September 19 , 2010NEW CD "LIVE IN CONCERT 1979" OUT by Boblo Records Order at www.orionjimmyellis.com From the press release: Although there is a minor 1/2 second blip after the music break on the "I Forgot to Remember to Forget" track, the CD is just outstanding....the liner notes give a concise history of Bobby Smith's Orion experience. After all, Bobby and Nick Scott were there throughout all the Orion days and nights with Sun Records. This CD is part of history that all Orion fans will enjoy for many years!! Thanks, Bobby Smith! TRACKLISTING: All tracks previously released except 1 & 2. Tracks 3 - 12 & 16 are concert rehearsals released on Chet Bennett - CD "A voice from the past". Tracks 13 - 15 are the Boblo studio recordings. All tracks have overdubbed applause. |

September 5 , 2009NEW CD-SINGLE "GEORGIA PINES" OUT NOW! Buy it here: www.playgroundrecordingstudio.com Info from Playground Recording Studio: Is the Jimmy Ellis version identical to the "JE at Playground Recording Studio" CD released in 2006?-> NO! It is a complete(!) new mix from the multisession tape with MUCH superior sound quality and a different lead vocal fade.What about the other three takes of Georgia Pines on the CD?-> Track 2 has Jimmy Louis (well known performer/songwriter from Kansas) on lead, same Beaverteeth backing track-> Track 3 has Charlie Silva (drummer of Beaverteeth) on lead - that's the original-> Track 4 is the beautiful backing track only with the harmonies on the fade - slightly different mastered than the three takes with a lead vocal. The CD booklet features the complete song lyrics, so everyone could sing along if he like to.Why should I buy the new release?-> First: The song "Georgia Pines" is an important part of American music history. Everyone who grow up in the South in the late 1960's remember this song - either by the James Gang with Wilbur Walton Jr. on lead or the version by the Candymen (Roy Orbison's band). It's really THE HYMN OF THE SOUTH, which is back again after more than 40 years. Second: The whole mastering and mixing process was done by todays highest professional studio standards using the best studio equipment from the vintage and modern world. It took more than three months(!) before the team achieved the result they were looking for - not that usual overcompressed flat and dead sound of so many todays releases, but a warm and tender sound with tons of dynamic range and details to listen to. Prominent people who already had a chance to listen to were stunned by it's sheer quality, both in technical and artistically way.One final note by famous Buddy Buie - one of the songwriters of "Georgia Pines".-> "I remember being in NYC broke,homesick,locked out of my hotel room for non-payment, and dejected. That day I wrote "Georgia Pines".This song was straight from the heart. I was surrounded by concrete and steel, longing for fresh air, green trees and farmland. When I did get back to Dothan, I sang it to John Rainey Adkins and he loved it. He helped me finish it. Later, I recorded it with Wilbur Walton. I am honored that the Germans call it "The Hymn of The South". I'm sure Wilbur feels the same......Buddy." |
May 14, 2009NEW CD "FROM THE VAULTS" ANNOUNCED no release date available New CD with unreleased SUN material announced by the producers who released "At Playground Recording Studio", "A Voice From The Past" and "Live At The Pigeon Forge Grand Hotel". TRACKLISTING As you can see of the tracklist not ALL of the songs are unreleased.
