There is no better pressie than a couple vinyl LPs for a C & W Lover. The tunes sound much truer than a digitized, audio modified CD. Or indulge & buy a few for yourself. Minimum order is 5 albums
Grab 1/2 dozen LPs off this list, put them on the table, grab that cowboy hat and a cool one & sit back & listen to some C&W.
Most albums are in very good condition both covers & vinyl. A few have a small drill hole in the cover or a cutout. These LPs have not been abused.

A couple books with a C&W theme:
1.Johnny Cash The Life by Robrt Hilburn (hardcover) $5
2.Redneck Rock by Jan Reid (hardcover new edition) $5
3.Three Chords & the Truth by Laurence Leamer (hardcover) $5
This like-new hardcover novel that gives a behind the scenes with those who make and shape country music.
New price is over $30.
"The dramatic rise of country music has been one of the greatest changes in American popular culture," Leamer opines. He goes on, however, to lament that the music is languishing. In fact, album sales have dipped, which is but one particular concern he addresses in a book built around Fan Fair, an annual Nashville event during which fans meet current stars.
Leamer's book is a snapshot of country music before it was finally adulterated into just another safe corporate product.
To millions of country fans, Three Chords and the Truth will be a book of revelations. Those who have rarely listened to country music will learn why it is the most-listened-to music in the USA, played on more than 2,400 radio stations. And everyone who reads it will never again hear a country song quite the same way.
More than 10 albums could get you a discount if the stars are aligned but hey a couple bucks for a LP is fair. I will give a "reasonable" discount if ALL the lps are purchased in one shot.
