Cherry Red Records Overnight Sensation: Country Hits 1974-1984

Mickey Gilley placed 42 singles on the Billboard country (and occasionally, Hot 100) charts between 1974 and 1987. He is also one of a select number of country music legends to have been awarded a star on the “Hollywood Walk Of Fame” – an honour that he shares with his most famous cousin Jerry Lee Lewis.  He was also inducted into the Delta Music Museum Hall of Fame in Ferriday, Louisiana.
