I bought this box set after I came across an old Browns LP. Luckily, I found a used copy of the box set, but it is worth every penny. If the word sublime can be applied to country music, then this Box set is endlessly sublime. The most beautiful and hypnotic harmonies I've ever heard. Also, 7 1/2 of the 8 CDs are produced by Chet Atkins, so if you like his sound, this is an exquisite example. Forgive all the long words, but it is hard to put into words how great I think The Browns' music (and this box set) really is.

THE BOX SET IS INCREDIBLE..HAS OUTSTANDING SOUND FROM START TO FINISH..IT MAKES YOU WONDER WHY RCA HAS NOT RELEASED ANY OF THERE CD'S...THIS BOX SET IS LIKE BUYING THEM ALL AT ONCE....IMPORTED FROM GERMANY..IF YOU LOVE THE BROWNS MUSIC OR EVEN LIKE IT..ALL I CAN SAY IS BUY IT..YOU WILL BE PLEASED

The Browns have to be one of the most gorgeous harmony vocal trios i've ever heard, especially in country music. Like someone else have said, some of these songs are so beautiful they'll make you want to weep. I'm not sure if i hear them in there too, but it sure sounds like the Anita Kerr singers are also singing harmony with them, which just makes the harmonys even more fully resonant and achingly gorgeous than it would be without them. I highly recommend this box set to anyone who loves harmony and beautiful songs as much as i do. If you're a music fan at all and you have the cash, i'd go for it. The more people listening and enjoying The Browns, the better of a world it is.

This is absolutely incredible; if you want to know anything about the Browns, this box set will deliver. Another great Bear Family release; I am quickly becoming one of their biggest fans. But back to the Browns, there are more songs here than you could ever listen to in one sitting. I nearly got burnt out after just two CD's; we're talking atleast 30 numbers per CD....and 8 CD's! I honestly dont think it would be possible to compile a more complete catalog of this trio, it is truly amazing. The harmonies Jim Ed and his sisters put forth are crystal clear here and we can thank Chet Atkins for that. I wont waste time or space listing songs, as they are all here; but I will say that if you have not heard "Im in Heaven" or "I Take the Chance", you haven't the slightest idea what perfection is. If I have one criticism, and I really wouldn't call it that, it is that there are a few pop-oriented numbers here.....but that was the direction Nashville was pushing the Browns for many years. Just an absolutely incredible collection.

Hi,I paid about AU $200 for this box set about 5-6 years back & don't regret spending the money.It is one of my best purchases ever.
Giving this only 5 stars does not do it justice.I am still often playing some of the songs every 3-4 days.I think I first heard the Browns years ago when "three bells: & "scarlet ribbons" were new releases & always loved those songs.Some time a few years back I heard a few more of their songs & decided to purchase the box set.This is Harmony at it's very best and if there is anyone as good then I've never heard them.They are in a class of their own,and the lyrics are awesome as well.What more can I say,If you can afford it buy it.

The browns are one of the most beautifu duos in country music I have ever heard. Their harmony is so smoothe it can really bring you to tears listening to their music. I myself don't have a copy of this set yet, but I truly hope I can get it soon. Like the other reviewer said, getting this set is like buying them all at once! All of their recordings are here.l

Folks, I just don't know where to begin to start. This box set, is truly a healing power. It is a gift from God. I have owned it for 7 years and it is the most comprehensive, beautiful, complete collection by the most beautiful trio in any form of music not only country. I am a huge country music fan, but the Browns belong in all genres of music. Like one of the reviewers said, it saddens me deeply that their entire catalog aren't available on single CD's as they deserve it. Jim Ed is a personal friend of mine and I talk with him regularly. He thanked me for ordering this powerful set of recordings and I asked him questions about some of the tracks. What a true gift, dearly my favorite Bear set of all time. Highly, highly recommend. Young people must listen to this group and these beautiful songs as they will become better people. It deeply crushes me very much youngsters today are into all the drugs and so poorly mannered. All because of these filthy music and movies that are out there plus the absurd gossip that is in the media. I am 26 and have adored country music all my life. Listening to these songs, will straighten them out. That is what has happened to me. After listening to country music and the Browns and Jim Ed, my life, totally changed. So, all of you youngsters out there, get this before it goes out of stock. You definitely, oh! absolutely will not regret it. Discs 2 through 8 are the highlights.

This is a classic. Quality product. Enjoy listening to this group with their unique harmony. Product is as advertised.

This is the most exciting collection of the Browns that I have ever come across.If there are any songs that wasn't included in this collection of this fabulous group, I haven't heard them. All I can say is, "It's Fantastic!!" The incerts are very informative also. If you like HARMONY at it's best. You'll love this! ENJOY.
