Even if you don't know country....

I am not a fan of country music, but still found this to be a great listen. The narration was spot on.

A time capsule of Nashville

Peter Cooper does a great job creating an atmosphere throughout the entire book. Tom T’s voiceovers are spectacular

just fun

a nice entertaining time. a few laughs and info I never knew about Tom. Harper valley? never knew it was his song.

great book

I listen to this book atleast once a year. always keeps my interest. nobody can tell a story like tom t hall

Important book

I read the print version shortly after its release. The efforts of Peter Cooper, Tom T and all involved have elevated the character and quality of this book- which is no small achievement and until now I would have thought an impossibility.
