A tribute to Eddie Arnold!









Eddy Arnold (May 15, 1918 – May 8, 2008) was an American country music singer who was second to George Jones in the number of individual hits on the country charts but, according to a formula derived by Joel Whitburn, is the all-time leader in an overall ranking for hits and their time on the charts. From 1945 through 1983 he had 145 charted songs, including 28 number-one hits.

I'd forgotten what a class act he was and that smooth, perfect voice. And I don't recall ever seeing Minnie Pearl without the tag. What a blast from the past.

I'm not really very familiar with Eddie Arnold's music but he did have a great voice. Hey it was great to see a moment of Minnie Pearl in that first video.
