Free Music Notes for 30th Anniversary Celebration

Free Music Review: Brilliant collection of a unique quartet
Hit: 5 Stars

The line-up of the Statler brothers was Harold Reid, Lew DeWitt, Phil Balsley and Don Reid (Harold's brother) when they cut their first record, and the only line-up change since then was when Lew had to withdraw in 1982 because of vocal problems. Jimmy Fortune replaced him. Very few groups in any genre of popular music remain as stable over such a period of time, although there have been others - the Four Tops stayed together for over 40 years.

This collection is presented in chronological order, with my favorite Statler songs tending to be those from the first CD, although there are many excellent songs throughout the collection.

The Statlers sang about a variety of things, but nostalgia was one of their trademarks. Normally, when singers want to go back in time, they record covers of songs from the era they want to remember. The Statlers adopted a different approach - they wrote new songs about the old days - and about old movies. Good examples include The class of '57 (about the people they went to school with, and what happened to them), Silver medals and sweet memories (about a war widow), Whatever happened to Randolph Scott? (a song which prompted the actor to meet the Statlers), Carry me back and Do you remember these?

The Statlers also liked a good joke - several of their songs are very amusing. Among these are Small, small world (about two men who's girlfriends are very similar), How to be a country star (about the major country stars of 1979 - this may seem a bit dated now), You can't have your Kate and Edith too and Ruthless (about a man being rejected by Ruth).

The Statlers recorded other types of song too, including love songs and gospel songs - but whatever they chose to sing, their quartet harmony singing remains one of the most recognisable sounds in country music history, so even their cover versions sound distinctive - listen to their versions of Hello Mary Lou and Amazing Grace.

This box contains 62 songs and an interesting booklet, which includes track listings of all their original albums, many of which are now out of print. Because of that, this is the only way you can currently buy many of these songs, and it's much better value than their greatest hits collections.
