Authentic Hillbilly Ballads and Topical Songs: Volume One (1954-1976) Red River Dave SKU: IMAR110LP Barcode: 0934334406286 29.00 £29.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Iron Mountain Analogue Research Released Date: 3rd November 2017 Buying Format: 2LP Coloured Vinyl Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info * Reissued for the very first time: the wildly fascinating, outrageous and heart-wrenching private-press 45s of Hillbilly poet laureate Red River Dave! * Limited Edition Deluxe Gatefold LP with exclusive scholarly liner notes by Alvin Lucia! * Full Dynamic Range 2017 Remaster direct from the first generation analogue master tape! Notorious for his 1970 song ‘California Hippie Murders!’ – a ghoulish, harrowing, yodelling retelling of the infamous (Charles Manson masterminded) Tate-La-Bianca slayings – Red River Dave was a genuine cowboy singing star turned tabloid balladeer. While ‘California Hippie Murders!’ might seem chilling and bizarre, within the body of ‘Red River Dave’ McEnery epic saga songs (collected here for the very first time), it makes perfect sense. The Moon landings, the kidnapping of heiress Patty Hearst, the Vietnam conflict, the assassination of JFK, the murder of young Emmett Till, Korean War ‘Manchurian Candidate’ brainwashing, patriotic tirades and Cold War dirges – all grist for the great Red River Dave Hillbilly song-mill. Often cut within hours or days of the event and pressed as minuscule edition private 45s: the tall, flamboyant, ’Buffalo Bill’ bearded McEnery cut a dashing figure in his gold-sprayed cowboy boots and cracking lariat – as he hawked these handcrafted cuts from the boot of his steer-horned Cadillac. Some sides presented here are so rare as to be near-mythical – you’ll hear Red River Dave wax about the death of Marilyn Monroe and the Bay of Pigs – in an eccentric and forgotten chronicle of the 20th century experience.
