More than 60 years after her tragic death, country music legend Patsy Cline still has more to share with the world after never-before-released recordings of the iconic star were discovered in a basement.
A limited-edition, two-LP set, “Imagine That: The Lost Recordings (1954-1963),” which includes 48 songs from live concerts and radio and TV appearances, was released on Saturday for Record Store Day by Elemental Music/Deep Digs. A two-CD set will also be available on April 18.
Two of the oldest recordings, discovered in a basement where they’d been stored for 30 years, were found on their original acetate disc recorded at the old WARL radio station in Arlington, NBC Washington reported. Many of the tracks were recorded in D.C. or Virginia.
Cline, originally from Winchester, Virginia, only recorded a few studio albums before she died in a plane crash at 30 years old.
