Editorial Reviews

Five years, five #1 hits, six Grammy nominations, and one CMA Horizon Award later, Platinum-selling country superstar Dierks Bentley brings you a collection of his fan's favorites on Greatest Hits/Every Mile A Memory 2003-2008. The compilation features ten of Dierks' most recognizable hits, two brand new songs, and five live songs selected exclusively by his fans! Dierks has given his loyal fans creative control of this project, allowing them to handpick the content of the album, cover art, and the album title. Participating fans will then have their names listed in the liner notes of the project as executive producers. Dierk says, 'I can't think of a better way to get my fans involved than to have them actually act as executive producers of this record'.

This is a great introduction to anyone new to the talents of Dierks Bentley!
And great for his fans as it includes new tracks and live recordings.
All his hits are here like the great uptempos Lot Of Leavin' Left To Do,What Was I Thinkin',Every Mile A Memory,Free And Easy(Down The Road I Go),and the fantastic ballads Settle For A Slowdown,Trying To Stop Your Leaving,Come A Little Closer and Long Trip Alone.All classic songs.
He also includes 2 new tracks Sweet & Wild and With The Band which will no doubt be 2 more hits for him.Plus he has included some excellent Live recordings of 5 of his hits which were chosen by his fans on his website.
Dierks is one of the best male artists in country music today,and this collection shows why.I can guarentee that you will end up buying his albums after listening to these hits.I highly recommend this.

What makes this such a special Greatest Hits Collection is that Dierks left the album's title and cover up to the fans to vote on. He also listed those fans as co-producers and included each of their names in the album's liner notes. Musically, you will find all of Dierks biggest hits, including live concert footage, as well as two new songs. This collection should leave Bentley fans thirsty for album #4.

This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

I am not the worlds biggest D.B. fan but still fan enough to purchase his album. My only real critism is that several tracks at the end of the CD are repeats, meaning they are also at the beginning of the CD. Why you ask? Because the ones at the end are "live" recordings. I personally do not see the point of having two of the same tracks on the same album. It seems to me to be a way that they can charge more because there are more tracks. However, if you are a die-hard Dierks fan, you may think it's worth it. If I had to do over again, I would get the specific albums containing the songs I liked rather than get the Greatest Hits album. I feel that would give you better bang for your buck.
