ALABAMA
was the first country music supergroup. Their total album sales topped
70 million, placing them among the top-five best-selling country music
acts of all time; and among the 20 best-selling recording acts of all
time in the United States.
These two albums, originally released in 1980 & '81, have now been
digitally remastered. The 12 page booklet includes extensive liner
notes, band photographs and full lyrics to
every song.
Two tracks featured here - Tennessee River and Why Lady Why - were the
band' s first two number one hits, and laid the foundation for what
became one of the most impressive popularity runs in country music
history.
Alabama retired from the road after a sold-out 2003-2004 Farewell Tour.
For more than twenty-five years the four-man band had stood tall as the
pre-eminent American country-rock band. Alabama' s sales history and
list of awards and accomplishments in its 25-year history are
staggering. In 2005 they were inducted into the Country Music Hall of
Fame, a much deserved accolade for Alabama' s unmatched longevity in the
country music marketplace.
