1.0 out of 5 stars A disappointment, January 9, 2001

Despite it having only 12 recordings per CD, I had hopes for this set of mostly older country gospel songs mostly by older (50's - 60's) country/gospel singers. What a disappointment. The recordings are new, not old, and seemingly all use the same studio band. The performances are uninspired, the vocals are tired and the singers have lost their vocal range. These singers in their prime did fine country gospel but it's apparent that these recordings were a "come out of retirement" session. There's not a single song of the 36 on 3 CDs that I would listen to again, not when the old recordings are also available.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great traditional hymns sung in the classical country style, February 9, 2002

I first bought this collection at a retail store for a Christmas present for my aunt. She loves it and actually wants to find another set for my grandmother. It's definitely a collection for those who enjoy listening to the "old" classical/western style country music. It's a collection of traditional hymns which I enjoy because I can sing along with it. If you are more into the contempory style Christian music this collection is not for you but if you want traditional old country church style hymns, you'll love this collection.
