Boots is still the best Tenor Sax player alive! Kenny G does not even come close to him. Nobody has matched his incredible tone quality(quality of his sound). This was one of his best Cds. I hope I will get to see him perform live once again.

If you love instrumentals that rock this is a great cd done by a great artist his music is supperbly done Every song on this cd could be a favorite to some one their are songs on here that will live forever and the name of the artist will live as long as the songs do and they both will out last me by years

Boots Randolph was an incredibly talented sax player and I have
always enjoyed hearing his recordings and hearing him play on
TV shows, such as the Grand Ole Opry and Hee Haw.
This CD is terrific in general but I'm disappointed that two
particular songs are missing.
He charted only 4 titles on Billboard's Top Pop 100 charts
(and none on the country charts).
"Yakety Sax" and "The Shadow Of Your Smile" are included on
this CD but "Hey, Mr. Sax Man" and "Temptation" are not.
This CD is titled "The Greatest Hits Of. . . ." How can they
justify that by omitting 2 of the 4 songs that charted?
For that reason, I give it only 4 stars instead of the 5 that
it would have had with those other two songs included.
Oh, well, it's still a good CD.

This is a perfect intro to Boots and a fond CD of memories. Nothing new, just him and his Sax. I am thankful we have his music.

Nobody will ever plan like Boots Randolph. He's the king. And this CD ois incredible.

Boots Randolph is probably one of the best sax players on the planet. His articulation, tone, everything is awesome. Yakety Sax is a great song. One of my favorite Jazz songs. Get this CD if you like jazz or sax. Or just get it anyway.
