He enjoyed a long career, and when he died in 2014 at the age of 94, he was the oldest living member of the Grand Ole Opry. This collection focuses on the first phase of his career, from his 1949 debut in the country charts through to 1962, when a return to the country Top 10 kicked off another period in the limelight as the country scene continued to evolve. It comprises most of the A and B sides of his singles for Columbia during that time, featuring all his country hits in those years, including the Top 10 successes Inchcountry BoyInch, InchMy Heart's BouquetInch, InchPennies For PapaInch, InchTake An Old Cold 'TaterInch, InchA-Sleepin' At The Foot Of The BedInch, InchHillbilly FeverInch, InchOut Behind The Barn and InchThe Violet And A RoseInch, many of them typical of his quirky novelty style.
