gibson1Shelby, N.C., the hometown of late songwriter Don Gibson, is honoring Gibson with a 1.5 mile path of 6 feet tall record album-painted sculptures. Each is themed with one of Gibson’s hits.
Two of Gibson’s compositions were “Sweet Dreams,” made popular by Patsy Cline, and the Ray Charles classic, “I Can’t Stop Loving You.” Both songs are incorporated, via a sound chip, into the life-size sculptures of Gibson’s records on display in Shelby.
