Great album. The production is quite sparse for a Lee Hazlewood album-I've been spoiled by the incredible string and orchestral arrangements on his almost-cinematic MGM album 'The very special world of...' which probably remains my favourite, it having mapped many visual moments in my mind already. However there is a dryness to the acoustic guitars and tickety bass on this one that screams late 60s-early seventies country, so it has an authentic atmosphere of something classy being produced with very modest means, much like Dylan or Kris Kristofferson at the time. It something you can't fake, and the traditional thunderous reverb on the voice is still very much there. It needs to be played on a good sound system, not in the car or on an MP3, to be appreciated, and like most of Lee's stuff is best enjoyed at dusk with the sun falling over the river or sea and a whisky in your hand. The album is worth it for 'Come on home to me' and 'If its Monday morning' alone in my view, but the spoken intros really tie the whole thing together, and the traditional humour ladled into some of the misery which all Hazlewood fans look for is also present and correct. The man was unmatchable when he was on his game, and he is here.
This Lee Hazlewood album is a concept album about his breakup with an unnamed lady. It is a very sparse album, with only three musicians on it. Each track starts with a brief spoken intro before the song. It's a very good album.
Its hard to believe its been five years since I bought Requiem For An Almost Lady. Even harder for me to believe that its been almost that long since I listened to it! This CD is a remaster of one of the albums Lee Hazlewood made during his sojourn in Sweden, a period when most Americans who knew anything about his music must have assumed that his career had faded into oblivion. Not quite. It was during that period that Hazlewood made some of his quirkiest records but also some of the most memorable. I rate Requiem For An Almost Lady squarely in the middle. There are some very good songs here and nothing terrible. But there is only one I would rate as a Hazlewood classic: Come On Home To Me. Besides that, I also like If It's Monday Morning, L.A. Lady, I'll Live Yesterdays. A lot of the running time is spent on Hazlewood's spoken introductions to the songs. But they are short and to the point unlike the rambling soliloquies Hazlewood delivered before each song on Trouble Is A Lonesome Town. This album must have influenced quite a few alt-rock artists as three songs here made the tribute compilation Total Lee! issued several years ago. If you are a rather strong Lee Hazlewood fan and don't yet own this, then I recommend that you get it before the price skyrockets as it has with some of his other work. Like the CD itself, the insert is rather short and sparse with nothing but a couple pictures, some album information, and a short commentary by Lee himself to enhance your listening experience. Even though I give it only three stars, I find enough to enjoy here to give it an occasional place in the rotation.
Having only heard Lee Hazlewood's way-ahead-of-it's-time concept LP "Trouble Is A Lonesome Town" (1968), I approached this record with something of an open mind - it has quickly become a firm favourite. Picking up the pieces from a failed relationship, Hazlewood's inspired insights delight & depress in equal measure - his cut n' paste countrified jaunts reminiscent of Sun-era Johnny Cash, and even ex-Palace 1990s folk hero Will Oldham. Hazlewood's back catalogue was partly re-released only 2 years ago after renewed interet from members of Sonic Youth. They're not the easiest records to obtain, but long term orders prove worth the wait. To quote Hazlewood, "in the end there was nothing - but believe me, it was no fun waiting for nothing to end". Absurdly good stuff. Invest - and revel in the tortured genius of Lee Hazlewood.
