Jimmie Rodgers I highly recommend you buy this cd. If you love Jimmie Rodgers you will love this album (CD).
Great find, especially for confirmed fans
Next check out his skillful renditions of folk songs (his strongest format). Before buying this, you first should hear one of the compilations of Jimmie Rodgers' biggest hits. Doing so will make you a confirmed fan, if you're not already familiar with his work. #1 BALLADS is a collection of beautiful, but slow-tempo melodies popular during the late 1950s. This selection of cover versions has been out of print since the early '60s. TV FAVORITES place Rodgers in a big band setting, typical of variety show orchestras of that era. Many thanks to Westside label for their commitment to reissue Rodgers' complete catalog of Roulette label recordings. Let's hope his work for Dot and A&M labels also receive equal attention.
