Sid Selvidge The Cold of The Morning
Peabody Records/reissue $16.98

A goodly portion of Robert Gordon’s book, It Came from Memphis, talks about The Bitter Lemon Coffee House as a crucible for young Memphis artists in the late ‘60’s. Sid Selvidge was one of those artists and The Cold of the Morning is about as close as you’ll get to his coffee house set from those days. Recoded with producer, colleague and pal, Jim Dickinson in 1976 and reissued on CD in 1991 the selections run the gamut from field hollers such as Boll Weevil to the Memphis Blues of Furry Lewis (Judge Boushe) to the George M. Cohan penned, tin pan alley song, Then I’ll be Satisfied with Life that Selvidge discovered on a Tiny Tim album.

Sid Selvidge Waiting for a Train
Peabody Records/reissue $16.98

Released in 1982 and reissued on CD in 1991 on the Peabody label, Waiting for a Train showcases Selvidge’s eclectic taste in American music. “The first song I was conscious of as a Child was Tex Ritter’s version of Rye Whiskey,” says Selvidge. Trimmed and Burning is a bow to Bluesman Fred McDowell. Selvidge says, “Lee Baker played slide. I couldn’t figure out why he attacked the guitar with such intensity until, years later, he told me he had had major dental surgery right before the session and had refused any pain killers.”

Twice Told Tales

Released in 1993 this CD is part of the prestigious Elektra/Nonesuch American Explorer series. Among other artists on the series were Jimmy Dale Gilmore, Guy Clark, and Arthur Alexander. Sing-Out Magazine said, “On occasion, most notably on Mississippi Fred McDowell’s version of “Watch and Chain” and on “Buffalo Skinners,” Selvidge achieves a powerful intensity that is downright scary.”
