Jim Reeves/Floyd Cramer/Chet Atkins In Suidafrika / Country Side of Jim Reeves Limited Vinyl LP

Overview:
This vinyl presents the complete Jim Reeves album “The Country Side”, whose title implies more of a country direction than some of the singer’s country-pop material. In point of fact, Reeves may never be country enough for some listeners, but there is definitely some genre- specific content, including piercing pedal steel licks sopping wet with reverb and echo, and some excellent songs, including the artist’s own “Yonder Comes a Sucker”. As a country singer, though, he is a crooner, make no mistake. This Lp also reissues a rare and unique original album of South-African songs performed by Jim Reeves, Floyd Cramer & Chet Atkins whilst on tour in South Africa in 1962.
