagine if Waylon Jennings liked your band. Liked them enough to talk you up in press like The Austin Chronicle. Imagine your A&R guy telling you to write Waylon to thank him and see if he wanted to record some music with you.Imagine if Waylon said yes.Waylon Jennings attended an Old 97’s gig in 1996, and later that year joined Ken Bethea, Murry Hammond, Rhett Miller and Philip Peeples in a studio in Nashville to cut two tracks. The youthful energy of Old 97’s with the classic delivery of Waylon Jennings. Sadly, Waylon passed away and these recordings some of Jennings’ last never saw the light of day.Until now.Omnivore Recordings is proud to announce the first ever release of those two songs, ’Iron Road and The Other Shoe.’ ’Iron Road’ would eventually arrive as a live version on 2005’s Alive & Wired along with ’The Other Shoe’ (which first appeared on Old 97’s second album, 1995’s Wreck Your Life.) To make it even more special, we’re adding two more previously unissued demos: ’Visiting Hours’ (a live version appeared on 2011’s The Grand Theater Vol. 2) and ’Fireflies’ (re-recorded by Rhett Miller for his acclaimed 2006 solo album The Believer.)

Rich Don - That Fiddlin Man (CD)
€18,00Quick ViewBest known as Buck Owens’ guitarist, Don Rich was also an incredible fiddle player. And, while Orange Blossom Special was a live staple at a Buckaroos show, Don’s fiddle carried through to many Buck Owens studio releases, too. In 1971, 10 tracks were compiled from a number of Buck Owens & The Buckaroos albums and released as That Fiddlin’ Man. The album was an instant hit with fans.Out of print for decades, Omnivore Recordings is proud to reissue That Fiddlin’ Man for the first time ever on compact disc. To make the release even more special, we’ve added ten additional instrumental tracks from the Buck Owens catalog that showcase The Buckaroos, Don Rich and his fiddle. That’s 20 tracks of prime Buckaroos taken from 13 different albums recorded from 1963 to 1970.A full-color booklet featuring new photos, liner notes from Don Rich’s family and detailed information outlining the sources of the CD’s 20 tracks, That Fiddlin’ Man is an essential piece of the Buckaroo puzzle, and a must have for fans of Buck Owens and country instrumentals.

Buckaroos - Plays Buck & Merle (CD)
€18,00Quick ViewWhen a young Merle Haggard played in Buck Owens band, he suggested the name Buckaroos for the combo. While Merle s tenure in the band was shortlived, he did pretty well for himself afterward. And The Buckaroos name not only stuck, but the band became almost as notable as their leader. Their playing became as noticeable as Buck s distinct songwriting and delivery.So, it was only natural that The Buckaroos first LP would be a tribute to their leader. The Buck Owens Songbook was released in 1965 and gave fans a chance to sing along with their favorite Buck hits with The Buckaroos as their backing group lyrics provided. Six years and 10 albums later saw the band pay tribute on their last LP to the man who named them. The Songs Of Merle Haggard appeared in 1971, and featured The Buckaroos instrumental take on classics like Mama Tried and Okie From Muskogee. Sadly, that LP didn t come with a lyric booklet like its predecessor.It seems natural that these two releases should be joined together on one compact disc paying tribute to the leading pioneers of the Bakersfield Sound. The Buckaroos Play Buck & Merle features all 22 songs from both original LPs. And, this time, in addition to the words to the Buck songs, we re providing the lyrics to the Merle tracks, too! Add in original artwork, rarely seen photos, plus reminiscences from Buckaroos Willie Cantu, Doyle Curtsinger and Jim Shaw, and you ve got a release that is gonna make you want to sing! And, who better to back you up than The incredible Buckaroos!

Putman Curly - World Of Country Music (CD)
€20,00Quick ViewClaude ’Curly’ Putman Jr. is truly one of the titans of Nashville songwriting. His hits are ubiquitous, Green, Green Grass Of Home”, ”Elusive Dreams”, ”D-I-V-O-R-C-E” and countless others. What is far less known, is that Curly was also a fine recording artist. Collected here for the very first time are his two late ’60s LPs for the ABC label. An emotive and honest vocalist, Putman compellingly shares his tales of jailbirds, incarceration, heartbreak and isolation. More surprising perhaps, are quasi-psychedelic moments of self-reflection like ”Talking To The Grass” and suburban dysfunction like ”Who Loves Who”. Finally, available again, the thoughtful folk-country sounds of Curly Putman. Deluxe collector’s edition remastered from the original tapes with exclusive liner notes, rare photos and a rare 45 only side. *20 page full colour booklet with exclusive liner notes and rare photos. *22 track CD. All original recordings. Includes rare 45 only single.”

