REVIEWS
Average points: 4 (Reviews: 34)
****
Netter Country-Walzer, # 8 in den USA im Sommer 1975.
*****
Erstmals 1959 veröffentlicht, entwickelte sich das herzige "Wasted Days And Wasted Nights" knapp 16 Jahre später als Nachfolger von ""Before The Next Teardrop Falls" zu einem großen Hit in der amerikanischen Hitparade. Dieser große Erfolg war m.E. durchaus gerechtfertigt.

Oh, war mir entgangen, dass dieses Lied auch ein so großer Hit in den Pop-Charts war. Im Country-Sektor war es # 1. Sehr schöne Nummer, durch die eigenwillige Stimme von Freddy Fender markant veredelt.
****
Musikalisch nicht sehr aufregend, aber Freddy's markante Stimme macht das Lied sehr pasabel.
****
"Before The Next Teardrop Falls", war in NL sein erste erfolg im Sommer 1975..... dieser Klassiker (geschreben schon ende 50.Jahren), war danach sein 2.Hit (und Letzte Hit). Hat nicht mehr die Klasse von sein erste Hit.....im Herbst 1975 war es nur auf Platz # 14.
****
▓ Country klasieker van de gisterenmiddag op 69 jarige leeftijd overleden Mexicaanse zanger "Baldemar Huerta" oftewel "Freddy Wender" !!! Hij verwierf faam in Holland met deze "Hit": "Wasted Days and Wasted Nights" uit augustus 1975 (NL Top 40: 6 wk / # 11) en zijn andere grote "Hit" uit juni 1975: "Before The Next Raindrop Falls'' (NL Top 40: 9 wk / # 6) !!! <br><br>"Freddy Fender" begon zijn loopbaan met het uitbrengen van Spaanstalige versies van nummers van "Elvis Presley" en "Harry Belafonte" !!! De zanger won in zijn carrière verscheidene Grammy Awards, de laatste in 1992 !!! <br><br>"Fender was" ook actief als acteur, onder meer in "The Milagro Beanfield War" (1988) onder regie van "Robert Redford" !!! Begin jaren zestig bracht hij bijna drie jaar door in de cel wegens het bezit van hasj !!!<br><br>"Freddy Fender" leed al geruime tijd aan longkanker !!!

Wow, ne coole Stimme hat der Kerl! Der Song ist etwas gar altbacken...

Ja - von denen hat er ja mehr als genug gehabt ;-)

Sehr Gut!

... gut ...<br>
***
Iets minder dan de tranenplaat, maar zeker niet slecht.
****
nicht so übel!
*****
Country-Klassiker sauber gespielt und gesungen....
*
zwak
****
akzeptabler Country-Pop-Titel aus den 70er, gecovert worden von Kurt Ostbahn Kombo (So vü Täg und so vü Nächt) - aufgerundete 3.5…
******
Nice!
****
Ein schöner Oldie.
****
Klingt heute angestaubt, schafft es aber immer noch zu späterer Stunde die Tanzlaunigen auf die Tanzfläche zu bringen. Auf der B-Seite der Titel: "I Almost Called Your Name".
****
Aufgerundete 4!
**
Optisch und musikalisch unterirdisch.<br><br>Sehe ich gerade in einem Musikladen vom 18. September 1976.
***
Stimmt Widmann1 zu; die Stimme des Mannes war ziemlich schwach. In manchen Songs fiel das mehr auf, wie hier, in manchen weniger. Dennoch scheint Freddy Fender damals einige Menschen erfreut zu haben mit seiner Musik. Für mich ist der Song ein typischer Programmfüller in der ARD-Hitnacht.
****
Ein ganz netter Song den man gut nebenbei hören kann
***
Plaatje uit de 70's wat ik nooit zo echt bijzonder vond
****
Knappe vier.
****
gute Country-Nummer<br><br>CDN: #6, 1975<br>USA: #8, 1975
****
Ok pop plaatje voor de country zanger uit Texas.
****
Gehört zu den bekannten Titeln von Freddy Fender. Gute 4+ sind drin.
****
Ganz nett.
****
Kommt in Stephen King's Kurzgeschichte 'Willa' vor.
****
Angenehmer Oldie.
