Product Description:
Originally hailing from New Zealand before finding fame in Australia, Tex Morton was a vaudeville and touring show entertainer whose early recordings outsold Bing Crosby on the local market. This set contains unique versions of classic country hits sung with just Tex or his guitar with his distinctive Jimmie Rodgers styled runs and also with his band, The Roughriders. A singer, yodeller, poet, hypnotist, sharpshooter, mind-reader and actor - Tex could, and did, do it all! His musical and showbiz career spanned across six decades and saw him perform around the world. All the material on this set is freshly remastered from original discs and the booklet features comprehensive notes from writer and DJ, Paul Hazell.
