Description by OLDIES.com:

By the 1950s, Acuff's crown was slipping. He wasn't the star that he had been, but he was still making great records as this collection of ultra-rare sides cut between 1953 & 58. Roy was adapting to the changing face of country music, but still making music that was true to his original vision. He re-made some of his biggest hits. He also recorded some surprisingly good new songs.
