Country 1951-1958

(5-CD LP-sized box set with 20-page book) There's astonishing versatility here: hillbilly string band music, folk, rockabilly, Hawaiian, and western music. Marty stamped his own identity on it all. Here are the great early hits: I'll Go On Alone, That's All Right, Mean Mama Blues, Maybelline, Tennessee Toddy, Mister Teardrop, Singing The Blues, Knee Deep In The Blues, and I Can't Quit. There's also the complete vocal-guitar session of folk songs and traditional songs, the first Hawaiian LP, the rock 'n' roll sides, and the duets. Essential! The fifth CD is a complete session, including all the false starts and alternate takes, for a real fly-on-the-wall listening experience!
