3.0 out of 5 stars Should be called "Whatever we could get", December 29, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Classic & Unreleased Collection (Audio CD)

A very mixed bag -- basically what Willie owned the rights to and what they could get cheaply. Usual Rhino nearly-unreadable tiny-type-on-black- background booklet -- good text in the booklet though. His first two singles are very good. Unreleased tracks interesting. One can see why the Hank album was not released -- notes say it was done very quickly with people who were hanging around. Music Hall selections are OK -- a little rough. Like one published review says: "There's no compilatory rationale whatsoever..." Glad I got it but was somewhat let down.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Stuff here!, July 3, 2005

The cuts from "Live at the Texas Opry House" are worth the price for this set, especially the "Bloody Mary Morning>Take Me Back to Tulsa>Bloody Mary Morning" (I challenged anyone to sit still while listening to this track!). "Willie Alone" and "Willie Sings Hank Williams" as well as "Atlantic Recordings" make this a great collection of rarities and hard to find sides. HIGHLY recommended! Thanks Willie.
