REVIEW “Rose Maddox is finally getting her due for paving the way for female singers through her work with The Maddox Brothers and Rose which took place years before Kitty Wells achieved fame. Based in California, the band, consisting of Rose, her brothers and a few sidemen, played intense, fiery music that anticipated rockabilly a decade before it emerged. The Maddox Brothers & Rose Volume 2 America’s Most Colorful Hillbilly Band (Arhoolie 437) consists of 30 songs, 23 from the band’s postwar recordings for Four Star Records, seven from acetates of unreleased performances. This set complements Volume 1, assembling more of this seminal West Coast music. Even on ballads like ‘No One Will Ever Know’ Rose’s vocal intensity is unbelievable. The material here is equally intense, featuring Fred Maddox’s slapping bass and throbbing lead guitar from Roy Nichols and other sidemen. The band fairly burns out on gutbucket numbers like ‘Texas Guitar Stomp,’ a psychotic demo recording of ‘Cherokee Maiden’ and ‘New Mule Skinner Blues’ (which was listed on Volume 1, but, due to a programming mistake, not included). Sound problems are absent due to George Morrow’s excellent remastering of this set.”(Country Music) |
