Digitally remastered release from the country music legend containing his two most popular and best-selling albums. Canadian Pacific appears for the first time on CD. George's success was internationally widespread, with Canada, Europe and the British Isles all becoming regular stomping grounds - with the last, well and truly a second home. It was such activities that earned him the title International Ambassador of Country Music. The Abilene album was released in 1963. The title track reached #1 on the Billboard Country Singles charts remaining there for four weeks and staying on the charts for a total of 24 weeks. Canadian Pacific was released in 1969 and due to it's continuing popularity entered the UK album charts two years later in 1971. The album featured all Canadian songwriters, Gordon Lightfoot, Leonard Cohen, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Joni Mitchell, Hank Snow, Bruce Cockburn, Ian Tyson and the writer of the title track, Ray Griff. The album contains three Billboard country hits, 'Steel Rail Blues', 'Early Mornin' Rain' and 'Canadian Pacific'.
