Ernest TUBB PresentsCountry Hoedown
Although Jimmie Rodgers is regarded as the "Father
of Country Music", his premature death at the age of 35 in 1933 meant that the
banner he unfurled had to be waved by others, not least Ernest Tubb - and what a
flag-waver for Country music he proved to be, through fifty years until his
death in 1984. Born in 1914, Tubb did not start playing guitar until aged
twenty, and then proceeded to become a formidable singing and writing talent.
Elected to the "Grand Ole Opry" in 1943, Tubb compered many a show, as well as
fronting his own "Midnight Jamboree" broadcasts from the record shop he started
in Nashville in 1947. With the support of his band, The Texas Troubadours, who
better then to compere this choice Country collection ?
