4.0 out of 5 stars Southern Fried, May 6, 2009

This may be the only Bill Anderson album still in circulation that includes my favorite Anderson tune, "Southern Fried". I would have bought it just for that one tune.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not really important anymore, May 1, 2002

At one time this was the only Bill Anderson CD that had any of his hits original recordings. It also contains some of his singles from when he was on Southern Tracks in the early to mid 1980's. The duet with Roy Acuff is a remake. Considering the Varese and Oh Boy! reissues, this set has been rendered obsolete. But for some reason I have a feeling after all of those sets are out of print, this one will still be around.

3.0 out of 5 stars This is It?, February 21, 2005

Eclectic Revisited "Charlie" (Arizona) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Best Of Bill Anderson, The (Audio CD)

Considering that Whisperin' Bill wrote "I Missed Me" (done by Jim Reeves also) and others and had "Po Folks" as a hit of sorts, I can't believe this is his "best" (translate that to "all"). Many of the songs on this package are cover versions of other singers' hits and don't evoke memories of this soft-spoken man. Even Walter Brennan narrated a great "Mama Sang A Song". That leaves Bill with "Still", a 1962 hit, as his big moment (along with the TV game show, "The Better Sex"). Hard to believe.
