NOT the original (popular) cut of Indian Reservation, June 9, 2005
This review is from: All the Hits Plus More: The Next Chapter (Audio CD)
Just so you know... this is a country flavored CD, not what you may be expecting as the original pop cut of Indian Reservation.
I wish I had known this before buying, but just in case it's important to you, you know now.

Strong country collection, November 28, 2004
This review is from: All the Hits Plus More: The Next Chapter (Audio CD)
After Don Fardon had a country hit with John D Loudermilk's Indian Reservation, the song was recorded by The Raiders and reached number 2 on the Billboard charts in 1971. This album contains Fardon's original plus a remixed dance version of the magnificent song.
Jodie's Song is a great lilting number with prominent fiddle and gripping chorus whilst Brown Eyed And Blue is a lovely ballad and Gone Country is a prime example of the country story song. Who's That Man is a poignant example of the divorce song and the uptempo Good Woman's Love with its joyful piano lines tells the story of true love found and kept.
The rock song Belfast Boy reminds me of Van Morrison in its vocals and arrangement, whilst the bouncy Losing You has strong pop appeal. The tuneful Caught In The Crossfire of Love has a lively instrumental mix with rolling piano and amazing fiddle flourishes.
Cocktail Bar Blues is a funny drinker's anthem that mentions an impressive list of drinks in three minutes, followed by the yearning road song Fear Of Losing You. This pleasant album that contains a varied selection of melodic songs with all the familiar country themes concludes with a flowing dance mix of Indian Reservation.
