Description:
This album's title is taken from Acuff's most famous song, "Wabash Cannon Ball," which is featured here. Dubbed the "King of Country Music," Acuff helped the genre move from its rawer roots into the polished sound of today. He joined "Grand Ole Opry" in 1938 & proved to be one of its most popular & longest lasting performers. He also established with Fred Rose the famous Acuff Rose music publishing company in 1942. Here are 23 of Roy's best earlier recordings, including "Night Train To Memphis," "Tennessee Waltz," "Honky Tonk Mamas" & others. |
