In the 1970’s, Vince Gill recorded
for RCA with three top 10 hits to his credit, before finally making the
big commercial breakthrough in 1990 with When I Call Your Name for MCA.
One of those top 10 hits was the rhythmic Oklahoma Borderline,
the title song of this 2-CD set that for the first time collects all of
Vince’s 29 RCA recordings in one collection and also features the added bonus
of duet recordings with Sara Evans, Tammy Wynette, Brad Paisley and Pam Tillis
on which he guested. During the time of these RCA recordings his reputation in
the music business was such that he attracted major stars like Emmylou Harris,
Bonnie Raitt, Rodney Crowell, Rosanne Cash and Herb Pedersen to sing on his
recordings – all of which are included in this 35 track album.
The collection was compiled by journalist Alan Cackett who
in 2008 received the Wesley Rose International Media Achievement Award -
the highest available in the industry for those working outside the United
States. Mr Cackett launched Britain’s first Country Music magazine, Country
Music Monthly. In 2002 he founded the highly successful Maverick Magazine.
He became and was inducted as the 47th Member of the British Country Music
Hall of Fame. Visit his website alancackett.com
Alan shares: I am delighted that OKLAHOMA BORDERLINE, a 2-CD set
by VINCE GILL that I compiled and wrote the liner notes, will be released by
HumpHead Records on July 26. For the first time all of the recordings that
Vince made for RCA Records between 1983-89, prior to his international
breakthrough when he signed with MCA Records, have been collected in one
package. This includes his If It Weren’t For Him, duet with Rosanne Cash, plus
other excellent, but sadly little known gems like Oh Carolina, Losing Your
Love, the Radio and Victim Of Life’s Circumstances. Among the back-up singers
on these 29 tracks you’ll hear Emmylou Harris, Rodney Crowell, Bonnie Raitt,
Sweethearts of the Rodeo and Herb Pedersen. In addition we’ve added a few
recordings that Vince guested on including tracks with Pam Tillis, Brad
Paisley, Sara Evans and Tammy Wynette.
“Not a bad track on this compilation, absolutely splendiferous” – Brian Clough CMA International Broadcaster 2009/ American Connection Radio Show
