(2004/ACE)...Gospel Songs" 24 tracks Ace's second dip into the early 60s Hickory Catalogue of the 'King Of Country Music' combines his thematically linked fifth and sixth albums for the label. Both albums were originally released in 1963, and both feature Acuff in what, by common consensus among Acuff experts, is possibly the best voice of his long career. These album cover traditional American folk ballads and jubilee-style white gospel, with some of the most famous songs in both genres being featured along the way. Beautiful remastered from original first-generation Hickory Records master tapes, both albums are being reissued here on CD for the first time complete. More than 75% of the tracks have been unavailable for over 39 years.
