dvds > Webb Pierce: Greatest Hits £7.49
synopsisWEBB PIERCE GREATEST HITS "Nobody done it his way like Webb Pierce" - Willie Nelson No artist has so dominated country music as Webb Pierce. Most Nashville stars credit their musical inspirations to Hank, Lefty, and Webb. Born in 1926 on a farm in Louisiana, Webb was the first artist to dress in rhinestone suits, and, with gaudy showmanship, built the first guitar-shaped swimming pool and drove silver dollar-studded cars. For eight years he was voted the number one coutry singer and no one but Webb Pierce can claim 69 hit songs in a row. Shortly before his death, in 1991, Webb personally created, from rare film performances, a compilation of his greatest hits, narrating and providing background on the songs, writers, and their origins. This is a unique centre stage look at Webb Pierce, "The Wondering Boy". Music: In The Jailhouse Now Wondering More and More Slowly There Stands The Glass Does My Memory Cross Your Mind? I Ain't Never Rocky Top Take The Time It Takes How Do You Talk To A Baby?

Cast: Webb Pierce Customer Reviews
British Country Music Association - Admin DigitalClassics
“Great to see rare live performances of hits like ‘In the Jailhouse Now’ and Backstreet Affair’ and countless others by the man whose memory the country industry has neglected for so long”
Country Music and Dance - Admin DigitalClassics
“ As it’s told by Webb it’s accurate but this is not the story of his life, just his music, and there’s plenty of that”
Country Music People - Admin DigitalClassics
“If you want to show how kitsch country music can be this is the gold standard”
