Customer Reviews of Hot Pickin
Hot and Proper Travis Pickin' Bargain! A rollicking good buy, this comprehensive 50 track 2 CD collection of Merle Travis recordings spans the years 1943-1952, at a bargain price to boot! The first cut, one of several tasty rarities, 'You'll Be Lonesome Too', was recorded by Merle and 'Grandpa Jones' as the 'Sheppard Brothers' for King records (King 500) in 1943. Another sweet rarity follows, 'Will The Circle Be Unbroken' (King 530), which was recorded by Travis, Jones, and The Delmore Brothers as the 'Browns Ferry Four' in February of 1946. Tracks 15 & 16 of disc 1 are another nice pair of scarce 'Browns Ferry Four' tracks, 'If We Never Meet Again' & 'Over In Gloryland' (King 577 & 799), from October of 1946. Tracks 3 & 4 on disc 1, 'No Vacancy' and 'Cincinnati Lou', are Travis originals and were his first hits for Columbia after signing with the label in the spring of 1946. Track 7 disc 1, 'Divorce Me C.O.D. would be Merle's first #1 country hit and also crossed over to the pop charts. Merle's unique talent for songwriting kept the hits kept coming for Capitol throughout the forties and they're all here. This long overdue retrospective from Proper fully showcases the awesome talent of Merle Travis, his songs, great voice and unmatched guitar wizardry. There isn't enough room to comment on every delicious track here, but Merle's lightning fast pickin' on the incredible 'Merle's Boogie Woogie' alone (track 2, disc 2) is worth the price you'll pay for this set, while the yodeling on 'Sioux City Sue' and 'T For Texas' is as good as it gets. And, as if Merle weren't enough, these sides are dripping with luscious accompaniment & solos by the greatest players of the day, including my favorite pedal-steel player of all time, Joaquin Murphey, as well as Noel Boggs, Smokey Rogers and so many others. Includes a 15 page booklet with rare photos, extensive liner notes, and a detailed discography. These two discs, along with the out of print 'Walkin' the Strings' CD (Capitol 7243-8-35809-2-7), are must-have recordings for any Merle Travis fan.
