LEON PAYNE
I LOVE YOU BECAUSE
BCD 16195- AH

The blind Texan Leon Payne (1917-1969) is probably best remembered today as the songwriter who penned all-time classics like I Love You Because and You’ve Still Got A Place In My Heart, as well as two songs best known through Hank Williams’ recorded versions, They’ll Never Take Her Love From Me and Lost Highway. He wrote hundreds of others, too, but he was also a vital and versatile performer who recorded prolifically from 1941 through the 1960s. He gained only mid-level stardom nationwide, though he remained a popular performer in his native Southwest until his death. 

Payne recorded for such labels as Bluebird, Bullet, Decca, Starday, ‘D,’ and TNT, but it was during his mid-career stint at Capitol from 1949-1953 that he reached his peak and produced his most enduring music, from his classic, chart-topping first release I Love You Because to minor hits like I’m A Lone Wolf, and underappreciated sides like I Miss That Gal, If I Could Live My Life Over, and Poke Salad Greens. Collected here are the best of his Capitol years, including all of the above, and other memorable tracks, like I Hate To Leave You, A Link In The Chain Of Broken Hearts, Mailman, and Weeping Willow, as well as several unissued sides — 30 tracks in all. 

I Love You Because - I Miss That Gal - Poke Salad Greens - A Link In The Chain Of Broken Hearts - I Hate To Leave You - Find Them, Fool Them, And Leave Them - You’ve Still Got A Place In My Heart - I’m A Lone Wolf - If I Could Only Live My Life Over - How Can I Help It - Mail Man - Lolita - Did I Forget To Tell You - Sister Sue Polka - I Just Said Goodbye To My Dreams - It’s Many A Mile Back Home - I Don’t Know Why - Weeping Willow - Lonely And Blue Over Someone - Restless Heart - Lyin’ To My Heart - Fatal Letter - I Want You To Love Me - I Couldn’t Do A Thing Without You - Farewell Waltz - Wouldn’t It Be Wonderful - Teach Me To Forget - By Your Side - Empty Dreams - Golden Harvest

RAY PETERSON
Tell Laura I Love Her
CD Digipac with 44-page booklet
BCD 15880 AR

 The late Ray Peterson was the ultimate voice of teenage longing and heartbreak. During his early '60s peak, the four and a half octave range, the dramatic flair, and the naked empathy were all unique. Re-mastered for the first time on CD, all of Peterson’s highest charted recordings for RCA and Dunes including his smash hit Tell Laura I Love Her, the Baker Knight penned The Wonder Of You (a hit later for Elvis Presley) and the Phil Spector produced Corinna Corinna are here. "It was a real thrill hearing 'Tell Laura I Love Her' as sung by Ray, with such heart, like it happened to him, or Tommy was his brother," marvels songwriter Jeff Barry. "Ray was an artist who sang the words - he let his innate talent take care of the notes."

 Peterson’s story, along with newly discovered information, is told by entertainer/essayist Johnny Vallis in a remarkably informative booklet that boasts both a detailed discography and a generous selection of photos. Jam packed with 31 stellar recordings, many fan favorites are re-released for the first time, all with the famous Bear Family sound. More than just a hits collection; this superior package provides a fitting retrospective to an often overlooked talent.

JOHNNY PRESTON
RUNNING BEAR
BCD 15473-AH

Johnny Preston is best remembered for his big 1959/60 hit Running Bear which was also his first recording. He enjoyed subsequent hits like Cradle Of Love and Feel So Good. He is a talented and versatile singer with a broad range, as well as an innate feel for R&B and an equal facility with ballads. His covers of classics, like his very early recording on The Twist, to his sensitive readings of classic ballads like Dream and Danny Boy, hold up well almost forty years later.

ORVAL PROPHET
THE TRAVELLIN’ KIND
BCD 16376 -AH

They called him ‘The Canadian Ploughboy’ and that’s precisely what he was. In fact, his unwillingness to leave the family farm in eastern Ontario, Canada adversely affected his chances of making it in the highly competitive world of early Fifties country music. There’s no doubt that Orval had the talent. He was signed to Decca, Nashville in 1951 and recorded several singles for the label including one that became a big Canadian hit, Judgement Day Express. The sound was modelled closely on Hank Snow, but Orval made the records uniquely his own. In 1957, Orval returned to Nashville to record two sessions as ‘Johnny Six.’ His recording of Mademoiselle also became a big Canadian hit, and a local hit in the USA, but once again Orval retreated back to eastern Ontario to become a local legend ... and nothing more. This set gathers all of Orval’s 1950s recordings. The sound on the early songs is tight, rocking Fifties country very much in the Hank Snow tradition. The ‘Johnny Six’ recordings are more countrypolitan, but still definitely country. You might not have heard of him before, so be prepared for how good he is!

The Prowlers with Les Vogt
BCD 16669 AH

Formed in Vancouver, Canada in 1955, the Fraserview Drifters performed songs by Hank Snow, Frankie Laine, Homer & Jethro, etc., but with the arrival of rock and roll, they abruptly changed direction. Now influenced by Elvis Presley, they changed their name to suit their new style. Now they became The Prowlers, after a popular radio program in Vancouver (a dee-jay named Jack Cullen had a show called the Owl Prowl). The band played with Gene Vincent, Bill Haley, Earl Bostic and Ivory Joe Hunter, and were one of Canada's earliest rock 'n' roll bands. They were playing rock 'n' roll as early as April 1956. The CD also contains all the solo recordings by the Prowlers' lead singer, Les Vogt. In Vancouver, Les had a number 1 song withThe Blamers. It knocked Elvis's It's Now Or Never out of the top spot back in 1960. Later, it was released in the US on Apt Records, and achieved some local success on the west coast. For rock 'n' roll fans, this is an undiscovered gem. Raw, exciting first generation rock 'n' roll by someone you've probably never heard of. There are still sweet surprises after all these years!
