Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum Store

Whether you want to relive cherished Grand Ole Opry memories or experience country music’s golden age for the first time, this Jim Reeves collection was assembled with you in mind. Twenty live performances from the Prince Albert Show—the Opry’s half-hour NBC network segment—capture the legendary singer on his way up and demonstrate the talent that later secured his election to the Country Music Hall of Fame. With each note wrapped in velvet, Reeves’s careful phrasing, precise diction, and seductive baritone will take you back to the Opry’s 1950s heyday and put you front and center at Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium. From Reeves’s first hit, “Mexican Joe,” sung on a 1953 guest appearance, to straight country numbers such as 1957’s “Yonder Comes a Sucker,” to gospel favorites including “(Gimme That) Old Time Religion” and his trademark country-pop smashes “Four Walls” and “He’ll Have to Go,” this compilation of previously unreleased music is guaranteed to please music fans across the board.
