There are few sounds as mesmerizing as the cascading tremolo of several mandolins playing in unison; quite literally, it's like nothing else. So it's no wonder that, at the turn of the 20th century, the mandolin--an instrument with European roots and American ingenuity behind it--became the instrument to play. Sure, the instrument's fame would fade in the mid-1920s when the banjo and guitar took center stage, but for nearly 20 years, it was America's instrument. The Gibson company--innovators in changing the style of the modern mandolin--had "teacher-agents" to help spread the gospel of the instrument and its varied repertoire while mando clubs sprang up everywhere. What were all these folks playing? As heard on this disc, a wide assortment of classical tunes, European ballads, waltzes, marches, and instrumental pop tunes. The Nashville Mandolin Ensemble performs all of these works with an amazing mastery: it's a classical ensemble like none you've ever heard before--nearly a dozen mandolins playing together. The great liner notes tell the story of the mandolin's evolution from ethnic folk to light-classical to bluegrass axe in fascinating detail, but the music--especially on 1903's "La Tipica" and 1910's "My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice"--shines. Great sonics and memorable music will have you feeling nostalgic. --Jason Verlinde

Customer Reviews:

Brash Bravado.......2003-10-08

This album contains music of historical importance for the mandolin. Two of the songs (My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice & Gallantry) were extremely beautiful, and were instantly among my all-time mandolin favorites. Much of the album, however, was too brash & too tinny for my taste. The "cascading tremolo" I was expecting was not as pervasive as I might have wished. If you are particularly fond of marches & dances (waltz, polka, etc.), this might be a great choice for you, but I could do without the bravado.

Modern Mandolinists Revisit the Past.......2000-03-01

This CD contains historically important mandolin music, which is lively and performed with peerless artistry. The Nashville Mandolin Ensemble provides a valuable musical perspective of the fretted instrument orchestras that were "All the Rage" at the dawn of the twentieth century. The repertoire is varied and delightful. The uniqueness of this CD will result in its being played over and over.

Album Description

Starting his career at Sun Records in 1958 a few years after Elvis had left for RCA, Rich released many recordings throughout the next decade and a half but didn't have any real chart success until the early `70s. These two albums, released in '74 and '75, prove that Rich was still at the top of his game, releasing country albums that easily crossed over into pop territory and beyond. His material was far more superior and successful, yet tread similar ground, to what Elvis was recording at the time. The Silver Fox features `Behind Closed Doors', which was Charlie's biggest hit. Both titles are currently unavailable in the U.S., which makes this a must have for fans of Charlie Rich and country music in general. Edsel. 2005.

Album Details

Originally Released in 1974 and 1975 Respectively on the Epic Label.

Customer Reviews:

Good outweighs the bad.......2006-04-10

The first half of this programme is Charlie's 1975 "Silver Fox" album, which gives us some idea of what a Charlie Rich concert would be like - basically, Charlie telling the story of his years of struggling for recognition followed by "overnight success", interspersed with new versions of some of his Sun classics and his Epic hit "Behind Closed Doors", followed by new and recent recordings. If you can get past the narration, which is excruciating, the songs are absolutely blinding - there is not a weak track on the entire album, and his new recordings of "Don't Put No Headstone On My Grave" and "Break-Up" are sublime.

The same cannot be said of the second half, "Every Time You Touch Me" (1976), which unfortunately has too many sugary tracks giving us a foretaste of the musical direction he would take from then on - frankly, a complete lack of engagement and mostly worthless material. However, this album is redeemed by brilliant versions of "Since I fell for You", "Midnight Blues" (terrific!) and "Pass On By", plus the bitter-sweet "Rendezvous". If only he had kept it up!

Yet another chance to meet Charlie Rich..........2005-12-10

This is the third volume in the DEMON/ EDSEL re-issue series of Charlie Rich's Epic Recordings. The first two volumes sold well enough to release this third one. But there's still a fourth volume missing, containing Take Me & Roling with the Flow. That one will be released if this one sells adequatly! It's a shame that these albums weren't available for years. Charlie Rich is still undiscovered by most people, but his talent is equal to that of Elvis and Orbison...and indeed, his music is superior to that of Elvis and Orbison during the 70's.

The first album presented on this release is The Silver Fox. This one is as good as Behind Closed Doors and Very Special Love Songs. But this one's a little different because the first half of the album (first 6 songs) Charlie talks about his career between the songs. Quite interesting, since he play's blues, rockabilly, big band and jazz as wel as his biggest hit Behind Closed Doors.
But the absolute highlight of the album is Feel Like Going Home, his best composition and sung with more passion than you can imagine. On former site 2 Charlie delivers some excellent ballads. Especially I Love My Friend and Your Place Is Here With Me are outstanding.

Album two is Every Time You Touch Me (I Get High). This one has some very high ups, but also some missers. Highlights are the title track, She, All Over Me, Pass On By and Since I Fell For You. However, A Mellow Melody, A Little Bit Here and You and I aren't that great.

This is absolutely an essential Charlie Rich cd, but for new comers I suggest the first two volumes and Behind Closed Doors (remastered version) first, before buying this one. But when you have those, you will buy this one also!

Finally the talented&awesome Silverfox album on CD !!!.......2005-11-15

After the great "Behind Closed Doors" album, finally "The Silverfox"& "Everytime You Touch Me (I get High)" on CD!!!
The best 'Epic' period of The talented Silverfox ! AWESOME !!!
A must for the fans ;)

Nashville was a whole lot more than the country music capital of the world during the late '60s and early '70s. Shelby Singleton unleashed a torrent of sizzling southern soul singles on his SSS International label and its affiliate Silver Fox imprint. These two jam-packed anthologies feature the very best that the two labels had to offer.

When looking for "the most".......2001-05-14

A local New York professional opera enthusiast has concluded that Corelli is the most popular operatic tenor, followed by Jussi Bjoerling. But if the question is, who had the most beautiful tenor voice ever impressed upon wax, we must lift up John McCormack. Here is true bel canto which no one else has ever equalled. These two CD's contain some of the most exquisite sounds ever issued by a human throat. Let the galleries declare their enthusiasm for stentorian high C's, the real lover of great singing will find much more to their like her than in all the verisssimo arias. Listen to the two "Mefistofele" Arias (Boito) and ask yourself if they have ever since been so beautifully sung. This recording belongs in the collection of every aspiring tenor, just to remind what can be accomplished by art and perfect singing.

A superb McCormack collection.......2000-10-21

If you remember hearing transfers of acoustic recordings to LP, you remember how hard it was to really connect with the music and performer through all the rumble, noise and resonance. This audio restoration is the most astonishing technical feat I have ever heard. The noise is now only a gentle background presence, not the roar of yesteryear. And even more important, it is constant in volume- in other words not a distraction. The fidelity really lets us hear what the early recording engineers really achieved. That said, what this brings to us are the performances of one of the world's greatest singers in richly emotional popular songs (and a few opera arias). There are so many of those old sentimental pieces no one could get away with recording anymore, but hold such a splendid reward for those of us who love them. John McCormack's recordings receive with this reissue the wonderful presentation they so richly deserve. Many many thanks to the label and Mr. Marston who made it possible.

Simply the Best.......2000-01-27

This along with Vol. 1 is simply the best McCormack transfers available from this period. The master of the trade, Ward Marston has outdone himself this time. Waiting for Vols. 3,4,5!
