This CD continues the series of Bear Family’s mid-priced releases exploring East Tennessee’s influential 1920s-era location recording sessions.Follow-up album to the Independent Music Award-winning 2019 single-CD ‘Tell It To Me: Revisiting The Johnson City Sessions, 1928-1929’ ( (BCD17591).‘We Shall All Be Reunited: Revisiting The Bristol Sessions, 1927-1928’ casts new light on an old story - that of the 1927 Bristol sessions. Conducted by Victor Records A&R producer Ralph Peer, this seminal event from the early years of commercial recording in the 1980s was nicknamed ’’the Big Bang of Country Music,’’ while the city in which the event occurred - Bristol, Tennessee/Virginia - was officially dubbed “the Birthplace of Country Music.” Featuring 15 key recordings made in Bristol during late July and early August 1927 - including first-ever recordings by the now-legendary Carter Family and Jimmie Rodgers as well as recordings by several important early country musicians, including Ernest Stoneman, Henry Whitter, Blind Alfred Reed, and others – ‘We Shall All Be Reunited’ revisits and reinterprets that 1927 event. To provide a holistic portrayal of Peer’s recording work in Bristol, this album includes 11 stand-out selections - including several classic recordings of old-time and gospel music by such musicians as Uncle Eck Dunford, Ernest Phipps, and Alfred Karnes - from Peer’s overlooked but equally worthy October and November 1928 recordings in Bristol. The album was produced by Ted Olson (producer of ‘The Bristol Sessions, 1927-1928: The Big Bang of Country Music’, Bear Family Records’ Grammy-nominated 2011 boxed set), ‘We Shall All Be Reunited’ features new liner notes written by Olson in which the 1927 sessions are reassessed based on recent scholarly research and discussion. The liner notes recount what happened in Bristol, who participated in the sessions, and why those recordings were historically significant, but also how that event was romanticized and distorted by myth, hyperbole, and hype. To contextualize the 1927 Bristol sessions the liner notes for ‘We Shall All Be Reunited’ explore ’’the rest of the story’’—the related cultural occurrences all-too-often ignored or marginalized during mainstream public discussions about the Bristol sessions. In his liner notes, Ted Olson tells the real story of the Bristol sessions - a story that proves to be much more interesting than that told in the popular ‘Big Bang’/’Birthplace’ myth.
