Leadbelly - The Definitive Leadbelly [Catfish] (3 Disc set)

Styles: Country Blues, Acoustic Blues, Folk-Blues, Folksongs, Songster
Released: 2002
Label: Catfish
Art: front


Notes: For some reason very few people know about this compilation. I'm not sure why, as it's definitely the best Leadbelly compilation on the market. The sound quality is great, it's comprehensive without being too long, and it's got great liner notes. The way the songs are divided on the discs is great too. Disc one contains most of the big hits, making it a sort of greatest hits album, while discs two and three contain more rarities and alternate takes. Definitely recommended for any Leadbelly fan or anyone looking for an introduction to the artist. ~ Aaron Smith

Notes: Leadbelly - When the Sun Goes Down, Vol. 5...Leadbelly: Take This Hammer
Audio CD - RCA/Bluebird 82876-50957-2
CD Release Date - May 6, 2003
The fifth issue in Bluebird's Secret History of Rock & Roll project is the first by a single artist; the previous four have all been various-artists compilations. All feature excellent sound and decent if not exceptional packaging. This set, the complete RCA Victor recordings of Leadbelly, is up to that standard. All of the 26 tracks here were recorded in June of 1940 and released at various times as 78s by Bluebird. Some of the material includes virtually definitive versions of "Midnight Special," "Rock Island Line" (primarily because of the quality of the recording itself; the performance is awesome, but all of Leadbelly's performances of this song are), "Easy Rider," "Grey Goose," "TB Blues," "Don't You Love Your Daddy No More," the title track, "Stewball," and "I'm on My Last Go 'Round." This alone is reason enough for any fan of Leadbelly to purchase the CD, and these transfers are so fine, so warm, and so true sounding that they mark a new standard in remastering material from worn master tapes. (Give a listen to the back-to-back tracks "Good Morning Blues" and "Leaving Blues" -- they sound as if Leadbelly is hanging on your couch singing these songs.) The music here doesn't sound like archival material; it sounds alive and it becomes possible to hear what those who were initially knocked out by Leadbelly were able to experience. For anyone interested in Leadbelly's music, this is as essential as the Folkways recordings -- and in some ways, more so. ~ Thom Jurek

Take This Hammer

Appendix: An album that I have posted 13 09. 2013. Leadbelly - Take This Hammer obviously has the wrong image and some of the figures in notes, everything else is fine. I got this album from a friend of five or six years ago, why he has only 13 tracks I don't know. Maybe it's issue some smaller label from Eastern Europe or something.

Leadbelly - Take This Hammer

Styles: Songster, Minstrel, Folk-Blues, Acoustic Blues
Recorded: 1940
Released: 1965/2003
Label: Bluebird
File: mp3@320K/s
Size: 90.9 MB
Time: 39:42
Art: front

1. Pick a Bale of Cotton - 3:00
2. Alabama Bound - 3:05
3. Yellow Gal - 2:59
4. Midnight Special - 3:07
5. Rock Island Line - 2:37
6. Whoa Back, Buck - 3:07
7. Good Morning Blues - 2:54
8. Leaving Blues - 3:02
9. TB Blues - 3:08
10. Red Cross Store Blues - 3:08
11. Sail on Little Girl, Sail On - 3:16
12. Roberta - 3:01
13. Alberta - 3:12

Personnel:
Leadbelly - Guitar, Vocals
Golden Gate Jubilee Quartet - Performer


Notes: Although the gimmicky subtitle of this release is "The Secret History of Rock & Roll," this music stands apart from merely being an influence on rockers 20 years later. The valuable release has all of the music recorded by folk/blues singer-guitarist Leadbelly during two sessions he cut for Victor in 1940. Thirteen of the 26 selections have Leadbelly joined by the Golden Gate Jubilee Quartet and these were originally released as Midnight Special. The other 13 numbers are solo vehicles for Leadbelly that range from traditional story-telling to blues; highlights include the classic "Good Morning Blues," "TB Blues," "Sail On Little Girl, Sail On," "Alberta, "Roberta" and "Alabama Bound." Although a few of the numbers are a bit primitive, this set is an excellent introduction to the historic and wide-ranging music of Leadbelly.
