WELCOME TO LPCDREISSUES
This hugely important 1940s hillbilly brother act has never been previously represented on CD.
Like their label mates the Delmore Brothers (already represented in Aces “King Acetates Series”) the Detroit-born and-based Yorks were an abiding influence on all the close harmony country acts who came up in their wake - especially the Everly Brothers, who later recorded the Yorks Long Time Gone on their “Songs Our Daddy Taught Us” album.
As well as the optimum straight from the studio floor sound quality that we strive to provide throughout this series, were also delighted to give no less than 10 of these recordings their worldwide debut after nearly 60 years in acetate limbo.
Fully detailed sleeve notes by King hillbilly expert Dave Sax and a host of rare pictures and record label shots make this yet another essential addition to the every-expanding number of R&B and hillbilly CDs from Syd Nathans King label. Watch for further releases as 2006 progresses.
