Ernest Tubb Record Shop. Decca Records. Ernest Tubb and his Texas Troubadours.
Early in 1947, he opened the Ernest Tubb Record Shop in Nashville, which he promoted through the Midnight Jamboree, a radio program he designed to fill the post-Opry slot on the radio. Today Midnight Jamboree is still on the air and is the second-longest running US radio program. The store is still open too, 60 years later at:
2416 Music Valley Dr Ste 110
Nashville, TN 37214-1012
Phone: (615) 889-2474
Nothing about this legendary store is shiny or state-of-the-art–it’s strictly “old country.” The staff knows its stuff, too. If you remember a song from decades past, someone here will probably know it, too. The store stays open late on Saturday evenings for the Midnight Jamboree, a live radio show broadcast from the Texas Troubadour Theatre, a 500-seat performance space attached to the Record Shop and across from Opryland.
