5.0 out of 5 stars The best Basic Collection Available, January 10, 2006

I've had this album on LP, Cassette, and now CD. One of my favorite albums and probably the best BASIC Merle collection on the market. Too many of the Merle Collections out there are re-recordings of a tired and burnt-out Haggard that leave the listener disappointed.....this one is not one of those. Get it while you can; a fine sampling of a legend in his heyday. A+

5.0 out of 5 stars First 8-track, then LP, then cassette, now CD!, March 28, 2002

We've owned "The best of the best" in all 4 formats. If you love Mr. Haggard, this album is a must have. My family has never been on a road trip without it. Growing up, I listened to the record all of the time. Nowadays, I don't listen to country at all- but I'll always listen to Merle!

The best of compilation from the one and only Merle Haggard, great material, "Silver Wings", "The Fightin' Side Of Me", "Workin' Man Blues", "Today I Started Loving You Again", "Daddy Frank(The Guitarman)", "Hungry Eyes". These are the Haggard recordings you'll wear out time after time, play after play, songs brilliantly written, songs that hit the soul way down deep inside, from a man who has tasted the bitter and the sweet from the ever changing seasons of life, Merle Haggard can sing a song like no other with a voice that is simply golden, and with the Strangers "the hag" could never go wrong. There are more Merle Haggard "best of" recordings out there, this one always stood out for me, one of the finer country music compilations.
