Country Ragtime Rockin Hillbilly Cowboy Music

2010 two CD collection, a salute to Dick Thomas, one of the unsung great voices of Country & Western music. Across the 55 tracks on offer here, the focus is on his rarest and earliest recordings along with singles from later in his career, plus many long deleted collectors pieces all superbly remastered. Includes the original version of the cowboy standard "Sioux City Sue" which made Dick Thomas a name in music history. With comprehensive liner notes covering the man and his career, this is a great collectors piece, as well as a great introduction to one of the best voices who has sadly been overlooked. Jasmine.
