Product description

It's All Relative: Tillis Sings Tillis - Tillis, Pam...

Amazon.com

Tribute albums often suffer from a lack of cohesion, but not in this case. That's because the delightful It's All Relative features just one singer--Pam Tillis--and the artist she celebrates just happens to be her father, the legendary singer-songwriter-actor Mel Tillis. Daughter Pam tackles 13 of her dad's songs, some of them famous ("I Ain't Never," "So Wrong"), some of them more obscure ("Violet and a Rose," "Not Like It Was with You"). High-profile guests include Emmylou Harris, Trisha Yearwood, Dolly Parton, the Jordanaires, Delbert McClinton, Marty Stuart, Ray Benson (who produced four tracks), and Papa himself, who helps out on the rousing closer "Come On and Sing." Pam's arrangements are mostly familiar--she does "Burning Memories" in the same honky-tonk shuffle style that Ray Price used on the hit version--but she takes liberties with Price's "Heart over Mind," here done as a heartfelt ballad, and Bobby Bare's "Detroit City," played as an orchestrated, "Ode to Billie Joe"-style folk song. It all hangs together, though, making It's All Relative a success from start to finish. --David Hill

Mel Tillis was a successful country singer, but some of his best known songs were hits for others, including Ruby don't take your love to town, the song that Kenny Rogers and the First Edition took high in the pop charts on both sides of the Atlantic. In paying tribute to her papa by recording some of Mel's songs, Pam omitted Ruby (understandably - it would have been difficult to adapt for a female singer) but she found plenty of other great songs to record.

The most famous song here is Detroit city. Originally an American country hit for Bobby Bare, it became an international pop hit for Tom Jones. My favorite version of this song is by Dolly Parton - it first appeared on her 1980 album 9 to 5 and odd jobs - but Pam's version is also brilliant.

Dolly herself joins Pam for an emotional cover of Violet and a rose - a song which was an American country hit for Wanda Jackson as well as for Mel himself.

Other celebrity guests include Ray Benson (of Asleep at the wheel) who was also the record producer, Emmylou, Delbert McClinton, Marty Stuart, Rhonda Vincent and Trisha Yearwood.

Of the other songs, I ain't never (Webb Pierce), So wrong (Patsy Cline, Honey open that door (a song I first heard on a Ricky Skaggs album), Mental revenge and Burning memories are perhaps the best known.

This is an exceptional album, the most traditional-sounding that Pam has ever recorded. Pam established her career via contemporary country, but this album shows where her roots are.

As I don't live in the USA (I live in South Africa) I am not familiar with the music of Mel Tillis. The music on this CD is all new to me with the exception of SO WRONG which is on a Patsy Cline CD of mine.
I have this CD for a few months now and bought other country CD's from Amazon since this one but if I catch myself I have Pam Tillis in my cd player again and again and again.
All the tracks are great and I recommend this CD to music lovers, those people who loves wonderful songs, great production and a stunning voice.

It is a wonderful CD, we , in my family all love the song, especially, So Wrong. She does an outstanding job on it, and of course i love Mel, as always, and have for years. They both have outstanding sounds and songs. Wilma E. Pitts

Pam really has a beautiful voice and it shows more on the balads....So wrong is just unbelievable and it puts her into a whole new catagory.....and if you haven't seen the video - Then you MUST. It is the absolute best. I really wish Pam would do more of this type of music and I really don't understand why she doesn't. She certainly has the voice for it..Actually I would love to hear a whole album from Pam of standards. Come on Pam - give us more.

This is by far the best Tribute album Ive ever heard. Pam does her Dad proud.

I was hoping this album was more like the way the great Mel Tillis had recorded the songs she covered. Burning Memories was the best song on the album !! Pam Tillis is still a great singer just the same.

Good CD. Nice music but not my favourite style. I like the more bouncy style as in numbers like Mi vida loca. Still a good listen.
