Time-Life Album Discography, Part 20:
Country U.S.A. Series

By Mike Callahan, David Edwards, and Patrice Eyries
Last update: February 6, 2008



This series highlighted country music over the years 1950-1972. For the most part, music after 1972 was covered on the Contemporary Country series. We know of 24 volumes in this series, including a Christmas volume. It is believed that the first 21 volumes were issued as 2-LP box sets and CDs, while the remaining three volumes came out on CD only.


When the series became available on compact disc, the sales offer included a free "I love country music" T-Shirt.
