Jerry Jeff Walker: Five Years Gone (LP, 180g colored Vinyl, Ltd.)
Jerry Jeff Walker war ein amerikanischer Country- und Folk-Sänger und Songwriter. Er war eine führende Figur der progressiven Country- und Outlaw-Country-Bewegung und wurde vor allem durch den Song "Mr. Bojangles" aus dem Jahr 1968 bekannt. Die späten 60er und frühen 70er Jahre waren eine interessante Zeit, in der eine Reihe von langlebigen Singer-Songwriter-Alben veröffentlicht wurden, und dieses Album ist ein Paradebeispiel dafür.
Ursprünglich 1969 veröffentlicht, ist Five Years Gone" ein zukunftsweisendes Album, das mehr im Folk und Folk-Rock der späten 60er Jahre als im populären Country verwurzelt ist. Die poetischen, aber manchmal obskuren Texte sind eher Bob Dylan als irgendeiner Nashville-Tradition zu verdanken. Für dieses Album wurde Jerry Jeff Walker von einigen Nashville-Schwergewichten unterstützt, darunter Weldon Myrick, Hargus "Pig" Robbins und Charlie McCoy.

Gettin' By
Ronald Crosby had already become Jerry Jeff Walker by the time he left New York for Austin and left Atlantic Records for MCA, but it was in Austin and on MCA that he became who he felt Jerry Jeff Walker was destined to be. "I'm a Texan," he told the 'New York Times.' "Some of me is still nestled up there in the Catskill Mountains; the summers I spent with my grandfather on the farm, and the guys I played basketball with in high school. But then that was it. High school ended, and Ron Crosby ended and Jerry Jeff began. Texas is where I found my musical self." In Texas, he channeled the lives of the people around him into songs that made people outside Texas feel they knew a place that maybe only exists in spirit. Gettin' By is the self-explanatory credo of the new Jerry Jeff Walker.
Some four years before Waylon ensured that everyone knew about Luckenbach, Jerry Jeff was recording there in the old dance hall that was one of the few remaining buildings. On weekends, its population increased from one person to several hundred and it became the Texas Hill Country's Fillmore. Walker's producer, Michael Brovsky, a former member of (believe it or not) the Serendipity Singers, embraced the idea of going to Luckenbach, and opened the doors for ventilation. The baffles were hay bales. The album cover gave the impression that 'Viva Terlingua!' was a live LP recorded on August 18, but in fact the sessions were spread over two weeks, finishing with a concert that day, Most of the LP was live without an audience. Even most of the songs were written after arrival. As Willie Nelson's harmonica player, Mickey Raphael, said, "It was a good time for everybody to hang out, because, if we all had different jobs with different people, we'd be out on the road separately. So, this kind of brought other musicians that were friends that didn't get to play together a lot." Gettin' By took a good-natured potshot at MCA Records president Mike Maitland, who was leery of underwriting the project, especially as Walker had barely delivered anything like a hit in years:
Last week I was thinking, it's record time again
And I could see Mike Maitland pacing his floor
Ah Mike, don't you worry, something's bound to come out
Besides, I've been down this road once before
