Widely revered as the "Father of Country Music," Jimmie Rodgers remains one of the most influential foundational figures in American popular music. Known affectionately as "The Singing Brakeman" due to his early career working on the railroads, Rodgers pioneered a revolutionary sound that seamlessly blended traditional folk, blues, jazz, and distinct vocal styling. His signature "blue yodel" became a cultural phenomenon, forever altering the landscape of country and roots music. Despite a tragically brief recording career cut short by illness in 1933, his profound impact earned him the distinction of being the very first inductee into the Country Music Hall of Fame, cementing his legacy as a true musical innovator. This 14-track vinyl compilation that celebrates the enduring genius of Jimmie Rodgers during his peak recording years between 1927 and 1933. This meticulously curated collection spans his foundational contributions to American roots music, bringing together his most iconic milestones on a single release. The tracklist boasts cornerstone recordings that shaped the genre, including his legendary breakthrough "Blue Yodel No.1 (T For Texas)" from 1927, the timeless narrative of "In The Jailhouse Now," and the hauntingly evocative "Waiting for a Train". It also highlights influential blues-infused masterpieces like "Blue Yodel No. 8 (Mule Skinner Blues)" and his final poignant works, such as "Mississippi Delta Blues". Offering an unparalleled acoustic overview of his legendary fingerstyle guitar work and unmistakable vocal delivery, this essential anthology is a monumental addition for historical preservationists, vinyl collectors, and traditional country purists

Shipping, Returns & Cancellations
SHIPPING:
We ship Monday through Friday. Orders typically ship within 24-72 hours. Tracking is sent to the email you provide at check out and may take a few days to become active.
Any items ordered with Pre-Orders will be held until they can all ship together. If you need in stock items faster please order them seperately.
RETURNS:

If you own a Crosley, Victrola or any other lower end turntable that has no ability to adjust the weight of the tone arm and are experiencing skipping on a new record please try the "Penny Trick". Simply place a penny on the top of the cartidge and it should provide enough weight to resolve your issues. While a great entry to the world of vinyl we do recommend upgrading to a turntable with a tone arm that can be adjusted as this issue will randomly occur. We do not take returns in these cases.
Resellers: If you are buying from us for resale we honestly don't mind. However, please don't panic if something you bought suddenly isn't flipable for more money and then try to return stuff to us because you feel like you made a bad investment choice. Despite our outsized reputation we're a small shop, not amazon. Absorbing these costs adds up on places like ours. Plus a little patience always tends to pay off.
CANCELLATIONS:
Due to an increasing number of payment processors no longer returning transaction fees to sellers on cancelled orders and rising labor costs any orders or pre-orders that need to be cancelled before shipment will be assessed a 5% cancellation/restocking fee on the order total including shipping and any other taxes or fees associated with the order.
Thank you for your understanding.
