 Eddy Arnold : Songs I Love to Sing - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
The album was originally released in 1963 under the title Country Songs I Love to Sing, with a rustic cover photo of Arnold strumming his guitar on the porch of a log cabin.
Where the original album declared Arnold "one of the great country (and pop!) singers," the reissue refers to him only as a pop singer.
The album itself is a collection of early recordings (all but two of the cuts were big hits for Arnold between 1946-1951) that are unmistakably "country" (however mild), and the attempt to sell it to the pop audience in a misleading package is simply dishonest.

 Eddy Arnold : Cattle Call/Thereby Hangs a Tale - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
This CD is made up of two similarly conceived albums that were among the finest LPs Arnold ever cut, when he was in the midst of the extended peak of his career.
Cattle Call was an apparent attempt (and almost wholly successful one) to tap into the revival of interest in Western songs fostered by Marty Robbins and Johnny Cash at Columbia.
Thereby Hangs a Tale grew out of the folk music boom and Arnold's successful 1959 single of Jimmie Driftwood's "Tennessee Stud." The Anita Kerr Singers turn up here and there, but are used in a fairly restrained manner.
