Perfect Bluegrass Gospel

By Foster Corbin TOP 1000 REVIEWERVINE VOICE on June 2, 2010

Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase

Recorded in 1976 and 1977 by the Country Gentleman "Calling My Children Home" is as good as bluegrass gospel gets. There is not a second rate song on this collection. While it is indeed difficult to pick out a favorite, certainly the title song is quite wonderful. Written by Charlie Waller, who usually sings lead local on this album, and sung a capella, "Calling My Children Home" is a sentimental song about a mother who longs for her children who have all moved far away from her-- so technically it is not a gospel song. By the way, the a capella men's group Chanticleer sings this number of their CD "Our American Journey" and raises it to high art. "He shouted as he traveled, "deliverance has come" from "Palms of Victory" will put chills on your spine or make your eyes burn or both. If you are looking for nostalgia, there is "Where No Cabins Fall."

At the time of this recording the group was composed of Charlie Waller, who passed away in 2004; Doyle Lawson who went on to form the group "Quicksilver," which is noted for its gospel recordings, and who may just as likely show up these days as a guest on the radio show "A Prairie Home Companion" as in a singing in a high school auditorium in East Tennessee-- Bill Yates and James Bailey. The Gentlemen are quite good at singing different parts and playing different instruments.Both Lawson on mandolin and Bailey on banjo are outstanding.

These songs harken back to a former simpler time in the rural South-- at least we thought it was simpler-- when life could be hard.Read more ›

The Country Gentlemen do a remarkable job on this album. The vocal harmony is superb. I highly recommend this album to bluegrass music lovers or gospel music lovers.

Great Gospel Album

By Kay Hollon on April 13, 2015

Format: Vinyl Verified Purchase

Loved this Album! Already wrote the seller of it! Very complimentive of the arrival condition and it being new! I'm overly pleased! Doyle Lawson still sings with his group, Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver, that was in this group in 1976, The Country Gentlemen! I'll see his group perform in Canton, GA on April 18, 2015! A Gospel Concert with The Isaacs and John Bowman! It will be a Blessing! I love this Album Calling My Children Home and all the songs on it! Pleased-Pleased!!!

A "MUST HAVE" for those who love Bluegrass Gospel

By A Customer on July 19, 1999

Format: Audio CD

This album marks the beginning of Doyle Lawson's expertise that set the standard for gospel music in the bluegrass style. "A Place Prepared For Me" is a just one example on this album of the things to come from Doyle Lawson's new venture with his own band, Quicksilver.

BEAUTIFUL HARMONIES AND MANDOLIN BREAKS IN TRULY INSPIRING BLUEGRASS GOSPEL MUSIC

By John on March 11, 2011

Format: Audio CD

Although I prefer John Duffey over Charlie Waller as lead singer of the Country Gentlemen, Calling My Children Home is completely filled with beautiful bluegrass gospel music. Every song on Calling My Children Home includes the beautiful harmony and the beautiful mandolinn breaks that the Country Gentlemen always use in order to stylize and distinguish their music. Because each gospel song on Calling My Children Home is so very, very good, the entire cd flows by so quickly and so smoothly until it is time to replay the cd once more. Besides the initial fabulous beauty of hearing this cd, there is also a very precise and a more subtle beauty to this music that one can only fully appreciate after one has listened to this cd repeated times in a row. The Country Gentlemen are an incredibly talented bluegrass band. Although I also highly enjoy the gospel music of Ralph Stanley and the Stanley Brothers, I don't think that any bluegrass band can play truly beautiful bluegrass gospel music as well as do the Country Gentlemen. The sound quality of Calling My Children Home is also excellent, making this cd a very memorable, highly enjoyable, and truly inspiring listening experience. Calling My Children Home has my highest positive recommendation.

John

On a scale of 1 to 10, This CD is a 27!!!

By BLPike@aol.com on January 6, 1999

Format: Audio CD

When it comes to bluegrass or bluegrass/gospel, few can compete with the Country Gentlemen. And when it comes to the Country Gents, few of thier personnel lineups can match the awesome vocal/musicianship talents of Waller/Lawson/Emerson/Yates. This CD, along with the "Award Winning" project featuring the same roster are MUSTS for any fan of bluegrass or bluegrass/gospel.

Great music. Not too twangy. Bought for Calling My Children Home, with other good tunes.

Published on April 7, 2008 by JRSB

The standards by which others follow.

This project, along with "The Model Church" from JD Crowe (who had a little known tenor by the name of Doyle Lawson), set the standard for bluegrass gospel projects. Read more
