The Wilburn Brothers - Collection 1954-62 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The Wilburn Brothers were a popular and successful country duo whose chart career spanned fifteen years, during which they had more than fifteen hits in the Billboard country charts. Hailing from Arkansas they had a high profile as child performers, appearing as The Wilburn Children on The Grand Ole Opry when they were about ten years old. They were regulars on The Louisiana Hayride before being drafted to serve in the Korean War, after which they returned to music and toured with Faron Young and Webb Pierce until signing to Decca in 1954. This great-value 59-track 2-CD set comprises most of their A & B sides for Decca during this era, plus selected titles from their albums InchTeddy And DoyleInch, InchSide By SideInch, InchLivin' In God's CountryInch, InchThe Big HeartbreakInch, InchSingInch & InchCity LimitsInch.
