Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Mostly Good Songs
This is a 2-CD set, and is an assortment of various singers. Some of my favorite songs are "Hey Good Lookin'" by Hank Williams, "Sixteen Tons" by Tennessee Ernie Ford, "Rhinestone Cowboy" by Glen Campbell, "Fourteen Carat Mind" by Gene Watson, just to name a few.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Start to a Collection
This CD set is a great way to share some of the best classic country hits with someone or even to start your own collection. I have almost if not all of these songs on other CDs, but having so many on two CDs is amazing. For those looking to get into or back into this type of music, this CD set is a great way to sample some of the best songs. It only causes me to think that there are no new greats like the ones we had in the past. "Who's going to fill their shoes?"


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Country gold standard
Mainstream, popular Country music is what you get on this double CD album. From the dawn of the 1950s, when commercial recording interests took a firm hold on this particular strand of America's musical tradition, to the end of the 1980s, when other styles started to squeeze Country out of the charts.

In the late 60s and early 70s, it was widely acknowledged that the two gods of Country were Johnny Cash and Jim Reeves (selling better than ever after his untimely death). So it is strange ... Read More


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Four decades of country number ones
Only one of the thirty-six tracks here didn't make it to number one in the American country singles charts, that being God bless the USA, which the compilers understandably selected to represent Lee Greenwood here in preference to any of his country number one hits. In its way, that selection shows that number one is not the only thing that matters in the music business - some of the most famous songs in popular music never made it to number one in any chart. Nevertheless, the number one position does ... Read More


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - + 1/2 stars...Nearly Forty Years of Classic Country
This 36-track collection chronologically covers nearly four decades of country music beginning with Hank Williams 1951 hit "Hey, Good Lookin'" and ending with Patty Loveless's 1989 hit "Timber, I'm Falling in Love." For any 2-CD set to adequately cover four decades is a nearly impossible task--especially when both discs run under sixty minutes.

This collection could easily have been expanded by an additional dozen or more tracks, allowing the compilers to focus more attention on country's ... Read More
