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.

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

Der ehemalige Farm- und Fabrikarbeiter Bobby Bare begann seine Karriere als Gitarrist in einer kleinen Country Band. Kurz bevor er zum Militärdienst eingezogen wurde, nahm er noch rasch den selbstgeschriebenen Titel ,All American Boy“ auf und verkaufte die Aufnahme mit allen Copyrights für 50 Dollar an die Firma Fraternity, welche die Platte auch veröffentlichte, doch nicht unter Bares Name, sondern unter dem Pseudonym Bill Parsons. Der Titel wurde ein Riesenhit und erreichte in der amerikanischen Pophitparade den zweiten Platz im Jahre 1959. Nach dem Militärdienst nahm Bobby Bare einen zweiten Anlauf, schrieb drei Songs für den Film ,Teenage Millionaire“ und hatte mit „Shame On Me“ 1962 seinen ersten Hit.

Bobby Bare gehörte damals, Mitte der 60er Jahre, zu jenen Musikern, die in den Nashville Sound einen „Folksy Touch“ mit dominierenden unverstärkten Gitarren einbrachten und damit dem damaligen Folk-Trend entgegenkamen. Weitere große Bare-Hits hießen ,Detroit City“, „500 Miles Away From Home“, „Miller`s Cave“ und ,Four Strong Winds“.

Nach Exkursionen zu kleineren Plattenfirmen stieß Bobby Bare Ende der 70er Jahre zu Columbia, wo er eine ganze Reihe fantastischer L.P.s einspielte und zahlreiche Hits verbuchen konnte. Dennoch, die ganz großen Erfolge stellten sich nicht mehr ein und so stieß Bobby Bare Mitte der 80er Jahre ein zweites Mal zu Capitol, wo man, ähnlich wie in den 50er Jahren, auch diesmal nicht so recht wusste, was man mit ihm anfangen sollte.

Es blieb bei ein paar Singles mit mittlerem Hitparadenerfolg. Ganz offensichtlich gelingt es Bobby Bare nicht mehr, an seine große Zeit, die 60er Jahre anzuknüpfen.
