Dean 'Tex' Martin On CD

(5 out of 5 stars)
"The entire selection of songs on this cd are from Dean Martin's Reprise Years. A few of these recordings have been released through Capitol Records already, but most have not been released officially. If you see this CD, buy it. The Excellent sound and 'Hard to Find' Reprise recordings on this disc make this a must purchase. Highly Recommended!"

"Although there are no liner notes to say so, this is actually a complete reissue of Dean's second and third LPs for Reprise ("Dean "Tex" Martin - Country Style" from 1962, and "Dean "Tex" Martin Rides Again" from 1963). The arrangements here are a little more restrained than the thumping countrypolitan hits that would follow later, which is good. 24 tracks (62 minutes), and very good sound. This CD is listed as out of stock, but shows up occaisionally in shops and from other vendors. Grab it if you see it!"

"Great collection of Dean's country flavored Reprise recordings. The Reprise material is a bit difficult to come by & this cd is packed with 24 titles. Dean always had a penchant for the south and all things southern. I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry is excellent...Give a listen to an obscure gem, Shutters and Boards-"
