WELCOME TO LPCDREISSUES
Ace's "Special Country Edition of our long running, best selling "The Golden Age Of American Rock'n'Rollseries (CDCHD 845) surpassed our high expectations and quickly became one of the biggest sellers in the Ace catalogue.We've been consistently asked when we were going to follow it up - and the answer is now.
Our second "Special Country Editionis part of the sister series, "The Golden Age Of American Popular Music, but its appeal is guaranteed to match that of the GAARR variant. Once again we have assembled some of the greatest names in 1950s and 60s country, and some of their biggest Billboard Hot 100 hits of the period, which include some of country music's most beloved songs of all time.
As well as making the Hot 100, all except two of our inclusions made the Billboard Country Top 10, with the vast majority of them peaking within the Top 5.
Beautifully mastered from the best possible sources, and featuring a typical "Golden Agestyle booklet crammed with copious annotation and a host of illustrations, this is a treat for "Golden Agecollectors and fans of vintage country music alike.
