4.0 out of 5 stars Way too brief retrospective, January 4, 2002

This review is from: Neal McCoy : Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

If you like your country music on the honky-tonkin' light side, you can't go wrong with Neal McCoy. Hits like "Wink," "You Gotta Love That," and "The Shake" (the only new track included ) may border on novelty, but they sure are fun. McCoy's Greatest Hits also presents some top-notch ballads with "No Doubt About It" and a remake of the Casinos "Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye." He even manages to stray from the festive and/or romantic mold with a nice slice of acidity titled "If I Was A Drinkin' Man."

Unlike most major label country artists who have emerged over the past decade, it took three albums before McCoy got his first big hit with "No Doubt About It" in late 1993. He only released a couple of albums since then, and with a few tracks included here that didn't make it near the country top ten, it would appear this Greatest Hits collection was a little premature. It certainly is skimpier than other recent country sets, at ten tracks totalling 33 minutes in length (this was the unfortunate standard in country music just a couple of years ago). Ultimately, like a lot of McCoy's music, this set is fine - just not substantial.

I just love this CD!! From start to finish, Neal McCoy puts on a show. I'd recomend this CD for anyone who's not familer with Neal's music, I think he showcased his best songs on this CD. I think the sleeper hit on this album is Now I Pray for Rain, a little heard song from this artist.

This review is from: Neal McCoy : Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

Every single song on this CD is great. I saw Neal in Merriville, IN not long ago and he was the best entertainer I have ever seen live and I've seen alot of concerts. My 4 yr. old son goes crazy over this CD. Every day to and from preshool (it's a 1/2 hour drive) he has to have it playing. I only wish it also had "If You Can't Be Good, Be Good At It" on there also. Keep it up Neal!!! We truly love you!!!
