No artist has so dominated country music as Webb Pierce. Most Nashville stars credit their musical inspirations to Hank Lefty and Webb. Born in 1926 on a farm near Monroe Louisiana Webb was the first artist to dress in rhinestone suits and with gaudy showmanship built the first guitar-shaped swimming pool and drove silver dollar studded cars. For eight years he was voted the number one country singer. No one but Webb Pierce can claim 69 hit songs in a row. Shortly before his death in 1991 Webb personally created from rare film performances a compilation of his greatest hits narrating and providing background on the songs writers and their origins. This is a unique center stage look at Webb Pierce ""The Wondering Boy."" Tracklist: 1 .In the Jailhouse Now 2. Wondering 3. More and More 4. Slowly 5. There Stands the Glass 6.
