4.0 out of 5 stars All the hits and more..., April 3, 2000

This would appear to be the only Campbell compilation to include all of his hits from the 60s and 70s, so it does its job well enough. There's many classics here: "Wichita Lineman"; "Phoenix"; "Where's the Playground"; "Galveston". But there's also a lot of stuff only your elderly aunties would like - I mean "Honey Come Back" and "See You on Sunday" in particular are pretty toe-curling songs. In fact, despite being less definitive a hits collection, the European release THE CAPITOL YEARS 65/77 is a better listen, it even includes the Brian Wilson produced "Guess I'm Dumb".

40 great songs, including his big hits:Rhinestone Cowboy, Gentle on my Mind etc. And great not so big hits:Burning Bridges, Manhattan Kansas etc.3 great "movie songs":True Grit, Every thing A Man could ever need, and Any wich way you can.And great "Bonus tracks"including Glen playing The William Tell Overture on his Guitar(that's neat!).If you like Glen Cambell You'll like this collection;If you love Him you'll love these cd's.I've listened to these cd's so many times I've got most of the songs memorized,It's well worth the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wise Choice for an Anthology, August 25, 2002

This is an excellent collection for those wanting just Campbell's best and most popular songs. It includes all the usual stuff, and even includes a few gems from the latter part of his career, including _Sunflower_ and _Still Within the Sound of My Voice_, which is simply one of the best ballads of his entire career. However, I'm disappointed the collection doesn't include the 60s Capitol gem, _Hey Little One_. The 3-CD Essential set, however, does includes this song.
