Free Music Review: Webb Pierce...
Hit: 4 Stars
George Jones performance of "Yes I Know Why" is the highlight of the CD for me. I would've given him "Backstreet Affair" or "It's Been So Long" too! anyway, this CD is a tribute to a man who has been all but forgotten and there's no logical reason as to why. He was the #1 country artist of the 1950s and among the Top-10 artists of the 1960s. In the 1950's he sent 13 singles to the #1 spot. You might ask yourself: that's nothing too spectacular. Well, those 13 #1 hits spent a total of 111 weeks at #1. His biggest #1 was "In The Jailhouse Now", which hit #1 for 21 weeks in 1955. Dale Watson and the Jordanaires kick off this CD with their version. "Slowly" was #1 for Webb for 17 weeks in 1954. That's performed on this CD by Mandy Barnett. George's song on here, "Yes I Know Why", was a 7 week #2 hit for Webb in 1956. Ironically, the previous single for Webb was a song George co-wrote called "Why Baby Why". Actually, Webb sung harmony for Red Sovine on that single but since Webb was the bigger artist he got top billing. Kevin Welch and Deborah Pierce perform "Why Baby Why" on this CD. Charley Pride gives us "I'm Tired". Billy Walker gives us "I Don't Care", which Webb took to #1 for 12 weeks in 1955. I love the CD and the reason i give it 4 stars is because there's no new acts on here that would even remotely prompt young record buyers to buy this. It gets 5 stars for being eclectic and having great artists but we needed some newer acts on it too...just to have in order to sell to new country fans.
Caught In The Webb: Tribute To Webb Pierce Poster
"There Stands the Glass," "Back Street Affair," "Honky Tonk Song," "Tupelo County Jail"--the biggest hits by Webb Pierce aren't just country classics, they're iconic expressions of the country form. Spearheaded by 1980s country star Gail Davies, Caught in the Webb pays tribute to Pierce's legacy, but it provides other services too. For starters, all proceeds go to the Minnie Pearl Cancer Foundation. Additionally, the cast of current country musicians assembled here is unprecedented in its diversity. The lineup features Webb's fellow Hall of Famers George Jones, Willie Nelson, and Charley Pride; contemporary radio stars such as Dwight Yoakam and Pam Tillis; bluegrasser Del McCoury; singer-songwriters Guy Clark and Kevin Welch; songbirds Emmylou Harris and Crystal Gayle; and a slew of younger tradition-minded acts, including Dale Watson, Mandy Barnett, Robbie Fulks, BR549, and Allison Moorer. Finally, the music is marvelous. Throughout, the artists balance their distinctive styles with a reverence for Pierce's wailing, rocking originals. Indeed, Caught in the Webb is one of finest multi-artist tribute albums ever made. --David CantwellCountry Music CDs
