Johnny Cash – The Johnny Cash Children’s Album (1975)

Segue o disco que Johnny Cash fez para crianças. Simplesmente tem Johnny Cash falando de DINOSSAURO. Não tem como ser melhor.

“Now can’t you just see yourself walking along
Leading your pet Trachadon or feeding your Brontosaurus Rex?
Or scratching your Diplodocus neck
Or riding on a Stegosaurus back
or swimming in a Brachiosaurus track”
(Dinosaur Song)

Há outras boas músicas no disco, como Nasty Dan, Tiger Whitehead, Call of the Wild, Old Shep (cover de Red Foley) e a bem-humorada I Got a Boy (And His Name is John), na qual Johnny Cash e June Carter falam de seu filho John Carter Cash.

1. Nasty Dan
2. One and One Makes Two
3. I Got a Boy (and His Name is John)
4. Little Magic Glasses
5. Miss Tara
6. Dinosaur Song

“For several generations of country music fans it’s hard to imagine a world without Porter Wagoner. His death from lung cancer on October 28th, however, leaves us with no choice. So the least we can do is take advantage of this opportunity to salute a few highlights from the brilliant body of work he created over the course of a recording and performing career that spanned six decades.

Porter’s friendly persona and countrified mannerisms, along with his bright blond pompadour and spectacularly flashy rhinestone-studded stage wear, pretty much embodied the stereotypical image of a hillbilly singer in the 1950′s and 1960′s. For the lack of a better description, the bulk of the material he recorded would probably be regarded as “normal and straightforward” country music. And while it would be difficult to overstate the excellence of that work, many fans probably best remember him for a long string of extremely lurid and graphic songs about murder, incarceration, infidelity, tragic deaths, and skid row winos.”

Posto o disco The Bluegrass Story, do Porter Wagoner. Mistura interessante de bluegrass e honky tonk 60′s. Buck Trent, dos maiores e mais importantes banjoístas da música country, une-se a Porter Wagoner em 1962, ano em que também inventa o banjo elétrico (em 1976, Buck grava o disco Bionic Banjo, que será postado aqui em outra ocasião) e permanece em sua banda até 1973. Buck Trent é, portanto, banjoísta no The Bluegrass Story, 1964.
