Walk On By [ORIGINAL RECORDINGS REMASTERED] 2CD SET

EU-only two CD collection. Leroy Van Dyke's Countrypolitan classic 'Walk On By' was the biggest Country record of a 36 year period, based on sales, plays and weeks on the charts. Although Van Dyke is chiefly remembered for his biggest hit, he'd already enjoyed a million-seller with his very first release, 'The Auctioneer', five years earlier. This compilation anthologizes Leroy's career between 1956-62, featuring all his studio recordings during this period, including demo's, outtakes, a rare German-language version of 'Walk On By' and his first two Mercury LPs, Walk On By and Moving Van Dyke. Also includes C&W and crossover pop hits like 'Big Man In A Big House', 'If A Woman Answers', 'Dim Dark Corner', 'I Sat Back And Let It Happen' and 'Black Cloud'. Many of the tracks featured on Disc Two have never previously appeared on CD. Although now well into his eighties, Van Dyke continues to perform regular concerts and still has an ambassadorial role with the Country Music Association.
