None other than the immortal Hank Williams got Red Sovine contracted with his record company. This is the complete material that Red recorded for this label from January 1949 to September 1952. 3 of the identified musicians are Jerry Byrd <steel guitar>, Chet Atkins <electric guitar> and Tommy Jackson <fiddle>. These early jewels proove that Red is a very versatile performer from Honky Tonky Country Sounds to Country Boogies and Western Swing. Very interesting early material of "Daddy" Red Sovine.
