    From 1948 until the 1960s, Dallas's Big "D" Jamboree stage and radio show was the region's Grand Ole Opry, offering local favorites and major stars every Saturday. Unlike the conservative Opry, the Jamboree's music reflected Texas's more freewheeling sound. Drums and saxophones were common and, from the mid-'50s on, so was rockabilly. Beyond visiting stars (Cowboy Copas, Ferlin Husky, and a youthful Johnny Cash) the show was sustained by house acts like the explosive, sensual Charline Arthur, whose hard-edged vocals anticipated Patsy Cline's. The Jamboree house band's vibrancy can be heard in the hot bass-slapping behind Copas and Hank Locklin that makes their traditional country tunes rock. Hearing Carl Perkins, Warren Smith, Sid King, Gene Vincent, Jerry Reed, and Ronnie Dawson in their youthful rockabilly prime proves yet again that this seminal music had twice the immediacy and primal impact live. Captured in near-flawless monaural, these extraordinary, well-packaged performances (one disc each devoted to country and rockabilly), complete with announcements, introductions, and the odd commercial, summarize a golden era too rarely preserved for posterity. --Rich Kienzle

    Album Description

    This historic double-CD release culminates over 3 years of research on the legendary barn dance that was Dallas version of the Grand Ol Opry. Countless country and rock & roll stars of the 50s got their first taste of performing in front of large audiences on nationally syndicated radio at the Big D, and many of those great live performances are made available here for the first time. Hear Sun Records-era Johnny Cash performing I Walk The Line to an adoring Dallas audience, or marvel at a sizzlin version of Blue Suede Shoes performed by the Carl Perkins band, both captured here in all their early glory. And country fans are sure to enjoy the vintage honky-tonk performances of Cowboy Copas, Ferlin Husky, Hank Locklin and Jimmie Heap, as well as female artists Charlene Arthur, Wanda Jackson and Ramona Reed.

    All in all, this is a must-have time capsule of mid-20th century American roots music thats entirely unique, and apt to start a new trend in the release of other barn dance transcriptions from the period.

    5 out of 5 stars Not Just For Music Historians.......2000-05-03

    It's almost hard to believe all the acts that have fallen between the cracks in Country and Rock history. This stunning collection is a reminder that indeed, Rock and Roll Never Forgets. Besides stellar live cuts from Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash and Gene Vincent are a host of others giving their all on the Southwest version of the Grand Ole Opry and the Louisiana Hayride. Divided in to 2 Discs- Hillbilly and Rockabillies you'll find yourself wondering what happened to names like Charlene Arthur, Sherry Davis, Tommy Mitchell and The Belew Twins. Thankfully the excellent liner notes have info on the whereabouts of these and others. For those of you wondering if the history of Rock has already been written, its collections like these that remind us that there's still a lot to be uncovered.

    5 out of 5 stars A Big 'T' for Talent at Big 'D' Jamboree.......2000-03-28

    "The Big 'D' Jamboree--Live, Volumes 1 & 2," a two-disc collection featuring live recordings by Johnny Cash and Carl Perkins, is a fascinating musical snapshot of the intersection between country music and rock 'n' roll in the 1950s.      Nashville's Grand Ole Opry was the major leagues of country music, but its organizers--like most adults in the '50s--frowned on the upstart rock 'n' roll.      But there was another layer of country music showcases around the nation, one that was more tolerant of young rock performers because the owners saw that the music could lure new fans. Among these minor league operations: the Louisiana Hayride in Shreveport, La.; Town Hall Party in Compton; and the Big "D" Jamboree in Dallas.      Like the Opry itself, several of these "barn dances" were broadcast over radio and/or television, thus offering invaluable experience and exposure for such future Rock and Roll Hall of Fame members as Elvis Presley, Cash, Perkins and Jerry Lee Lewis.      Given rock's rebellious image, it's interesting to see how folksy and polite some of these rockers sound on the Big "D" Jamboree appearances. The shrieks in the background when Perkins sings "Blue Suede Shoes" indicate that lots of young rock fans were on hand, but the tone of the show is very traditional and adult.      Introducing "I Walk the Line," for instance, Cash speaks to the crowd with the same kind of patter you'd expect from a country veteran such as Roy Acuff or Ernest Tubb.      "Thank you very much, friends," Cash says during a show that was probably recorded in 1956. "It's a real pleasure to be here with you all tonight at the Big 'D.' It's always one of our biggest thrills to come to Dallas to play for all the wonderful folks down here . . . and here's our latest on Sun [Records]. We hope you folks will enjoy hearing [it] maybe one more time."      There's a similar exchange when Perkins introduces his signature "Blue Suede Shoes" by calling it a song about "a pair of slippers."      Disc 1--titled "Hillbillies"--features such name acts as Ferlin Husky, Hank Locklin, Cowboy Copas and Leon Payne, as well as such relative unknowns as Charline Arthur, who is described in the liner notes as "a talented country singer, tough and energetic, who not only responded to rockabilly, but in some ways anticipated it." Her two tracks--including one written by Mae Axton, who also co-wrote "Heartbreak Hotel"--are intriguing enough to make a rockabilly enthusiast seek out the compilation of her music on the Bear Family label.      Disc 2--titled "Rockabillies"--offers a variety of cult and hit artists, including Gene Vincent, Warren Smith, Johnny Carroll and Jerry Reed.      Presley isn't featured on the album, which was released by Dragon Street Records, but his presence was so dominant in rockabilly in the middle to late '50s, when these recordings were made, that it's only fitting that three artists perform songs associated with him.      It's also symbolic of the somewhat outcast nature of country music and rock at the time that the Big "D" Jamboree was held at the Sportatorium, a building mostly devoted to pro wrestling. In fact, the musicians performed on the same mat that the wrestlersused.      In the liner notes, album producer David Dennard describes how Ed McLemore, who ran the wrestling programs at the Sportatorium, saw the potential of country music in the area and became what Dennard describes as a mini-version of Presley's manager, Col. Tom Parker. McLemore apparently became an important regional music force, "a mini-empire of management, publishing, booking, road shows and artist publicity concerns under his direction."      But the rock 'n' roll sounds that initially helped draw new fans eventually ended up taking audiences away. "I think rock and roll just done us in," Johnny Hicks, a DJ who was associated with the show, recalls in the album booklet. "After all, the generations were changing, the music tastes were changing. It was just one of those things that happened."      While the Big "D" Jamboree lasted, however, it served as an important cultural bridge between country and rock. The music and recording quality are uneven on the two discs, but the spirit of the shows still comes through.

    I was really impressed when I first listened to this cd. Artists you never dreamed of you would ever hear perform live are present on this cd. Great live acts from the fifties by Carl Perkins and other greats. I was especially impressed by the Belew Twins live stuff. Great sound, great quality. If you love rockabilly like I do, go for it!
