The Moon Was Blue Cd

The Moon Was Blueshould prove a thirst quencher for those who&#39;ve<br /> long loved Bare&#39;s worldly baritone and mastery of a song. At the<br /> same time, it will be an invitation to the Bare Jr. generation to<br /> discover an artist whom veteran music writer Chet Flippo recently<br /> called one of the most overlooked and underrated in country music<br /> history. Bare was a singer capable of sophisticated hits like<br /> Detroit City or How I Got To Memphis and the subversive humor<br /> of Drop Kick Me Jesus. He befriended and championed the finest<br /> songwriters to ever shake up Nashville, including Kris<br /> Kristofferson and Tom T. Hall. He was among the first Nashville<br /> country artists to embrace Bob Dylan. And he pioneered ideas like<br /> the concept album, dodging the Nashville rules to bring a whole<br /> record of Shel Silverstein songs to life in the classics Lullabys,<br /> Legends & Lies. Often tagged an outlaw in the Waylon and<br /> Willie camp, Bare&#39;s discography actually transcends categories with<br /> a boldly eclectic embrace of American music.
