“Bye Bye,
Love” is a cover version of the Everly Brothers' original hit (US #2, US
Country #1) of spring ‘57. Also Pierce did well with this in the Country
charts. Too bad I wasn’t able to find his version in YouTube.
This is yet
another hit record that was made in Bradley’s Barn with top notch musicians.
Webb Pierce
was very productive and popular in the 50’s. He had thirteen #1 singles in the (Country)
charts for a total of 113 weeks! His biggest hit “In the Jailhouse Now” spent
21 weeks at #1. I’ll post that one later.
List price:
“Very Good+” is $7.50 and “Near Mint” is
$15
