5.0 out of 5 stars Great Storyteller July 14, 1999
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
This is a wonderful compilation from one of the greatest musical storytellers of our time. Songs such as "The Winner" and "Marie Laveau" capture the listener in a musical net that will not let go. In my opinion, this album contains what modern country music lacks, it has a soul.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent album August 31, 2005
By Jess
Format:Audio CD
One of the better "Best OF...." albums. To be honest, I care little for the sound of '70's country music, although there were a few notable exception. Bobby Bare, despite his early Rock-n-Roll venture, stayed true to form and put out a few memorable hits for a wasted decade. I could do without the obligatory "father to son" talking song so popular in this era (Thank you Red Sovine, Bill Anderson, etc....), but the good far outweighs the bad on this album. Not sure that Bobby was ever an "outlaw" (and after judging by today's definition of that crowd, he may not want to be associated with the term anyway!), but he did things his own way; which is why I think he flourished during the death of the Nashville Sound and the increasing Disco beats of Barbara Mandrell and Kenny & Dolly. The recordings on this albium are superb, and you can really appreciate Bobby's straight-forward, no-nonsense, approach to presenting a song. Overall, I give the album a grade of B.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE GREATEST COUNTRY SINGER OF ALL TIME October 10, 1999
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
BOBBY BARE IS AS WARM AS HIS MUSIC. I HAVE HAD THE PLEASURE AND PRIVELAGE OF MEETING HIM AS WELL AS HIS DEAR WIFE, JEANNIE AND SON, BOBBY JNR. WHAT GREAT PEOPLE. IN MY OPINION, BOBBY IS THE GREATEST COUNTRY SINGER OF ALL TIME AND CAN INTERPRET A SONG LIKE NO ONE ELSE CAN. HE HAS FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON NOT BEEN GIVEN THE RECOGNITION HE DESERVES BY THE COUNTRY MUSIC ASSOCIATION. HE SHOULD BE IN THE COUNTRY HALL OF FAME FOR ALL HE HAS DONE FOR THE COUNTRY INDUSTRY
