Synopsis

Product Description
Jim And Jesse are celebrating 60 Years as members of the Grand Ole Opry this year. The success of their 60s radio shows prompted Martha White Flour to bring them to Nashville to star on their early morning show on Wsm. In 1964 a life time dream came true for Jim And Jesse when they became regular members of the Grand Ole Opry.

Originally released in 1978 as a 2 record set on the Old Dominion label, Radio Shows was recorded in 1962 and contained mainly songs never before recorded by Jim And Jesse and The Virginia Boys, and were selected because of the heavy requests for them on their radio shows. Joe Taylor, Jim & Jesse's former booking agent, stated in the album liner notes, I hope you enjoy this album, it is down to earth, American music, at its very finest.

Produced by Jesse McReynolds and Gordon Reid, Radio Shows contains 24 songs on one compact disc remastered from the original master tapes by renowned engineer John Eberle with performances by Jim & Jesse McReynolds, Allen Shelton, Jim Buchanan, Don McHan and David Southerland.

A bonus feature includes a free download interview with Jesse McReynolds reminiscing about the Radio Shows album and era, as well as, exclusive photos from his private collection during this wonderful period in the lives of Jim & Jesse.
