Editorial Reviews
Book Description
A kaleidoscope of rhinestones, flashy cars, boots, and guitars, Vinyl Hayride proudly exhibits the classic album covers that define country music's look and style. From the cartoon illustrations of the 1940s to the glamour shots of the 1980s, this is a one-of-a-kind collection of more than 250 classic album covers. Author Paul Kingsbury painstakingly unearthed the best from deep in the vaults of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, home to the world's most complete country music record collection. A visual history of the genre, Vinyl Hayride revels in both the charm and the humor inherent in the country music attitude. It's album-sized and heavy on the twang - in other words, a must-have for fans of classic album graphics, country music, and hillbilly style.
