When I first dropped a laser on this disc my wife said it reminded her of the jukebox at the Labor Center in Leadville when she was bartending there so many, many years ago and that comment just about nails it. This is great stuff from a man with some incredible pipes. There is not a bad cut on the album and I'd be hard put to even choose a favorite. Perhaps, Johns Wesley Riles' Kay, Merle's Make Up and Faded Blue Jeans, or Singletary's sizzling duet with Rhonda Vincent on Conway and Loretta's chestnut, After the Fire is Gone. I hope this cd does well for Mr. Singletary and he leaves the pap of modern Nashville behind.

And Daryle Singletary knows it. He wants others to know it, too. That's why he sings this way. Although the disc is nearly all cover songs, they are presented here fresh and new. Daryle knows his roots and he celebrates them. Thank God he escaped from Gnashville's meat grinder, and thank God for Audium Records, who continue to bring us these great country artists who can't get anywhere with corporate-owned radio (who insist we really don't want to hear this kind of music) and Gnashville labels who want to dig up redneck roots and wipe themselves clean of any "hick" image. Most of all, thank God for artists like Daryle Singletary, who still sing this way. If you're hungry for real country and honky-tonk, help yourself to this album. You will love every second.

5.0 out of 5 stars A New Favorite, December 28, 2002

This is a terrific album. Every track is a winner. I don't remember many of these songs when they were originally released, but Daryle's cover versions are superb. My favorite is "Kaye"-what a great song. And dare I say, the duet of "After the Fire is Gone" with Rhonda Vincent is every bit as good as the original Twitty-Lynn version. This review could go on forever, because every track is worthy of praise. This CD is more than worth the price.
