5.0 out of 5 stars A One Man Campaign Was Waged to Get Webb into the, Dec 19 2002
This review is from: Best Of (Audio CD)
Country Music Hall of Fame. That torch was carried by none other than Eddie Stubbs of WSM Nashville. His relentless devotion to a man he felt so deserved to be in the Hall of Fame is an example of why Eddie Stubbs should be a National Treasure.

But back to Webb Pierce. The FIRST country music performer to put a pedal steel guitar on a recording and forever change the sound of country music. Being able to change octives without changing notes slapped musicians foreheads. His classic recordings are a testiment to true country music and here is how it is done. The CMA is so political it was a farse until more hard liner country music entertainers and performers got on the board. Marty Stuart and Eddie Stubbs are the reason Webb Pierce is now in the Hall of Fame. Too bad it had to be done this way. His voice and his songs should have carried him there while he was still alive.

Real music, real songs by a real singer. If you like REAL country music, I suggest you order a copy of this from Amazon...You will not be disappointed or go wrong.

Put this in your CD machine and sit back and visulize a 1960's style truck stop or hamburger joint or roadhouse and the smell of french fries and burgers and high octane gasoline is in the air. And as you walk closer real country music can be heard. Webb Pierce can be heard singing "Back Street Affair." The neon lights are shining brighter now, Webb has made it.

"Are There Any Questions?"<---quote from Eddie Stubbs.
