Detailed Description
WALKING THE FLOOR OVER YOU
One of the cornerstone collections of country music, these 8 CDs contain all of Ernest Tubb's recordings for Bluebird and U.S. Decca from 1936 to March 1947. Starting as the protege of Jimmie Rodgers' widow, Ernest Tubb evolved one of the most original and imitated styles in all country music, and - in the process - defined what it was to be a country star. All the great original hits are here in their original versions, Walking the Floor Over You, Blue Eyed Elaine, Tomorrow Never Comes, Soldier's Last Letter, Our Baby's Book, It's Been So Long Darling, Rainbow at Midnight, and many more. The World transcriptions from 1944 and 1945, never reissued to this point, are also included complete.
If anyone was a country music legend, it was Ernest Tubb, and the legend begins here!
Also included is a 40- page book by Tubb's biographer, Ronnie Pugh, and many rare and previously unpublished photos.
