The Very Best of Dickey Betts: 1973-1988 Bougainvilleas Call

Mention the name DICKEY BETTS and the words "no introduction necessary" come to mind. Raven Records presents for the first time on CD Bougainvillea's Call: The Very Best Of Dickey Betts 1973-1988, 17 tracks and 77 minutes of powerful, emotional music and truly astonishing guitar playing and singing. Best known for his work with the legendary Allman Brothers Band, Betts also pursued a productive and successful solo career. This multi-label collection, culled from four solo albums, two Various Artists sets and the Allman Brothers' classic Ramblin' Man (#2), is a 'must-have' for any fan of Southern roots music. From the unique blend of country and bluegrass of his debut Highway Call (1974), through the loose bluesy drive and sure-footed country-rock of Dickey Betts & Great Southern (1977) and the deep-fired Southern boogie and New Orleans soul-rock of Atlanta's Burning Down (1978) on to the blistering guitar attack of Pattern Disruptive (1988), this remarkable multi-label compilation displays Betts at his absolute best. Throughout his guitar playing is the main attraction: ringing and biting, yet always melodic, soulful and heartfelt.
