Album Description
Recorded Live in 1989, this CD/DVD set documents the Osborne Brothers performance in Streekermoor, Germany. Only minimal overdubs and editing were possible, however, after two years of remastering efforts by Sonny Osborne and mastering engineer John Eberle, the final product has been vastly improved over the original master tapes. At the time the Brothers were touring with Bill Monroe and the Bluegrass Boys. The liner notes describe in detail some of the experiences of touring with Monroe as well as the arduous mastering process. Live in Germany is a must-have recording for fans as it shows the Osborne Brothers at their peak and is one of the only live recordings available.Customer Reviews:
The Osbornes having fun with their music in Germany in July, 1989.......2007-04-04
At the time, the Osbornes' band also included Terry Eldredge (guitar, vocals), Terry Smith (bass), and Steve Thomas (fiddle). Thomas, Eldredge and Smith would've joined up with them about 1988, a year before this tour. From Indiana, Terry Eldredge had previously played with Lonzo & Oscar, and he was appearing on the Grand Ole Opry before he was even old enough to vote. Terry's tenure with The Osborne Brothers spanned the period from 1988-2000. He'd began with them as their bass player but switched to guitar when Terry Smith joined up. The 1981 Virginia State Fiddle Champ Steve Thomas had previously played with Del McCoury's Dixie Pals, Jim & Jesse, Lost & Found, and The Whites. He was with The Osborne Brothers from 1988-91. Besides hearing all their classic favorites like Kentucky, Listening to the Rain, Georgia Mules and Country Boys, Midnight Flyer, Tennessee Hound Dog, and Rocky Top, the show offers a number of special treats for fans. I especially enjoyed twin fiddles (Sonny and Steve) on "Your Love is Like a Flower," an 8-minute jamgrass version of "Nine Pound Hammer," Terry Smith's lead vocals on "Blue Ridge Cabin Home," and Terry Eldredge's lead vocals on three numbers (Muddy Bottom, If I Should Wander Back, Listening to the Rain).
In 2004, the audio and video for the 1989 show were brought to the attention of Sonny Osborne and the owner of the Pinecastle label, Tom Riggs. Rather than allow the show to be sold to the Bear Family label and put out without editing and mastering, Sonny and Tom decided to work with the raw products that had been recorded on a one-track tape machine and grainy video camera. Considerable work was needed to make this 2-CD and DVD set ready for marketing. While it still leaves a little to be desired, kudos to all those involved (like John Eberle who did the mastering) to make this a viable product. Charlie Cushman and Terry Smith overdubbed rhythm guitar and bass. Fiddler Glen Duncan was called in to fix a spot in "Nearer My God To Thee." You get the idea. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like much could be done with the video, but it still captures the energy and excitement of a live Osborne Brothers show. Although the liner notes only indicate that there are ten cuts on the DVD, it actually has 30 tracks with almost all of the songs included. I'm not sure why there is this discrepancy between the CD jacket and actual video. The DVD even includes some songs that aren't listed on the CDs such as Nine Pound Hammer, Say Ol' Man, My Favorite Memory, and Rock of Ages.
Sonny's liner notes state "that this live show is so typical...we always tried to have fun with our music...enjoy ourselves and one another." I understand that this is just the first of several unreleased Osborne Brothers recordings that Pinecastle will put out in the future. I certainly look forward to seeing and hearing what else they find in the archives. (Joe Ross, staff writer, Bluegrass Now)

The Standard.......2003-11-18
Folks, Manhattan Transfer cuts live and in studio, in general, are some of the most robotic and undynamic tracks out there. They have great technical skill and some complex arrangements. That's all. Listening to more than a couple songs at a sitting makes me want to fill my ears with cotton. The same can be said about New York Voices (Manhatten Transfer Lite). Hey, let's sing perfect disharmonious chords with some interesting resolutions--all with the same rhythm, phrasing, dynamics and words. Both groups are extremely monophonic, which ultimately makes for a boring listen.
The *only* vocal jazz group I have ever heard that holds a candle to The Real Group is Lambert, Hendricks, and Ross. They are not in the same category as The Real Group (NYV and MT aren't really in the same category as TRG either, since Real Group is completely a cappella, and save some exceptions, NYV and MT aren't). Lambert, Hendricks, and Ross are supreme soloists, with some of the greatest live-recorded scats ever put on track. Throw in Swingin' Till the Girls on their compilation CD or live CD and check out what happens 45 seconds into the track. Wow. Their small swing band musicians, who they hand-picked, play some incredible stuff. Songs like Cloudburst (which NYV tried to duplicate but couldn't) and other classics will always be associated to the LHR recordings. The group's weakness? Their dynamics and blend are not as good as The Real Group's (nor should they be). They couldn't do songs completely a cappella without losing their kick because of the nature of the group--3 people. If they had 2 more members, we'd have a different story. Even then, they wouldn't have the same sensitivity to dynamic as The Real Group does.
