Just read about Eddy's death on the internet. That nashville sound is forever gone now. The article said Eddy was a pioneer regarding the Nashville Sound era. I have to disagree, since I strongly support Jim Reeves as being the founding father of the Nashville Sound. Eddy and Patsy Cline sort of followed in Jim's footsteps. They were all fabulous singers though.
