The southern gentlemen Sonny James was a major hitmaker in the 50's thru the early 80's. This collection begins in 1972 when Sonny left Capitol for Columbia. Sonny had a long string of hits for the label in the 70's and then went to Monument with moderate chart sucsess. This collection is very good but not as good as his vintage Capitol recordings. Collector's Choice music is excellent in providing collectors with music they want but can't find elsewhere. Sonny James should be in the Country Music Hall of Fame.

It is getting harder to find real country music these days; it is refreshing to be able to here what the genre should sound like or at least resemble. This is well mastered and a treat to listen to. If you like Sonny's music this is a must.

I was looking for some of the "oldies" and these are great!
Brings back lots of good memories

I wanted Sonny's music before he was inducted into the Hall of Fame. He was always on my stereo during the 60's and then I kind of lost him. Now he is back.

Excellent compilation of post-Capitol years. Sound is awesome. Better liner notes would have been nice, like who produced the tracks. Glad he's in the Hall of Fame, finally.
