[1960] Johnny Horton - Johnny Horton Makes History

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51E9P3ORw9L._SS500_.jpg Title: Johnny Horton Makes History [Original Recording Remastered] Artist:: Johnny Horton Audio CD (July 30, 2002) Original Release Date: 1960 Number of Discs: 1 Genre: Folk Saga Format: flac Track Listing: 01. Johnny Freedom 02. Jim Bridger 03. The Battle of New Orleans 04. Comanche (The Brave Horse) 05. Snow-Shoe Thompson 06. Battle of Bull Run 07. Sinking of the Reuben James 08. Sink the Bismarck 09. O'Leary's Cow 10. Young Abe Lincoln (Make a Tall, Tall Man) 11. John Paul Jones 12. Johnny Reb Allmusic Review: Anybody who knows Johnny Horton's music prefers his hard honky tonk and rockabilly tunes rather than his novelty hits. That said, even these have their place and Horton scored big with Tillman Franks' "Sink the Bismark" and Jimmie Driftwood's "Battle of New Orleans," and to a lesser degree, with Merle Kilgore's "Johnny Reb." This compilation of all Horton's novelty songs about historic events and gigantic and/or mythical figures is desirable if for no other than archival purposes. That said, most of this material is delightfully listenable with one or two misses in the bunch; the sound is pretty fair, and the price is most definitely right. Amazon Review: Here are 12 songs that are truly entertaining and educational. This album was originally released just a few short months before Johnny was killed in a head on collision. The music has held up quite well through the years and sounds better than ever on cd.
