Bobby Bare: Lullabys, Legends & Lies (CD)

1-CD with 32-page booklet, 14 tracks. Playing time approx. 58 mns.

Soon after Bobby returned to RCA in 1972, he recorded an entire LP of songs by the legendary songwriter, cartoonist and humorist Shel Silverstein. The album yielded three hits, Daddy What If, Marie Laveau (Bobby's first ever #1 hit) and The Winner. Ten other songs feature Silverstein's weird and often ironic twist on the country song. This is regarded by many as Bobby's best-ever album!

LULLABYE, LEGENDS AND LIES 
Thirteen songs, all written by Shel Silverstein and sung by Bobby Bare, that mean to tell a story. The sort of story that used to be sung by the broadside balladeer, by the pioneer family around the campfire, and which is told and sung all too infrequently today. Shel bridges the years with these songs, writing his sagas about American heroes from Paul Bunyan to today's Easy Rider. Bobby sings his way through thirteen stories, explaining some old legends, creating some new ones, and certainly telling a lot of lies. 

Gather 'round, fellows, I'll tell you some tales 
About murder and blueberry pies, 
And heroes and hells and bottomless wells 
And Lullabys, Legends And Lies. 

And gather 'round, ladies, come sit at my feet, 
I'll sing about warm sunny skies; 
There's mermaids and beans and lovin' machines 
In my Lullabys, Legends And Lies. 

Lullabys, Legends And Lies and Lies, 
Lullabys, Legends And Lies; 
I'll sing you a song, and I'll shuffle along 
With my Lullabys, Legends And Lies. 

I may make you wonder, I may make you smile, 
I may bring the tears to your eyes; 
But when I disappear, Lord, you'll wish I was here With more 
Lullabys, Legends And Lies. 

So open the bottle and pass a guitar 
And look in my warm lovin' eyes, 
I'll take you to places you ain't been before 
My Lullabys, Legends And Lies.

Bobby Bare

Bobby Bare
born 7 April 1935 in Ironton - Ohio Record

Labels: Fraternity, Capitol, RCA, Mercury, United Artists, Columbia, Rice, Ember, Intercord, Bare Works

First Hit: Shame On Me (1962) First Top Ten Hit: Detroit City (1963)

Former farm and factory worker Bobby Bare began his career as a guitarist in a small country band. Shortly before he was called up for military service, he quickly recorded the self-written title "All American Boy" and sold the recording with all copyrights for 50 dollars to Fraternity, which also released the record, not under the cash name but under the pseudonym Bill Parsons. After military service, Bobby Bare made a second attempt, wrote three songs for the film "Teenage Millionaire" and had his first hit in 1962 with "Shame On Me".

Bobby Bare was one of those musicians who brought a folksy touch with dominant unamplified guitars to the Nashville sound in the mid-1960s and thus met the folk trend of the time. Other great bare hits were "Detroit City", "500 Miles Away From Home", "Miller's Cave" and "Four Strong Winds".

After excursions to smaller record companies, Bobby Bare joined Columbia in the late 1970s, where he recorded a whole series of fantastic L.P.s and recorded numerous hits. Nevertheless, the great success did not come any more and so Bobby Bare came to Capitol a second time in the mid 80's, where, similar to in the 50's, also this time they did not really know what to do with him.

It remained with a few singles with medium hit parade success. Obviously Bobby Bare does not manage to continue his great time, the 60s.
