4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent CD, but some good hits were left off, February 25, 2001

This is a great CD of one of the great female country groups of the eighties and nineties. The only problem I have with it is that some very good hits were left off. Hits like "Lyin' In His Arms Again", "Mama's Never Seen Those Eyes", and "Men". My feeling is that if you are going to make a "greatest hits" CD, please, make sure that all of your hits are on there before you include songs that were not really "great" hits, like "Don't You"

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent summary of their career, December 14, 1998

This review is from: The Forester Sisters - Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

This greatest hits collection contains 10 of their biggest hits form 1985-1989, although quite a few of their hits that were released from this time period are missing, notably "Lying In His Arms Again," their remake of the Brenda Lee classic "Too Many Rivers," and "Mama's Never Seen Those Eyes." What is on here is some beautiful 4 part harmony that is just as influenced by vocal pop and gospel as it is influenced by country. Some of the highlights on this compilation are their first hit "(That's What You Do) When You're In Love," "(I'd Choose) You Again," "Lonely Alone," "Sincerely", which is a remake of the McGuire Sisters' classic, Letter Home and manymore. All of these highlights plus more make this an excellent CD to add to your collection. Aside from the McGuire Sisters, Chordettes and other female vocal groups from the 1950's, female harmony in the 1980's doesn't get better than this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Traditional southern country music at its best!, April 8, 1999

This review is from: The Forester Sisters - Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

Although the Forester Sisters were at their peak before I became a country music fan, over the past few years I have "discovered" them and their beautiful vocals. Today's modern country and rock lack the soul and feeling that comes across so vividly in this collection. Songs like Letters Home, Lonely Alone, and You Again make this albulm a must have for any true country music fan! :)
