Description
For the series of sessions that laid the foundation for Willie Nelsons career and thus changed the course of modern country music, these recordings have been treated pretty cavalierly over the years.
The songs Willie recorded for Pamper during the early 60s remain among his most famous, and include tunes he still performs to this day: Crazy, Funny (How Time Slips Away), Night Life, Pretty Paper, Half a Man, Hello Walls, Healing Hands of Time, and more. And these, the Pamper demos, are the first recordings of those legendary songs. It simply doesnt get much more historic than that!
But, for some reason, these demos have hitherto turned up in bits and pieces, mostly on budget packages with little documentation or care. Now, finally, these incredibly important recordings are getting the respect they deserve. Things to Remember The Pamper Demos brings together these 28 performances for the first time (several of which have hitherto eluded compilation), all remastered by Mike Milchner at SonicVision and annotated by Grammy-winning writer Colin Escott, with photos courtesy of Bear Family label founder Richard Weize.
Available from Real Gone Music as a CD or a gatefold , red vinyl double- LP limited to 1000 copies, this collection is indispensable for any Willie Nelson fan or any lover of great country musicits the first blossoming of one of our greatest songwriters, presented the way work of this stature should be, with great sound and packaging.
