Songs of the Prairie, The Sons of the Pioneers + Roy Rogers (Bear Family, 1998)

Description: Songs of the Prairie by The Sons of the Pioneers & Roy Rogers (Bear Family Records, [5-disc box]). Recorded between August 1934 and September 1935, the first four discs offer Sons of the Pioneers as a quartet, Bob Nolan, Tim Spencer, Len Slye, and Hugh Farr in their first flourish of success, beginning in August of 1934. The performances here are different from, and usually more spirited than, the group's Decca recordings. "Way Out There" is a number that the group cut commercially several times over as its lineup changed, but it never sounded fresher than the version here. Another joy of this set is the spotlight given to Hugh Farr -- the violinist is showcased in a series of instrumentals, including "Milenburg Joys," "Fire in the Mountains," and "Whistlin' Rufus." The fourth and fifth discs feature the five-man group lineup, with guitar virtuoso Karl Farr; all of a sudden, the group's playing rises to the level of its singing, from impressive to downright dazzling as the Farr brothers become a pair of dual sparkplugs in the instrumental mix. Some tracks are in slightly rough condition, but considering that these discs, according to the contracts under which they were licensed, were supposed to be destroyed at the end of their licensing term, just having them around to hear is something close to miraculous. Condition is "Like New". Ships free and insured with USPS Media.
