Hank Snow Blues For My Blue Eyes CD

Although Hank Snow can be ranked alongside Ernest Tubb and Red Foley in the development of Country music following Jimmie Rodgers, his route was more tortuous than most.

Canadian born and bred, Snow had to endure a harsh upbringing before pursuing hisdream of emulating Rodgers. He spent years proving himself to Canadian audiences but not so successfully to Americans until finally, in 1950, he got a break on the "Grand Ole Opry". In the same year, he peened his smash hit "I'm Moving On" and Snow hadfinally arrived.

This fresh, 23 track thematic Jasmine collcetion finds Snow in a bluesy, sometimes tearful mood, and features a number of Jimmie Rodgers songs.
