The Ultimate Nashville Stars
Here’s a nice little compilation album with some pretty big names on it. The recordings you are about to hear sold millions of copies combined.
And they all came from a town at the heart of country music smack dab in the heart of Tennessee.
So get ready to hear wall-to-wall solid gold from wall-to-wall talent in Volume 241: Nashville Souvenirs.
For more information about this album, see the Discogs webpage for it.
