  • Description

    Johnny Horton's first era of success proved massively influential on Rockabilly/Country crossover artists that would follow and his second successful wave ushered in the popularity of the epic story Pop song. This release features the absolute best of his entire output, including classics such as 'Battle Of New Orleans,' 'When It's Springtime In Alaska (It's Forty Below)' and the fabulous Honky Tonk standard 'Honky Tonk Man.'
