SALES NOTES

It has been several years since we at Bear Family began our exclusive documentation of David Allan Coe's recordings for during the outlaw era. With all the talk of outlaws in the , Coe was the only true outlaw of the lot, having spent his youth and early 20s in various jails. Now our series is winding up. His records weren't charting as before, but the quality never lets up.

The final in our series, A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH…PLUS features David Allan's last LP for Columbia, together with some truly amazing bonus tracks. There's a single that he recorded for Cabut Records in West Virginia waiting for his parole to be up so that he could move to Nashville. The title One Way Ticket To Nashville. There's also his ultra-rare political single, How High's The Watergate, Martha? together with some previously unreleased demos.

Last year, the renegade outlaw turned 65! But he's still on the road, still making impassioned music, and still turning heads. We're proud to be the only company offering a full documentation of his best recordings
