After Awhile

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
Jimmie Dale Gilmore's tremulous, twangy whine is a beautiful thing, full of loneliness and humble awe. On After Awhile he uses it to fine advantage, on definitive versions of his standards, "Tonight I Think I'm Gonna Go Downtown" and "Treat Me Like a Saturday Night," as well as on a driving cover of Butch Hancock's "My Mind's Got a Mind of Its Own," which includes hot mandolin from Richard Bowden. After awhile, though, the stripped-down arrangements and melodies here can start to sound alike. Thankfully, the bluesy "Midnight Train," with snarling electric guitar from James Pennebaker, heats things back up and then some. --David Cantwell

5 out of 5 stars A musical treasure-box.......2006-09-10

Both the music and this actual product are masterpieces. John Dowland's collected works here - covering 12 compact discs - exhibit the depth and power of this composer, a composer who many now regard as suffering from clinical depression. I doubt that the issue of the diagnosis of Dowland's depression can ever be settled, however, it is certainly obvious from his music, so completely on display here, that he was a man with very dark depths and corners in his mind. Dowland's various manifestations and "takes" on his own tune, "Flow my tears"/"Lachrimae" are here. This tune has haunted me ever since I first heard it when I was a child. It seems to sum up Dowland's feelings - at least Dowland seems to have thought so.

The First, Second, Third and Fourth Bookes of Songes, A Musicall Banquet, the keyboard transcriptions, all the lute music, consort music are here and virtually everything else written or supposedly written by John Dowland. Anthony Rooley and The Consort of Musicke perform this music with style and feeling throughout. This 12 CD set is something of a monument to the ensemble - I only wish they'd finished their collection of Monteverdi madrigals, which was equally good (La Venexiana are currently doing a magnificent job of recording all Monteverdi's books of madrigals for the GLOSSA label).

This is an expensive set, however, you will probably never need to buy another John Dowland CD again after buying and listening to this collection.

I bought this CD set on a mild Summer evening of 1998 and listened to it while sitting in my sun room - which a glorious orange sunset in progress, and a glass of wine. It brought back so many memories.

5 out of 5 stars a beautiful journey into melancholy.......2001-06-15

I'm amazed at how many people tend to associate John Dowland's music with a tragic sense of drama. While no doubt this is art highly based on sadness, the "tragic" sense of it is more a legacy from the Romantic period. During the Renaissance, however, sadness was undestood as a very aesthetic way of approaching life. That is also the reason why Shakespeare's tragedies appear more sophisticated than his comedies.

Dowland, a contemporary of Shakespeare, discovered that meditating on a sad theme is, at the same time, a way of discovering a special beauty that we tend to avoid (maybe because of the "tragic" heritage of the Romantics). So, in the end, meditating on sadness is an uplifting experience! This box set is a journey into melancholy that includes songs, chamber music, pieces for lute, some rare sacred music and -as a highlight- Dowland's beautiful collection of seven pieces for viola which he called "Lachrimae" (Tears).

3 out of 5 stars Not his best album.......2007-07-16

No one could like Jimmie Dale Gilmore more than I do, but this is not his best album.

I loved "These Blues", including touch of Jimmie Rodgers at the end. "Blue Moon Waltz" is nice. "Story of You" is O.K. Other than that this is probably Jimmie's weakest album, in my opinion.

5 out of 5 stars a country classic........2007-04-05

i had a dream last night. i dreamed that i lived in a world where toby keith, vince gill and garth brooks were anonymous individuals, perhaps working in construction, and that the most lauded and famous country music stars were fellas named "billy joe shaver," "buddy miller," and "jimmie dale gilmore." what a great dream. and when i awoke i was sad, because i remembered how the world really was. i just wanted to go back to sleep and dream some more.

Several years ago my brother sent me this cd and at first I must admit I didn't get it. Gilmore's voice threw me but every once in a while I picked it up again and gradually (as Jimmie sings- sometimes we're a little slow in catchin on) the beauty of these songs just sank in and Gilmore's voice began to sound perfectly suited to them to my ears. Now years later I listen to this now and then and consider it one of my favorite country records. My brother passed on a few years ago and everytime I listen to Jimmie Dale Gilmore I think of him and thank him for introducing me to this great music.

