Duane Eddy- Songs of Our Heritage (CD)
The release schedule for this Duane Eddy reissue was delayed two years because the original multi-track tapes of "Songs of Our Heritage" (released in 1960) could not be found. When it turned up after 43 years, the exciting task of re-creating Duane Eddy's tribute to American classics was started. "Cripple Creek," "Streets of Laredo," "Scarlet Ribbons" are just three of the songs that showed in 1960 how the much-derided rock 'n roll could not only preserve American music but, thanks to the genius of Duane Eddy, also enhance it with new feeling and his up-to-date sensibility. Fans will love the bonus tracks and a brilliant sound never previously heard, as well as the poster inserted as a foldout in the original album.
Tracklist:
- Cripple Creek
- Riddle Song
- John Henry
- Streets of Laredo
