There Stands The Glass ... CD Starday, Early 60s. New Copy ... Just Sold Out!
Booze and country music go together as well as – well, maybe booze and just about anything else – yet there's a special mood to a country tune when the theme is alcohol and remorse – bedfellows who've given us plenty of great country songs over the years! This collection offers ... read more CD

Moore & Napier/Starday/Nashville, 1960s. New Copy ... Just Sold Out!
One of the coolest entries in the Starday Records series of truck-themed collections in the 60s – partly because this one features material by just a small core of artists, and also because there's a fair bit of bluegrass in the mix as well!

Joe Maphis —
Amazing Joe Maphis – King Of The Strings ... CD Starday/Gusto, Early 60s. New Copy ... $3.99 9.99
Joe Maphis was definitely the king of the strings back in the day – a guitarist who was so tight, he had to play a double-necked electric just to give his fingers enough to do – something that wouldn't come into vogue much later, until the 70s arena rock guitarists started to showcase ... read more CD

A breathtakingly beautiful recording of the legendary Robbie Basho – and a much-needed addition to his too-small catalog of albums!
