5-CD box LP-size with 36-page book, 151 tracks. Playing time approx. 375 mns.
When Jean Shepard burst onto the country music scene in 1952, she had few female role models to follow. In the early 1950s, country music was still a largely male-dominated business and some people actually believed women were incapable of selling large numbers of country records. With the help of country bandleader and singer Hank Thompson, Jean landed a recording contract with Capitol Records and managed to change that opinion. Presented here are 151 legendary sides that Shepard recorded for Capitol between 1952 and 1964. The set includes her first number one single A Dear John Letter featuring Ferlin Husky , Two Hoops And A Holler, A Satisfied Mind, Beautiful Lies and Second Fiddle To An Old Guitar . This set features material from Jean s 1955 landmark album Songs Of A Love Affair which is widely acknowledged as the first concept album recorded by a female country artist as well as her Got You On My Mind , Lonesome Love and Heartaches And Tears albums. Included in addition is a 36-page book with a newly researched biography by Chris Skinker, a discography and numerous rare photos.
