Synopsis

Album Description

"Barry Poss was to contemporary, roots-based music in the last quarter of the twentieth century what Ahmet Ertegun and the Chesses and Phillips were to pop music a quarter-century earlier?the founder of a quality music label, a label that consumers came to trust on its own merits. Most of his bicentennial competitors have fallen away, but Poss and Sugar Hill continue to thrive." --Jay Orr, Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, from the box set liner notesFor 25 years and counting, Sugar Hill has maintained a tradition of integrity and quality as it explores new frontiers in music. Today, the eclectic Sugar Hill roster includes adventurous artists such as Nickel Creek, the Duhks, Sonny Landreth, Scott Miller and Sam Bush, as well as award-winning traditionalists like Dolly Parton and Tim O'Brien. Poss has handpicked tracks for SUGAR HILL RECORDS: A RETROSPECTIVE, a collection that illuminates 25-plus years of contributions to American roots music, and the evolution of the groundbreaking, Grammy-winning label.The massive SUGAR HILL RECORDS: A RETROSPECTIVE box set includes FOUR discs with 81 songs and a bonus DVD with exclusive artist interviews (TIM O'BRIEN, DOYLE LAWSON, JERRY DOUGLAS, and more), music videos, and archival photo gallery.The box set's 80-page booklet contains extensive liner notes by Poss including anecdotes and insights into the artists and times that shaped Sugar Hill?s legacy. Liners also include a historical perspective from Country Music Hall of Fame's Jay Orr, a well as artist reflections on the label and Poss.

CD Reviews

A great boxed set

James W. Durney | Tampa Bay area | 01/21/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"As the Nashville Sound developed, it ignored the market for traditional country music leading to the creation of Sugar Hill Records in 1978. This company was founded and continues to produce the best of traditional country music. They prefer to call their sound "roots-based contemporary music", which has merit. This is a combination of traditional sounds featuring old and new songs by some of our best artists.

The four music CDs are outstanding and I've found it impossible to find a pick of the litter. The first CD covers 1978 to 1986, starting with a fine Ricky Skaggs song and includes Doc Watson, The Osborne Brothers and The Country Gentleman. The second CD covers from 1982 to 1996 with The Seldom Scene, another Doc Watson, Townes Van Zant and some classic tracks. CD number three contains Del McCoury, another Seldom Scene track coupled with some classic and cotemporary songs. The fourth CD, 1998 to 2003, starts strong with Rodney Crowell doing I Walk the Line (Revisited) and never slows down. Don Rigsby, Nickel Creek and Dolly Parton keep the energy high and our foot tapping. The four CDs contain over eighty songs not one of which I consider a clinker. Included in the set is a 65-page booklet on the company, the artists and songs with photos on every page. A DVD of interviews, videos and a photo gallery complete the set. This is one collection that always is played both for the quality of the artists and the selection of songs.
