The tracks on this album were made from ca. 1944 to 1949. Patsy Montana's big fame was fading when Rosalie appeared on the scene. She started recording in 1944 with Denver Darling's band, later changed to the Zeke Manners band where she met Elton Britt with whom she had different charts successes around 1950. She also did duets with Billy Williams, Red River Dave and Eddie Marshall. She was probably the most successful yodeling girl of the late 1940s and early 1950s. 26 tracks including her first items, some rare transcriptions and the more popular Victor recordings are presented in this CD album. Two of the most important musicians are Vaughn Horton (steel) and Chet Atkins (electric guitar). A must - at least for yodel fans!
