	Harley Allen (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The son of Red Allen, who made his mark as a lead singer and also the baritone singer with The Osbourne Brothers, Harley first gained notice as a musician and singer, making his recording debut with his father and brothers on Allen Grass in 1970.
		Allen had noticed early on that his father wrote a lot of his own songs, and he began to make a name for himself as a songwriter with cuts by Linda Ronstadt and The Trio (Ronstadt, Dolly Parton and Emmylou Harris).
		In his transition from bluegrass to country, Harley Allen, the son of grass great, Red Allen, matches the emotional intensity of the former with the storytelling earthiness of the latter.

	Bluegrass - Red Allen w. Frank Wakefield (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Red Allen fared better, because he was one of the finest bluegrass singers and acoustic guitarists, though surprisingly, he is absent in many of the current histories and record books of bluegrass.
		This CD is essentially a reissue of Red Allen's influential 1964 album "Bluegrass", plus six never released songs and a variety of cuts from four later Folkways albums by Allen, one of bluegrass most underrated musicians.
		Allen's best work was with Frank Wakefield (they were known as the Kentuckians) and while both would go on to other things, their collaboration, cantankerous and short-lived as it was, produced some fine recordings.

		Recorded for Victor '29--30 as 'Henry Allen Jr and his Orchestra' because his father led a well-known New Orleans brass band; came to wider attention with Luis Russell's band '29--32.
		(Four CDs of early tracks to '37 on Collector's Classics were remastered by Davies.) Allen was underrated, partly because he was perceived as a follower of Armstrong; in fact he was a link between New Orleans and later jazz: he 'splayed his solos across the bar lines, as sophisticated rhythmically as Hawkins was harmonically...
		His singing was also innovative: on 'The River's Takin' Care Of Me' he is not mugging, but recomposing the tune, his 'pokerfaced humour' helping him get away with it (this was when jazz had to be entertainment as well as avant-garde music).