5 out of 5 stars This one is a Classic.......2004-06-24

I keep this CD in constant rotation and it never grows old. Its hard to pick a highlight when all the songs are so delightful, from "Tonight I Think I'm Gonna Go Downtown" all the way through "Story of You." As a singer and songwriter, Jimmie Dale Gilmore is a Texas treasure, and he really shines on this CD. Stephen Bruton's production is clean and tasty, and James Pennebaker's fiddle is magical. Get it, play it, love it, and buy copies for all your friends.

5 out of 5 stars Simply Great.......2002-06-27

This one would get 5 stars just for the track "Tonight I Think I'm Gonna Go Downtown". A deceptively simple song that will haunt you once you've heard it. The rest of the recording does not dissapoint after this stellar lead track. Gilmore's unique voice and spare songwriting style make for a satisfying listen. Anyone who has an interest in Alt.Country or any other musical style that drifts outside the commercial margins would be well advised to check out anything by Jimmie Dale Gilmore.

5 out of 5 stars Smooth tones with a whole lot of Fun.......2002-04-17

This is simply a great CD. The Blenders do amazingly well blending together (fancy that), and the tones are too smooth! Their own songs are often hilarious (Accidental Lovers, Drive By, She Was Mine), and their covers make the originals sound lousy by comparison! There are few groups that can do a cappella better than these guys.

5 out of 5 stars Trollwood.......2000-03-03

This is my favorite of the Blenders' CDs, probably because it sounds the most like they did back at Trollwood a long time ago. If only you all could have heard the original group do some of the numbers from "Guys and Dolls." Glad to see the group is doing well.

5 out of 5 stars One of the best vocal music around - modern and cooool.......1999-11-03

The songs are crafted quite skillfully and I start mooving every time I listen to this CD.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent CD.......1999-10-22

this cd rocks, i totally lose myself every time i start singing it's song

5 out of 5 stars GO BLENDERS!!!!!.......1998-06-18

I am a total fan of the Blenders. They are great and I have seen them in concert. I wish more people would get the drift and start listening to them. They are great and are very hard workers. They deserve a lot more than they are getting right now. I LOVE THIS CD!!!

        5 out of 5 stars Too beautiful for words.......2004-05-25

        If Julian Bream's recordings were letters, his would all be hand written rather than typed.

        5 out of 5 stars Guitar History.......2004-02-15

        Julian Bream not only plays the guitar, and the lute
        (although purists and I suspect Bream himself would say rather unconventionally), but most of all, Bream plays MUSIC. This is very, very important. There are many fine guitarists around today, but I doubt any could match Bream's sheer musicality when these recordings were made.
        This 28 CD box set is a lesson in music making, regardless of what instrument is being played. The recordings are the complete RCA Bream catalogue from 1959 to 1989. If you can find the complete box set or even any of the individual volumes, I suggest you make the purchase. (Shame on RCA and BMG for not keeping this box set and "all" the individual volumes in print.)
        Some of the higlights of Breams remarkable talent are his
        interpretations of Britten's "Nocturnal", Walton's "Five Bagatelles", the instrumental and vocal works (with tenor Peter Pears) of Dowland, the "first" complete guitar works of Villa-Lobos, a thorough history of the guitar in Spain from the Renaissance to the Present on period instruments, plus all the works that have become classical guitar standards by Bach, Sor, Giuliani, Albeniz, Rodrigo, plus the "new" standards by Brouwer, Arnold, Berkeley, Britten, Walton, etc.
        Music making of this caliber is rare indeed. Buy it if you can find it. Good Luck !

        5 out of 5 stars Best deal there is!.......2002-05-06

        If you can find this set buy it fast. There are not to many of these left out there. This has it all. Plus Julian Bream is the greatest guitarist of all time.

        5 out of 5 stars Most excellent.......2001-08-18

        This a an wonderful collection of Julian Bream. He is the master of master . I always admire his talent as a genius of this centure.

        5 out of 5 stars Julian Bream, The Genius.......1999-01-09

        Who don't want to have a wonderful classical guitar collection? Well, this pack consists in 28 CDs, more than 1.000 minutes of music, distribuited by different titles as Baroque Guitar, Spanish Guitar, etc. Some highlights are here, like Asturias, Fernando Sor variations on Mozart's Magic Flute, Paganini Grand Sonata, all Preludes and Etudes of Villa-Lobos, and, well, lots of really good things. Also, there are some cds Julian Bream plays Guitar with Orchestra, or with Harpsichords. Ah, he plays lute in some too. Unfortunately, there are 2 or 3 cds where a tenor sings and another which a woman says some poems, and those, in my opinion, are not very nice. So, it's a good collection, and if you can, buy it!!
