Free Music Notes for Appalachian Angel: Her Recordings 1950-1972 & 1996Free Music Review: "The Best There Is" Hit: 5 Stars
The Bear Family has really done it this time. I have several of their other female box sets like Connie Smith and Wanda Jackson but this outstanding set on the music of Anita Carter surpasses the rest. Why this lady was not the main female star of the 50's & 60's is a real mystry to most. Her real smooth and mellow Appalachian singing voice was better in my opinion then even Patsy Kline!
Where has all of these songs been stored over the years? Most folks who think "Ring of Fire" is the extent of this fine ladies achivements is in store for a rude awakening! My God,what a voice - after hearing the CDs in this great box set I think it is worth every penny that I paid for it (and it's not cheap).
The duets with Hank Snow are second to none and when her sister and mother (Maybelle)back her up on tunes like "I Dreamed I was there in Hillbilly Heaven", the results are downright scary!
Please keep in mind that this set is not for everybody. If your idea of Country Music is a naked Faith Hill rolling around under the sheets looking like a B-Girl singing God only knows what on some perverted music video then this set is not for you (that other kind of junk ain't part of nothing as the late Bill Monroe would say). This is real roots Country Music from one of the members of the first family of Country Music. The reproduction and remastered sound of this vintage collection is perfect.Boy could this girl sing and something that I will never understand is why collections like this can't be offered during the life of the Artist as they can see just how many folks are starving for their works. If Anita had not passed away at the young age of 66 who know what other recordings could have been made.
This set is a real keeper and again hats off to the Bear Family!
