Product Description

Bobby Hebb's "Sunny" (Philips 40365) has captivated generations with its immaculate melody and philosophy to always look at the bright side. Though many have speculated that Hebb wrote the song for God or for his brother and mentor, Hal Hebb, the singer has stated many times the tune is about a "sunny disposition." And though this one title loved by millions led to Bobby touring with The Beatles in 1966 and brought the Hebb name to prominence, the eleven other performances on the album are also of great substance and filled with entertainment value. "Sunny" became a #1 hit in Cashbox Magazine and #2 in Billboard the week of Bobby Hebb's 28th birthday, July 26, 1966. Less than four months later track #7, "A Satisfied Mind", would break the Billboard Top 40. Recorded by hundreds of artists from Vibraphonist Dave Pike to Frank Sinatra & Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Pat Martino, Stan Kenton, Herbie Mann, Frankie Valli, Roger Williams and so many others, the song and this album have a secure place in popular culture. Hearing the composition as interpreted by others is fascinating and a treat, but it is Bobby Hebb's original "Sunny" with backing vocals by his friends Melba Moore, Nick Ashford & Valerie Simpson that endures.

Better than I thought.......2007-03-22

It's a little on the poppy side but still pretty good.Not a lot of grit but there is a certain innocence to it that is appealing. If you like soul that sounds like it was aiming for a white audience, this is your stuff. Three and a half stars.

Amazon.com essential recording

It's hard to believe the Walkabouts have been making records for 15 years. They've built a solid following in Europe, but are almost completely unknown in the states. The sound of their seventh full length release is hard to pin down: traditional country, folk, alternative rock, some R&B touches, all played with an inspired amateurishness, and delivered in the rough, muted vocals of songwriter Chris Eckman and the smooth soprano and cello of Carla Torgerson. These 13 songs are all covers, from the standard title cut, to Patti Smith, Nick Lowe, and Johnny Rivers songs, as well as the Charlie Rich beauty "Feel Like Going Home." Should be a real find for fans of Whiskeytown and Uncle Tupelo. --Roy Francis Kasten

Album Description

Like Yo La Tengo's Fakebook, the Walkabouts' Satisified Mind is a definitive artistic statement masquerading as a loose-knit collection of acoustic covers. Mining the work of diverse artists like the Carter Family, Gene Clark, Mary Margaret O'Hara, John Cale and Nick Cave, Satisfied Mind represents the purest evocation to date of the Walkabouts' aesthetic and its standing at the crossroads of country, rock, folk and punk. Digipak. Glitterhouse Records. 1996.

walkabouts rule.......1999-05-02

The Walkabouts are a classic example of what is right with postmodern music. Smooth, genuine and subversive, they are one of the best unknown bands Seattle has ever produced. Through a bizarre quirk of fate, they have been one of the hottest US bands in Germany - but they are unavailable on any US label.

Satisfied Mind is driving too fast at dawn on Highway 50 in Nevada, 500 miles from nowhere. It's Burning Man on a spring day. It's music for rockclimbing, glassblowing and any activity where the zen moment is in motion. It's very cool.

Classic Country Grunge.......1998-06-12

It appears this record was released in 1996: i guess i bought it the day it was released. It seems as if i have had it forever and yet i NEVER get tired of this masterpiece. I just LOVE the Walkabouts and yet it seems no one has even heard of them! They are the definative band for the category of my own invention : "Country Grunge". This album is the most "country-ish" of their releases i have heard to date. Their rendition of Nick Cave's Loom of the Land beats even the original, in my opinion. Their Robert Forster song The River People is exquisitely beautiful again rivaling the original. (Robert Forster is from this ol' town o' mine). My favourite track is Lover's Crime: i play it over & over & over & . . . . Free Money really gets 'em going DJ'ed live!

Ageless.......2007-05-04

I have heard a lot of Robert Gordon. This album simply amazed me. Every track was a must listen to. I never wanted to skip forward to the next track. Perfect traveling music. I can listen again and again, and find something new everytime. Extremely worth the money!

Real Rockabilly.......2006-08-23

Gordon produces a fantastic album with some songs with a country flair. His voice and choice of songs and musicians only get better with time. Do not make a mistake and not purchase it now.

great stuff. but..........2005-05-04

isn't anyone going to release the soundtrack to THE LOVELESS? way overdue...

At long last ...and in fine form.......2005-03-02

It's been ten years plus since our hero has released an album. If you were slightly dissapointed with his last offering, you won't be dissapointed with this one. Robert's golden voice has mellowed a bit, his taste in picking tunes to cover is uncanny and the backing band is much closer to what we want to hear backing Gordon. Upright bass, vintage rockabilly style guitar, some tasty pedal steel from Fats Kaplin and a great selection of tunes. Lee Hazlewood's "These Boots Are Made For Walking", Quentin Claunch's "Mama's Little Baby", Doc Pomus' "Turn Me Loose" and dig that opening track - the little known Larry Finnegan hit from 1962 "Dear One" is tailor made for Gordon, whose version here eclipses the original. There's shades of Conway Twitty in the country tinged version of Jack Ripley's "Your Angel Steps Out Of Heaven" and the Hollie's "Long Cool Woman" is tailored made for the velvet voice of Gordon. Taste and style is what this album is all about and Gordon delivers in spades. Bravo professor, my compliments to the chef.
