“That was something for him to do that because he didn’t know me. And he put me in the Ernest Tubb Record Shop just about every Saturday night. Ernest Tubb helped me a lot.”

@charleycrockett has a new album out and a shiny new video to go with it. 'Music City USA' is the title of Charley's latest album and the title of the first single. The video was shot here in Nashville with scenes right here at ETRS. We are thrilled to be part of this wonderful album. It is being released today and we have it here in the shop. Hit the link in the bio and check out his video then come on down and pick up a copy of the LP.

Look who is hanging out at RCA Studios rocking an ETRS tee...it's @officialslimjimphantom of the Stray Cats. The Stray Cats burst onto the scene right at the end of the 70s and the dawn of the 80s and and had us dancing to rockabilly music all over again. Formed in New York, made in the UK and solidified back here in the States, the Stray Cats stand alongside all those rockabilly giants that we know and love. So grab that 'Stray Cats' LP and drop the needle on 'Rock This Town' and we dare you to try to not dance.

Here is an throwback ad that was placed in the Country Music Fan Fair booklet. This was back when we had 3 additional locations. There is a coupon for $1.00 off and a free 45. The good news is that we are opening a second location in Bertram, TX. It will be Ernest Tubb Record Shop II. And it is only fitting that the Texas Troubadour has a store in his home state. Thanks a lot. Vintage ad from @countryaficionado

We get a lot of compliments on our posts that disc

We get a lot of compliments on our posts that discuss the history and chronicles of country music. We hope to share, bring attention to and maybe help enlighten fans to how we got here and where this wonderful music came from. But, if you want to take a deep dive and really get knowledge of traditional country music and Nashville's place in it, there is no better place to learn then Cocaine and Rhinestones. C&R is the fantastic podcast from @tylermahancoe. He takes you on an educational and entertaining journey through the history of the genre. C&R is thoroughly researched and cited, yet it is very digestible and can be enjoyed on many levels. We couldn't recommend it enough. Check it out.

Born today back in 1919, right here in Nashville, was Kitty Wells. She was the first female to top the US country charts when she did so with 'It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels' in 1952. She would go on the have an amazing career and would land in the Country Music Hall of Fame.

Now here are a couple of quartets that will never go out of style. The Oak Ridge Boys released a new album, 'Front Porch Singin' last month and The Statler Brothers are still releasing their classics on vinyl. Two great groups that have made their place in so many vinyl collections and have rightfully landed in the County Music Hall of Fame.

This one hurts. Well, they all hurt, just in different ways. Charlie Watts passed away today. He was the backbeat, backbone, drive and bedrock for the greatest rock n roll band ever assembled. For nearly 60 years Charlie Watts sat at his throne and provided us with groove after groove to some of the greatest songs ever put to tape. Class. Style. And just plain COOL. Thank you for sharing your music with the world. 'Thanks a lot'.

Brazilbilly played a special edition of the Midnite Jamboree during the @tomatoartfest. It was a great event with wonderful people all around. We caught this guy roaming around and enjoying the music. He was visiting from Arizona and posed for this pic. Hey, Sir, we like your taste.

Congratulations to Ray Charles on being named in t

Congratulations to Ray Charles on being named in this years class of the Country Music Hall of Fame. Ray jumped from his R&B and Blues train over to coach on the Country and Western wagon and recorded one of the best albums the genre has ever heard. 'Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music' was released in 1962 and spent 14 weeks at #1. It sounds as good today as it did when it was released nearly 60 years ago. Here is to a well deserved honor.
