Disappointed - Not original.......2007-05-08

I didn't look closely enough (at reviews) when purchasing. Didn't listen (no option to listen). It is a remix or rerecord, not original. So, I've ordered again, the originals. Must have, especially Let Your Love Flow, my all time, will play it at my funeral, fave; it is who I am; connects with my very cell! Would I stand for anything but the original? Not.

Huge Fan & HUGELY Dissappointed!!!!.......2006-07-30

The Bellamys have always been one of my favorite C&W groups - since my 20's roughnecking in Wyoming & Okla. So when I was putting together a C&W CD collection this was one of the first I got. Now I find that like a few other stinkers in my collection [John Anderson, Bill Anderson, Ed Bruce, T.G. Sheppard, ETC.] This is a FREAKING RERECORD!!! What I want to know is why Howard & David would do this to their fans???? Is it because they don't have enough $$$? To wrest control away from the greedy record companies? To give their diehard fans a treat? Because no other BB collections are out there? Because other country stars have done it? Whatever the reason, it's just not good enough. Sure the songs sound OK. But don't the hardworking people of this country deserve to know what they're getting? If The 25 Year Collection [Vol. 1 & Vol. 2] is meant to be a special checking in thing, why not mark the dates clearly to make sure that fans know what they're getting? [Sure there is a picture of middle aged brothers, but lots of CDs have up-to-date photos. Leading a casual shopper to think maybe they oversaw the selection] Fact is, the whole business of rerecords is sleazy & underhanded. Not at all the wonderful values that lie at the heart of BB songs. And it makes me never want to buy another C&W CD again! Shame on you guys. You should donate every cent of this travesty to charity!

Huge fan and a little disappointed with this one..........2005-11-21

Why fix it if it ain't broken? These classics have been re-recorded and the end result is not nearly as good as the original cuts. Too heavy on the keyboards/instrumentals and weak studio mixing wrecked "Let your Love Flow" on this compilation- real bummer. The vocals on the live tracks overpower the instruments- usually it's the other way around with live recordings. If you're ok with that, then this compilation will be a "fair" addition to your collection.

First of two volumes covering all their hits - re-recorded.......2004-09-26

Despite being re-recordings, these are all extremely well done and no attempt has been made to do anything dramatically different with them. A few (not many) are live cuts, but the live effects are kept to a minimum.

As this volume includes Let your love flow and If I said you had a beautiful body, it may appear to be the stronger of the two volumes, but both volumes are equally good.

Other tracks on this voulme include Old hippie, I need more of you, You ain't just whistling Dixie and Reggae cowboy, but there are many other great songs here, and your favorite may be one I haven't even mentioned.

I have the UK editiion, in which both volumes were released together as a double CD (a brilliant idea - why wasn't this done in America?), which included lots of pictures (taken all over the world and even including one of Lucy Musser, their fan club president, who was there at the beginning) and credits but no liner notes. Although I do not know about the USA packaging, I expect these pictures are included in one or both volumes.

Don't worry about these not being the original recordings - buy this and it's companion volume and enjoy 25 years of their good-time music.

Marston Does it Again - and Again.......2002-03-13

Ward Marston has developed an amazing ability to bring old recordings back to life. The Gadski collections - there are two of them on his label - are amazing preservations of one of the great but neglected dramatic sopranos of the first 50 years of the 20th century. Listeners brought up on modern sound will have trouble with the surface noise; but learn to listen beyond it. Nobody sings like this today.

terrible sound quality.......2002-01-05

Although this CD has its place as a historic recording of Johanna Gadski, the sound quality is so terrible it is practically impossible to even evaluate Gadski's voice. If you buy this CD, do it only to have a recording of hers in your collection. DO NOT buy this CD for the great repertoire on it. It is not something you will listen to for enjoyment when wanting to hear beautiful music.

An excellent preservation of a remarkable voice........1998-09-23

Here is the "Golden Age" dramatic soprano, captured at her best in excerpts from the German and Italian operas in which she excelled, with some truly exquisite recordings of songs thrown in for good measure. This long-neglected artist has finally achieved the recognition she has so long-since deserved.
