Prior to this massive success, Claude had toured with some of country's most legendary names, appeared as a regular on the famous 'Louisiana Hayride' radio show, and been making records for 15 years - good records, too. Most of them came and went with little to no chart impact, and he retired from the music business more than once during those years. The sponsorship of his late friend Johnny Horton finally got him onto a major label in 1960, and almost 30 hits followed over the next decade or so.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Jasmine collection brings together the A and B sides from all of the singles Claude made in the run-up to 'Wolverton Mountain' and right through to the end of 1962. Everything from straight ahead hillbilly to rockabilly to 'story-song' country to pristine examples of the early 60s 'Nashville Sound' is covered. When you hear some of the earlier recordings you will wonder why it to took so long for Claude to break through.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCopiously annotated, extensively illustrated, superbly mastered, 'Sweeter Than Honey' should tick any and every box for all fans of vintage country music.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFlying Saucers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI Want To Be Loved\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Million Mistakes\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhy Should I\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeers And Pinballs\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFifty-One Beers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe Knows Why\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe's My Baby\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTake It Like A Man\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSo Close To Me\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI've Got The World By The Tail (1953)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSlow Thinking Heart\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI Think Of You And Me\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow That I Love You\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRun Baby Run\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNot Sure Of You\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBig River, Big Man\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSweet Loving\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Comancheros\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI Can't Get Over The Way You Got Over Me\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWolverton Mountain\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLittle Bitty Heart\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Burning Of Atlanta\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDon't That Moon Look Lonesome\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI've Got The World By The Tail (1962)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShopping Center\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSheepskin Valley\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI Backed Out\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54431977668993,"sku":"2374792","price":12.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/0604988381122.jpg?v=1750937032","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/2374792","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
