Tennessee Ernie FORD – His Original & Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 – The Shot-Gun Boogie

As far as JASMINE is concerned, you can't have too much Tennessee Ernie Ford in the catalogue. Even fifty plus years after he first entered a commercial recording studio, his songs shout "Class"! In fact, it was a deliberate choice which made his JASMINE CD "The Real Thing!" on JASMCD 3501 the first issue in the Country series, and a continuing pleasure to issue "Tennessee Ernie Meets The Girls" some while later on JASMCD 3518, both incidentally studio recordings made for radio. Now we have the pleasure in exploring the actual records which first brought Tennessee Ernie to the attention of a wider audience, in the USA and beyond.

Also Available By Tennessee Ernie Ford JASMCD3501, JASMCD3518, JASMCD3573.
