Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars A classic that never grows old.......2007-06-17

If you love Johnny Horton this is one of the best collections.

5 out of 5 stars Great album.......2005-08-28

Since Johnny was known best for his historical songs, a compilation only seemed natural; although you'd do yourself a great disservice not to check out his other works....Johnny Horton could croon with the best of them. With the likes of the obese, donut-munching, American-hating Steve Earle being heralded today, it's absolutely refreshing to look back and
reflect on a time when real men unabashedly sang truly patriotic songs. You can almost smell the bourbon and Lucky Strikes. Get the album; it's worth every penny.

5 out of 5 stars history songs--and more.......2005-02-19

To my way of thinking, only two good history songs weren't sung by jJohnny Horton--"Old 97," and "Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald." Other than that, if it's history songs you want, it's Johnny Horton, and it's probably on this album. one missing is "John Paul Jones," but I'm sure that's around somewhere. mixed in with the historicals are the irresistible "Sleepy Eyed John," and "Sal's got a Sugar L Lip," both as down-home as a South Carolina man could want, and other great stuff from a singer who died far too young. Only now, with CD's can you really get much Johnny Horton. I heard "Battle of New Orleans," as a boy, and the record was next to impossible to locate. with this CD, and maybe one or two more, I'll have as much Johnny Horton as a guy needs.

5 out of 5 stars The Best!!!.......2005-01-04

My friends think I'm crazy for liking this CD! You see, I'm 16 and this is my favorite CD. I was raised on it. This is 100% real country!

4 out of 5 stars Rally 'round the flag, boys!.......2002-02-09

This collection showcases Johnny Horton's fantastic voice and wide range - he could sing it all, from stirring patriotic songs and historical mini-epics to moving ballads and even rockabilly. Of course, all the hits are here, like the irresistible "Battle of New Orleans" (which I listened to incessantly as a kid in the Sixties) and "North to Alaska," to name two personal favorites.

They just don't write `em like this any more, and more's the pity. You won't be able to resist singing along, I guar-an-tee it!

I regret this collection doesn't include a sentimental favorite of mine, "The Same Old Tale that the Crow Told Me," the flip side of "Sink the Bismarck." Despite that very minor quibble, this is a rousing CD, chock-full of unabashed pride and patriotism. You'll love it.

      Album Description

      The story of these Commodore and Decca recordings - timeless tunes waxed between 1939 and 1950 - is the story of Billie Holiday and Milt Gabler. It is the story of a singer and a producer and their creative, line-crossing partnership in a day when societal and racial lines were sharply drawn. And, like all tales involving legends of increasing stature, it is a story that is proudly retold - especially among family.

      "They had a bond together that I think was extraordinary," says Billy Crystal, Gabler's nephew and compiler of this collection, "because she knew that she did her best work with him. And I know he felt really proud of what he had done with her. Billie Holiday was Milt's love."

            5 out of 5 stars L. Gwozdz Does it Again.......2003-07-10

            "America Remembers" is the latest by the Rascher-school classical saxophonist, Lawrence Gwozdz. This time though, he's conducting a large ensemble of his excellent students, rather than himself playing. I strongly recommend all of Gwozdz's CDs, including this one. Many people, both classical enthusiasts and not, find it hard to imagine the saxophone as a classical instrument. This CD and all of Dr. Gwozdz's other CDs will definitely change that opinion.

            4 out of 5 stars One of the best Saxophone Orchestra CD's out there today........2002-03-02

            Don't be fooled. The Sax-Chamber Orchestra may be a college group, but the artistry and grace displayed in this CD is hard to match. Highlights of the CD include the Symphony for 11 Saxophones by Stephen Dankner (a piece written for the SCO), the Hartley Music for 12 Saxophones, and the Taggart Lament and Credo. The CD ends in a rousing fashion with an arrangement of Charles Ives' Variations on America. I recommend this CD to any lover of music, and especially any serious saxophone player.
