Dim Lights, Thick Smoke And Music

Country & Western Hit Parade 1956-1960

G After the volumes covering 1945-1955 were released, the word was out. This series is definitive, fabulously packaged, and faultlessly remastered! Everything you'd expect from BEAR FAMILY …and more! G , who produced , , , , and many others, said, "This is the best country series of all time. No doubt. No question." Robert Hilburn in the 'Los Angeles Times' said, "An invaluable album project… enables fans to step back in time and just like , , and did." G Now the story continues from 1956 until 1960. Every CD is generously full. Every booklet is extensive and chocked full of rare photos and illustrations, as well as complete stories behind the songs! G In addition to the hits, the series contains rarities that went on to influence … and all music… in the years ahead, like Wanda Jackson's original version of Silver Threads And Golden Needles, 's original Lonely Street, and ' influential Walk, Don't Run. G This series is designed to introduce new listeners to the very best that country music has to offer… while keeping longtime fans entertained. Every volume is a fabulous time capsule.

INFORMATION Here's the story. For many years, we'd received requests to do a truly definitive country series, but it wasn't until the success of our year-by-year R&B/Soul series, 'Blowin' The Fuse' (now 'Sweet Soul Music' and soon to be continued into the Funk era) that we decided we needed to do something comparable for country music. The first volumes of 'Dim Lights, Thick Smoke And Hill- billy Music' took us from 1945-1955, and now the story continues into the era of the Sound. The series has been compiled with today's fans in mind. Sure, the big hits are there, but so are the classic performances that we- ren't necessarily hits , but became influential in the years ahead. Every volume has incredibly detailed behind-the- scenes stories, fabulously rare photos, and an ongoing history of country music set against the backdrop of the broader American music business. The booklets alone are 72 pages! Definitive? You bet! Superlatives are often overused, but we feel that this series is part of our mission to bring this incredible music to new fans... as well as entertaining older fans. We pick up the story in 1956... just as country music was coming to terms with the upset of rock 'n'roll!
