Country music singer-songwriter, Stonewall Jackson's rise to fame is the stuff of legend. As he tells it, he drove his pickup into Nashville with a bale of hay in the back, noticed his motel was right opposite the offices of the foremost country music publisher, Acuff-Rose. He strode in, played them three songs, and within a matter of days was appearing on national radio from the Grand Ole Opry. The wife of country music heavy hitter, Ernest Tubb was listening to that first show. This would be the beginnings of his mentorship with Ernest Tubbs. A fierce proponent of the honky tonk style, Jackson's biggest hits were part of that golden era of country music from the late fifties and throughout the sixties. He went on to enjoy many decades at the Opry, even after he sued the venue's owners for age discrimination. His championing of honky-tonk country music brought him legions of fans, and songs like Life To Go, Waterloo, A Wound Time Can't Erase, and Why I'm Walking remain much loved classics of the genre. This fantastic collection offers the listener a deep dive into his early repertoire, when country music still sounded 'country', prior to the Countrypolitan takeover from the late sixties onwards.
