Jim Reeves Country-Bluegrass

Artist Overview
Reeves's smooth, velvety voice is easy on the ears, as are the 'Nashville Sound' instrumental tracks behind it, but Jim Reeves was pure country. Although no one would ever confuse him with Hank Williams, Reeves cut such sides as "Four Walls," "He'll Have to Go," and "Distant Drums," all as much a part of the country canon as "Your Cheatin' Heart." Reeves, Eddy Arnold, and Patsy Cline pretty well defined country's sophisticated sound during the '50s and '60s.