Haggard Merle - The Complete 60`s Capitol Singles (CD)
€18,00Quick ViewViimeisein päälle upea kokoelma! Omnivore’s 2013 set, The Complete ’60s Capitol Singles, is the first compilation to present nothing but the A- and B-sides from Hag’s ’60s Capitol singles. After 1965’s Strangers,” every single Merle released in the ’60s apart from 1967’s self-mythologizing ”Someone Told My Story” reached the Billboard Country Top 10, constituting one of the great runs in country music, a run not diminished by the presence of the single’s flipsides, which are sturdy songs cut from the same cloth as the A-side. By setting the parameters at Capitol, several of Merle’s earliest hits are absent — ”Sing a Sad Song,” ”Sam Hill,” and ”(My Friends Are Gonna Be) Strangers” were all released on the Californian independent label Tally, so they’re not here — and while they’re missed, The Complete ’60s Capitol Singles does offer something no other Haggard compilation has: each of these songs is presented in their original mono mixes, so this replicates how Merle Haggard would have been heard on the radio and on jukeboxes across America. This is how Merle Haggard sounded in the ’60s, when he catapulted from Bakersfield to the top of the charts, defining the sound of country music in the latter half of the decade, and by focusing intently on Haggard’s legacy-creating hot streak, this Omnivore collection re-creates the sound and feel of Merle at his peak, so it’s valuable even for those who already have this material elsewhere, whether it’s in career-spanning compilations or Bear Family’s in-depth exploration of these years.”

Jones George - The Complete United Artists Solo Singles (CD)
€18,00Quick View”Upea 32 biisin kokolma vuosilta 1962-194. Unlike Razor & Tie’s 1997 double-disc collection She Thinks I Still Care: The George Jones Collection (The United Artists Years), Omnivore’s 2013 set The Complete United Artists Solo Singles focuses directly on the 45s George Jones released for United Artists between the years 1962 and 1966 (he was only with the label until 1964 but they churned out singles for another two years after his departure). This is a bigger difference than it may initially seem. The 40-track She Thinks I Still Care sampled generously from Jones’ duets with Melba Montgomery, his tributes to Bob Wills and Hank Williams, his bluegrass and gospel LPs, which meant there were several singles absent from its track listing. Conversely, The Complete United Artists Solo Singles misses several of these stylistic detours (naturally, the title is a give-away that there are no duets to be found here), but it has its share of surprises — i.e, the rocking holiday single ”My Mom and Santa Claus (Twistin’ Santa Claus)” — and, better still, its 32 songs give a greater sense of how George Jones was heard at his ’60s peak: as a series of singles saturating the airwaves or cranking away on a jukebox. George had some of his biggest hits during these five years — ”The Race Is On,” ”She Thinks I Still Care,” ”You Comb Her Hair” — but his star didn’t shine as brightly as it did in the ’70s, when he was a fixture in the upper reaches of the charts. He was a popular country singer, regarded as one of the best and selling at a rate deserving of his reputation, and the singles reflect this status, as they’re largely exceptional pieces of straight-ahead country designed to please broad audiences. His hardcore Texas honky tonk wound up getting slightly sweetened by the pros in Nashville, a transition that resulted in the first flowering of his gorgeous ballad style, a bit of MOR Nashville sound (”Where Does a Little Tear Come From”) but also gave a bit of a lively snap to the novelties (”Geronimo,” ”The Best Guitar Picker”) and poppier tunes like ”What’s Money” or ”Your Heart Turned Life (And I Was on the Right).” This gives the United Artists singles some color, but the foundation lies in the purer country, whether it’s the haunted murder ballad ”Open Pit Mine” or such barroom weepers as ”A Girl I Used to Know” and ”Brown to Blue.” Taken together, each of these singles — including the B-sides, which are often quite strong — create a portrait not only of George Jones in the ’60s, but that decade’s mainstream straight-ahead country, a blend of Nashville and Texas that remains enormously appealing. Needless to say, this is the best way to hear George Jones’ United Artists recordings; it’s tighter, better than either the Razor & Tie comp or the enjoyable but very large Bear Family box.”

Owens Buck - Live At The White House + Bonus (CD)
€18,00Quick ViewThe original Capitol album plus 9 bonus tracks recorded for Apollo 16 (unreleased on earth). A 22-tracker from Buck Owens that gathers up two interesting and historical concerts. The first was given at the White House in 1968 for President Lyndon Johnson, and the second was a virtual concert that Buck committed to tape for playing during the Apollo 16 mission in 1972.
