Editorial Review: Album Description: Listeners familiar with the Charlie Haden's celebrated career may not know of the legendary jazz bassist's early years in country music performing with his family. Charlie Haden Family & Friends: Rambling Boy brings the artist's personal history full circle and presents a new generation of the Haden Family - a legendary Midwest music institution in the 1930s and 1940s, now reborn in the 21st century. Rambling Boy includes songs made famous by the Stanley Brothers, the Carter Family, and Hank Williams alongside fabled traditional tunes and some striking original compositions. The performing cast includes Haden, his wife and co-producer Ruth Cameron, all four of his children (the triplets Petra, Rachel and Tanya Haden, their brother Josh Haden), and his son-in-law Jack Black-- each of whom has his or her own career in music. In addition, Rambling Boy features guest appearances by some of the most illustrious names in contemporary Americana and popular music: Roseanne Cash, Elvis Costello, Vince Gill, Bruce Hornsby, Ricky Skaggs & the Whites, and Dan Tyminski and also includes such illustrious musicians as Jerry Douglas, Sam Bush, Stuart Duncan, Bryan Sutton and more.

 Rating:  - Interesting RecordingI have long been a fan of Charlie Haden's jazz recordings. This recording is interesting and worth having, although I continue to prefer his jazz work. Rating:  - Great I heard Mr. Haden on Terry Grosse being interviewed and I had to have this great CD. It is full of years of talent, and a good variety of styles. I play it more than any CD I have right now. Highly recommend this album. Rating: - Fabulously FolksyCharlie Haden's 'Rambling Boy' lives up to its folksy title. From the spunky start of "Single Girl, Married Girl" to the tender finale of "Oh, Shanendoah," this jazz musician gets downhome with some superb numbers that if anything scotch the reminiscent 'O Brother, Where Art Thou?' soundtrack. Drawing more from folk, country, and bluegrass, Haden showcases a lot of family and friends to truly provide a terrific collection. Rubbing elbows with such illustrious likes as Vince Gill, Bruce Hornsby, ...

If you're a fan of groups such as Charlie Haden, as I am, this will show you what their predecessors sounded like. True roots music. The recording is great, as well. Nary a hiss or pop, which is quite remarkable for recordings of this era. The engineers obviously embarked on a labor of love. The songs and the singers are first rate- this is a sing along CD- grab it and bring ...

It is easy to realize right away that there is lots of talent on this album... and that it was a joy for them to make. I think that energy carries over and can be perceived by the listener. It's a great album to pop in the car stereo while you're driving on a trip and one that is worth re-listening to... because there is a lot to take in. If you're a fan of bluegrass or folk, you will ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
