Eddy ArnoldCheck into country fun with the Checkerboard Fun Fest! This musical variety show from 1945 featured popular country western musical artists, star performances, and comedy interludes with a downhome flavor. Personalities featured on the Checkerboard included The Cackle Sisters, Curle Fox, Rod Brasfield, and its inimitable host, Eddy Arnold.

Eddy Arnold, the Tennessee Plowboy, was a hugely popular country music artist in the 1940s. He was an unprecedented success on the country charts, dominating the industry with 57 singles in the top ten in one decade. Arnold starred on many country radio programs as both host and performer, including the Grand Ole Opry and Hometown Reunion. Arnold moved to television in the 1950s, hosting his own show, The Eddy Arnold Show.

    It seems like you run your business much like the folks ran theirs back in the very days we listen to - straight up, honest, and none of the overblown advertising that is so prevalent in today's world.

    I have had two large orders, received the second one today just a couple days after placing it. The orders were handled great but I was looking forward to the recordings.

    How can I began to thank you for your service? (I've ordered 2 or 3 dozen CDs from you in the past, but changed e-mail addresses, so didn't do the old log on). ALL of the enjoyable hours I've spent listening in the car, and sometimes at work, (while I'm working of course, have been great! The shows stick with me more than most of the junky TV on these days. I just really can not think you enough, and I do mean that from the bottom of my heart! You take care, and thanks again!!
