As another reviewer points out, the songs included in this volume that became hits for Webb were all re-recorded some years later. For example, there's no Red Sovine to be heard on track 5, despite the indication this is so in the content list on the reverse. Also, you won't hear The Wilburn Brothers on track 3 - Sparkling Brown Eyes, And yet both Sovine and the brothers were very much part of those two original hits!

As for these being "22 hits" (they even claim "22 greatest hits" in the small oval just below Webb's picture on the cover) - well, tracks 13 to 22 were never hits - not even in Webb's wildest imagination.

All of this could have been pointed out in the two pages of liner notes provided, not to mention on the cover of the disc. But they don't.

Opt for a better compilation such as the MCA release Webb Pierce - King Of The Honky Tonk. This is just basically re-done junk.

This was ordered for a dear friend in her 70's that loves Webb Pierce and she is moving away from us to go back to Wisconsin. It was ordered and shipped but unfortunately it never made it here. I e-mailed your customer service and was told that a new one would be shipped out the same day. Sure enough 3 days later here it was. No hassle. Absolutely great service and customer satisfaction. I will not hesitate to order again. Once again I thank you for all you have done. Your great.
