Illustrated David Allan Coe: 4 Album

On great value Double CD, The Illustrated David Allan Coe: 4 Classic Albums 1977-1979 by one of the most colourful and talented characters in country music history DAVID ALLAN COE. Tattoo (1977), Family Album (1978), Human Emotions (1978) and Spectrum VII (1979) are four hardcore outlaw country albums Coe recorded for Columbia Records. This collection adds a bonus track from the next Columbia LP, Compass Point (1979). Coe went on to record a further 15 albums during his remarkable 13-year association with Columbia. All Music Guide described him as 'An outlaw's outlaw, the colourful, enigmatic singer-songwriter fused traditional honky-tonk country with no-holds barred rock tude'. Early in his career, the notoriously unpredictable 'bad boy', one-time jail-bird outlaw of country music caused outrage but by the mid-70s he'd become one of Nashville's hottest songwriters Willie Nelson, George Jones and Tammy Wynette covered his songs and both Tanya Tucker's version of 'Would You Lay with Me (In a Field of Stone)' and Johnny Paycheck's version of 'Take this Job and Shove It' were #1 Country hits. Coe's own recordings of both songs appear on this outstanding collection, the high-water mark for outlaw country music. Tattoo is one of Coe's finest recordings, full of stomping honky-tonk playing on 'Just to Prove My Love' plus his deeply moving cover of Mickey Newbury's 'Frisco Mabel Joy'. Other highlights here include 'Human Emotions', 'Mississippi Riverboat Queen', 'Million Dollar Memories', 'Rolling with the Punches' and 'Whole Lot of Lonesome' which he co-wrote with George Jones. Also available on Raven: The Mysterious David Allan Coe: 4 Classic Albums 1974-1978. With 40 tracks of superb audio quality, color booklet and liner notes from the original albums.
