Mesh Match For "The Essential Gene Autry" CD by Gene Autry:


Gene Autry Artist Snapshot:

Along with Roy Rogers, Gene Autry defined a screen archetype of the 1930s and '40s: the singing cowboy. A gifted singer and songwriter, Autry began his career as a Jimmie Rodgers imitator before developing his own distinctive style. Among his many, many hits are "Back in the Saddle Again," "Yellow Rose of Texas," and "That Silver-Haired Daddy of Mine." As a star of recordings, TV, and film, Autry had a pervasive influence, essentially creating the template for the "western" half of country & western music.

Title Note

Includes liner notes by Charles Wolfe, complete track information and historic photos.

Digitally remastered by Larry Keys (1992, Sony Music Studios, New York, New York).

Gene Autry's story, as documented on THE ESSENTIAL GENE AUTRY, is nothing short of amazing. He invented the "singing cowboy" image and revolutionized not just C&W, but popular culture in general.

"The Yellow Road of Texas," "Tumblin' Tumbleweeds," "You Are My Sunshine" and "Back in the Saddle Again," as heard here, are as rich and enjoyable now and they were when they were first recorded. In fact, the superior quality of this CD makes these songs more than listenable. Autry's warm campfire voice and his straightforward, good-natured honesty is quickly identifiable on THE ESSENTIAL GENE AUTRY. A perfect survey of the original singing cowboy, this album represents a vital piece of Americana.
