In November 1994, in a survey which looked back to October 1958, Billboard magazine identified Leroy Van Dyke's Countrypolitan classic 'Walk On By' as the biggest country record of that thirty-six year period, based on sales, plays and weeks on the charts. Although Van Dyke is chiefly remembered for his biggest hit, he'd already enjoyed a million-seller with his very first release, 'The Auctioneer', five years earlier.
Also includes C&W and crossover pop hits like "Big Man in a Big House", 'If a Woman Answers', 'Dim Dark Corner', 'I Sat Back and Let It Happen' and 'Black Cloud'. Many of the tracks featured on Disc 2 have never previously appeared on CD.
Although now well into his eighties, Van Dyke continues to perform regular concerts and still has an ambassadorial role with the Country Music Association.