It says something when Jon Hendricks actually WRITES the liner notes to The Real Group's "Unreal!" (Other reviewers may not be aware of this.) It also says something when he writes, "I wish I were in this group." When the best of the best expresses this kind of compliment, what does it say about the group?
The scatting of TRG and LHR is not the same, nor should it be. In group vocal jazz, scatting is secondary. The primary concern of an a cappella vocal jazz group is being able to structure complex arrangements around extremely controlled group dynamic without losing pitch or rhythm without the aid of a band. Jon Hendricks realizes this, as well as most other people who are actually involved in the vocal aspect of ensemble jazz. It is the goal of an a cappella jazz group to *not* be completely tight; doing so would make the phrasing stiff. ANYONE that listened to the Real Group's first album, Debut, would realize this. The recording was basically live in-studio, and has MT's type of tightness and technical bravado. The result? A boring listen! Basically TRG put out an album of MT's skill as their debut album. What they can do now, well over 15 years later, is sublime.
Now, each member of TRG sings as a soloist, with the dynamics of an ensemble. Their phrasing is much more loose. This is what makes the recording have no peers. Every cut, from Splanky to Den Lyssnande Maria is gold. What this group can do without the help of a band is unparallel. Listen to the countertenor and soprano in Strawberry Fields: they just hang notes in the air, each with their own dynamic, creating an incredible bed of sound while the alto sings the melody. Likewise, listen to how the alto, tenor, and countertenor intertwine their parts in Waltz for Debby. Listen to how they are all able to change tempo and volume together [especially when the bass is singing lyrical harmonies and not providing rhythm (e.g. When I Fall in Love and Den Lyssande)] while still remaining tight. Listen to the timbre of the bass when he IS providing rhythm. Check out the soprano's faux trumpet. Check out how the countertenor and alto's parts are intertwined. Listen to how the tenor glues the harmonies together. This stuff isn't easy to do kids. In fact, it has *never* been done before with this kind of skill up to this point.
They prove that it doesn't just happen in the studio.......2003-05-30
Their intonation, ensemble, and clarity are truly remarkable. For those who have never heard of them, even though they are from Sweden, their English is impeccable. There is a fine range of repertoire here, from the dreamy "When I Fall in Love", the almost ethereal "Round Midnight", to the jazzy "Splanky", to the tongue-in-cheek "Good Bait". Their rendition of "Strawberry Fields" is surprisingly authentic; you might even like this one better than the Beatles. (Well, maybe not...)
Quality Vocal Jazz.......2002-08-23
Musically, the group is fairly impeccable (especially considering this is live). The soprano can be a little bit of an earful at times, but overall the the quartet balances fairly well (although I wish the bass was louder) and they swing very well together. It's great to hear fresh, new arrangements and beautiful phrasing/dynamics. The scatting leaves something to be desired, but the best scatters are always solo, not in vocal ensembles.
"There Will Never Be Another You" and "Night and Day" are two great standards on the album. I'd go as far as to say they're the best two tracks. The group also pulls off decent versions of Bill Evans' "Waltz for Debby" and Monk's "Round Midnight". For fans of the Basie Orchestra, they pull off a sweet version of Hefti's arrangement of "Lil' Darlin'", along with a less impressive "Splanky".
For fans of Manhattan Transfer, the Real Group is (a) not as over-produced, (b) not as tight, and (c) Live on this album, so be prepared for a slightly grittier and less smooth sound. On the whole, I'd say that's a blessing as I feel like Manhattan Transfer has pretty much stagnated over time. Still, no one can beat MT (except Lambert/Hendricks/Ross of course) at Vocalese... but this album by the Real Group is as damn good as it could be without Vocalese.
Wonderful! Couldn't possibly be better!.......2002-02-17
More specifically, their arrangements are all very fresh and their dynamic contrast is as good as it gets. As close as I listen, I can't hear any mistakes. They are well arranged and rigorously rehearsed and it shows. This album is a treat. It's no wonder nobody yet (as of 2/16/02) has given any of their albums anything less than 5 stars.
You'll note that their arrangement of Night and Day is a full five minutes of swing. That's probably my favorite... at least today.

A brilliant quartet in a rare live recording.......2002-11-08
From the opening "Birdland," you can feel the energy and enthusiasm of the crowd. Almost every song here has been featured elsewhere, but not with the electricity here. Take "Jeannine," for example - one of their standards. Only here do we get the long, intricate improvisations that the singers added in live performances, totally trumping their studio version.
The early gospel-inflected hit "Operator" falls near the end of the program, and it's stunning - again with greater passion that makes the original track sound tame. Janis Siegel's voice is in soaring form, but all four musicians sound superb; either individually or together, they really know how to sing.
Deep thanks is due to Rhino for acquiring this treasure, and releasing it with their usual high production values. The Manhattan Transfer have produced some fine recordings, but I would never have imagined that such a vibrant document of their live performances existed. For fans of the group, or fans of fine jazz singing in general, it's an unexpected gift.
