zzcountrysoulsisters2_101b.jpg

The tough, but tender ladies of 60s and 70s country music – sweet, soaring and soulful tunes from a bunch of women who'd eventually crossover to mainstream superstardom – and others who are mostly beloved these days to us vintage honky tonk and country soul diggers! The Country Soul Sisters series does terrific job of highlighting the strains of soul and county-fied funk rumbling underneath so many great 60s and 70s Nashville productions – something we've tried to convince folks of for years – and beyond doing us that cultural solid, it's a straight-up fantastic batch of groovy music. Vol 2 is even better than the first – with tunes by Dolly Parton, Jeannie C Riley, Loretta Lynn & Conway Twitty, Tammy Wynette, Bobbie Gentry, Jean Shepard, Kitty Wells and many more! Includes Includes "Little Town Square" by Jeannie C. Riley, "Color Him Father" by Linda Martell, "The Bargain Store" by Dolly Parton, "My Baby Walked Right Out On Me" by Wanda Jackson, "Okolona River Bottom Band" by Bobbie Gentry, Linda Ronstadt's country chanteuse take on Dylan's "Baby, You've On My Mind", "I'm Alone" by Jean Shepard, "Your Ole Handy Man" by Jan Howard, "I Never Said I Love You" by Barbara Mandrell, "If I Can't Be Your Woman" by Lynn Anderson and more.
