This review is from: Good Old Country: Ladies of Country (Audio CD)

Of course, I should have followed my own advice when picking up a couple of this series issued about seven years ago by St. Clair Entertainment Group, Inc. Despite what it says on some of the headers here in Amazon, these are NOT the original recordings. In small print on the back its says "This album contains new stereo recordings performed by the featured artists" and, if you read some of the other reviews for the various entries, the sound quality, not to mention the voices themselves (which, in many instances, were getting a little long in the tooth when they did them) range from horrible to mediocre to barely adequate.

Also there are no liner notes nor even a discography of the contents to at least tell you WHEN they were recorded. They are, however, cheap, and if you don't mind re-makes of what were some smash Country hits by some of the best artists ever, then by all means get them.

As far as I can determine, the series covered, in addition to this multi-artist release, the following single artists as well: Don Gibson; Patsy Cline; Merle Haggard: Freddy Fender; Charlie Rich; Waylon Jennings; Buck Owens; Porter Wagoner; Kitty Wells; Lynn Anderson; Willie Nelson; Donna Fargo; Kenny Rogers; Ray Price; Jeannie C. Riley; Lee Greenwood; Roger Miller; Faron Young; David Houston; Johnny Paycheck; and Barbara Mandrell.

This review is from: Good Old Country: Ladies of Country (Audio CD)

This CD is the "best of the best" Theses gals sing it from the heart. Many of us other gals can relate to the pain that sometimes comes with loving someone so much.There isn't a song on here that I didn't relate to at some time in my life. These are songs you dont here much anymore. Most radio stations only play current hits ( thats o.k because alot of those songs will someday be one of the best of the best) but, it would be nice to tune in to the radio and here more of the Past artist who did it so well!!! As long as I can get cd's of this quality I will continue to purchase in the future.
