     (*This is a compilation of music from various Katie Webster cds (plus
some extras). Heavenly Gospel Quartet do some of the quirky singing that
makes many of these early recordings so fun to listen to. I wish musicians
would reach back that far when listening and find how much experimentation
was done. J.C. Burris is Sonny Terry's nephew. So far this CD of Rose
Maddox singles is a gem*.)

     (*Ougenweide was a German folk rock band (the medieval folk rock).
Probably the most familiar version of Spring... is from Ella Fitzgerald.  A
diverse album of versions of Dolly songs. Percy Sledge!  Sierra Ferrell has
been singing this song in concert, making it her own. Dolly again showing
how she was fearless in choosing songs and in remaking them in unexpected
ways. The Treasures CD is a gem.*)
