5.0 out of 5 stars Reminiscening
Floyd Cramer was my parent's favorite musician. My mom is deceased and my dad has Alzheimer's. Sometimes I will play "Last Date", which was their song. It helps me remember and relive my parents happiness. Great CD!

I was overjoyed when I first learned that "Collector's Series", my all-time favourite Floyd Cramer audio cassette was released on CD.

3.0 out of 5 stars A CD of mixed emotions, August 17, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Collector's Series (Audio CD)
I was overjoyed when I first learned that "Collector's Series", my all-time favourite Floyd Cramer audio cassette was released on CD.

Let me start off with the good points. I firmly feel that Collector's Series captures the magic of Floyd Cramer more than any other album released. "Last Date", one of his trademark songs, is recorded live and is different (read: better) than any other version released. Specifically, there is more piano, no vocals, and no bells. The version is much more smooth-sounding in my opinion.

The quality of the mastering is very good; each song from the cassette is upgraded nicely to CD with clearer sounds.

However, I am also very disappointed that only eight tracks from the audio cassette made it to the CD version. Only one of my favourite three from the cassette (Last Date, On the Rebound and You Needed Me) got upgraded. Tracks such as "You Needed Me" are sorely missed on this CD because they do not appear on any other Floyd Cramer album.

In summary: Great CD, but it needs more tracks from the cassette version.
