BYPASS THE WOUNDED BIRD CD FOR THIS FABULOUS REMASTER
BOB | LOS ANGELES, CA | 03/18/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"
As with the Dan Hicks Original Recordings mini-sleeve, Sony Japan has gone out on a limb and DSD-mastered this wonderful recording and packaged it in a minature of the original LP sleeve. There aren't many major labels that extend this type of care to non-Top 40 artists' catalogues.



The audio on this disc far surpasses the inferior LP-EQ'd, near-40-year-old master that Wounded Bird lazily utilized for their version.



If you love this recording, THIS is the version to get."
A Long-Overdue CD Reissue . . .
Gary Popovich | Chesterfield, VA USA | 12/05/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

". . . from one of acoustic music's most influential pickers. First gaining prominence as a sideman to both Jerry Jeff Walker and Bob Dylan, David Bromberg's debut album displayed a talent to be reckoned with. Bromberg's mastery of both country and more modern blues stylings, as well as an adeptness for straight out flat-picking, is impressive. Most surprising is his singing - with what would seem to be a deceptively limited voice, he is able to express a lonesome longing ("Last Song for Shelby Jean", "Deliah") and great humour ("Suffer if You Wanna Sing the Blues", "The Holdup", his wonderful colaboration with George Harrison).



David went on to record a pretty impressive volume of work, but this, along with "Wanted: Dead or Alive", remains my favorite collection from him. He was - and remains - a wonderful talent, and this CD will give you a great introduction to the expanse of his abilities."

"Been a fan of Davids since the seventies and he has to be one of the greatest singer songwriters around to be sure. His New York blues/folk style of guitar sounds to his songwriting he combines the perfect sounds that are not forgotten and have been with me for years and will be theres years to come. This is one of those records that has to be on every guitarist need to have list and songwriters need to learn list. This record is a 'must have' and to be sure has to be one of the better records he's ever recorded, a seventies stable to be sure."
