Various Artists - Greatest Country Hits Of 1962 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]
About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Country
- Description: This continues the series of 4-CD sets which comprises selected annual collections of the biggest US country hits of each year. This great-value 110-track collection covers the year of 1962, during which time Billboard published a Top 30 which changed it's name during the year from Hot C&W Sides to Hot Country Singles, and it comprises every record which appeared in the Top 15 of that chart during the year. Despite the fact that the pop landscape had been transformed over preceding years by rock 'n' roll and it's aftermath, and was about to undergo another upheaval with the British Invasion, the charts still had a familiar look about them for country fans, with many traditional established country stars well-represented, like Webb Pierce, Porter Wagoner, Kitty Wells and Hank Snow, although the smoother Nashville sound certainly characterised many of the hits and there was more than a smattering of crossover artists who enjoyed big crossover hits, not least Leroy Van Dyke's long-running No. 1 InchWalk On ByInch. Other big winners during the year with multiple hits were George Jones, Patsy Cline, Marty Robbins, Jimmy Dean, Jim Reeves, and there were some hot new kids on the block like Buck Owens, Willie Nelson and Johnny Tillotson, along with some collectable obscurities among the one-hit wonders. It's a fascinating and entertaining musical snapshot of the country scene during a dynamic era, and with an in-depth 12,000+ word booklet with background notes on every record, it gives a solid overview of the most popular country music of the yea Album Tracks 1. Leroy Van Dyke - Walk on By 2. Jimmy Dean - Big Bad John 3. Patsy Cline - Crazy 4. Ray Price - Soft Rain 5. Bobby Edwards - You're the Reason 6. Jim Reeves - Losin' Your Love 7.

Limited vinyl LP repressing in gatefold jacket. Thriller is the sixth solo studio album by Michael Jackson. It was released by Epic Records on November 30, 1982, as the follow-up to Jackson's critically and commercially successful 1979 album Off The Wall. Thriller explores similar genres to those of Off The Wall, including pop, post-disco, rock and funk. Recording sessions took place on April to November 1982 at Westlake Recording Studios in Los Angeles with a production budget of $750, 000, assisted by producer Quincy Jones. Seven singles were released from the album, all of which reached the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. In just over a year, Thriller became-and currently remains-the best-selling album of all time, with estimated sales of 65 million copies worldwide. It has become the first album ever to be certified 32 times multi-platinum for U.S. sales, marking more than 32 million sales shipped.
