More Info
• 30 heartbreaking, tearjerking country classics
• And aching array of tragedy and worse from George Jones, Hank Snow, Patsy Cline, Don Gibson, Kitty Wells, Rose Maddox, Eddie Arnold and many more
• A dramatic soap opera of cancelled weddings, divorce, separation, lying, cheating and all that good stuff from relationship management
Featuring a litany of deceit, long lost memories, childhood death, God-fearing pontifications, long lost letters and a bouquet of roses that just can’t help the situation
A depressing cascade of tears for the lonely and broken hearted, the bereft and the begrudging; a fine collection of songs that could make any grown man weep
With lesser known country icons including Goldie Hill, Texas Ruby and hillbilly legend Ray Pressley along with a aide of duets from Hank Snow And Anita Carter, Wilma Lee And Stoney Cooper and Joe Maphis And Rose Lee
Remastered from a pile of tear drenched 45s, with sleeve notes from an angst-ridden Dave Henderson of MOJO magazine
