One of the most popular American tenor singers from the 1920s through the early '50s, James Melton was an eclectic artist with thousands of songs in genres ranging from light classical to cowboy songs in his repertoire. A fraction of this material is covered in this wide-ranging best-of--the first time Melton has been featured on CD--in which the singer's classic, mannered tenor is heard on titles like the old folk song "Short'nin' Bread," the cowboy song "Carry Me Back to the Lone Prairie," and "O Image, Angel-Like and Fair" from Mozart's THE MAGIC FLUTE.
