We at Bear Family can honestly say that we've done more than anyone to keep the sound of the great original country duets alive. The Blue Sky Boys, the Monroe Brothers, Darby & Tarlton, Sara & Maybelle Carter, the Louvin Brothers, and even the Everly Brothers have all received the Bear Family treatment. One of the greatest duet acts of all was Johnnie & Jack, and in this box, we collected absolutely every recording by Johnnie & Jack.
The 6 CDs include all their Apollo, King, RCA, and Decca recordings made between their first session in 1947 and Jack's death in 1963. Johnnie Wright gives a session-by-session account of his career... his memory is incredible, and it amounts to a fifteen year history of country music.
Also included are sensational photos from Johnnie Wright's personal photo library and fanatically detailed notes from Grand Ole Opry host Eddie Stubbs.
