CD-5 - Bill Monroe - Castle Studio 1950 - 1951 - Complete Sessions

Für die Anhänger von Bill Monroes Musik waren die von BEAR FAMILY seit 1989 veröffentlichten CD-Boxen die Erfüllung aller Hörerträume: die kompletten Aufnahmen des Bluegrass-Pioniers, geschmackvoll zusammengestellt als CD-Sets mit informativen Begleitbüchern. Jetzt haben wir etwas noch viel großartigeres: alle bekannten DECCA-Aufnahmen von Monroe aus den Jahren 1950-51, mit den Sängern Jimmy Martin, Carter Stanley und Edd Mayfield, und dazu – unglaublich! – sämtliche Outtakes (alle bisher unveröffentlicht) von jedem Stück. Dies bedeutet unter anderem mehrere Takes von Raw Hide – eine Offenbarung für Musiker und aufmerksame Hörer, die diese spektakuläre Aufnahme jahrelang studiert haben. 

Es bedeutet außerdem, daß das Tape-Klicken, das wir bisher bei The First Whip-poorwill toleriert hatten, jetzt nicht mehr zu hören ist, da die zuvor veröffentlichte Version von einem fehlerhaft kopierten Band stammt, während die „neue“ 1951er-Version vom original- Masterband kommt.

Diese traumhafte Edition enthält außerdem eine von Neil Rosenberg überarbeitete Diskographie sowie Linernotes von Dick Spottswood (bearbeitet von Rosenberg) mit Erinnerungen von Monroe-Geiger Charlie Smith. 

Bluegrass vom Feinsten!
