5.0 out of 5 starsA great introduction
By Friendlycard on October 18, 2007
Format: Audio CD
JD Souther has long been known to afficionados of West Coast music as the writer of a string of hits for others, and as a superb performer in his own right.

Hits written or co-written by Souther include several Eagles tracks ('New Kid in Town', 'Best of My Love', 'Heartache Tonight', 'Victim of Love') and others recorded by artists as diverse as Linda Ronstadt, George Strait, Glenn Campbell and James Taylor. The enduring appeal of Souther's compositions is underscored by the Eagles' choice of a Souther song for the first single off their new album.

This compilation of his own recordings, together with an excellent new EP ("Possible Weather") and a forthcoming new album (his first since 1984), should give his music the higher profile that it so richly deserves.

The tracks on this album have be taken fairly equally from Souther's four solo albums, with two tracks from each (of two) outings with the Souther Hillman Furay band. Inevitably, as with any compilation, some fans will find some surprising ommissions but, in Souther's case, this is largely a reflection of the sheer quality of his back catalogue - this could so easily have been a double CD.

Given Souther's reputation as a song writer, it should be stressed to any potential purchaser of this CD that he is also an outstanding performer, as anyone fortunate enough to have taken in his 2007 UK tour will attest.

This album can be very strongly recommended. If you enjoy it, your next purchase should be 'Black Rose', a superb solo effort released in 1976.

4.0 out of 5 starsBest of JD
By G. Moore on March 30, 2009
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
This is a terrific album by an excellent and very much under-rated artist. I don't believe there is one poor track on this album. I regularly listen to it particularly whilst driving and have not tired of the smooth vocals and terrific lyrics. Do yourself a favour and buy this one.

3.0 out of 5 starsPretty good.
By Jack H. Hopkins on May 13, 2009
Format: Audio CD
This is a pretty good collection of Souther's songs, although a number of good ones are missing, including Prisoner In Disguise, Out To Sea, Simple Man Simple Dream and others. Till The Bars Burn Down should not have been included in my opinion. Still better than his new album. And Amazon Dot Com, the lead track is called White Wing, not White King.

4.0 out of 5 starsA great collection from an underrated career
By Misha on August 18, 2011
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
I'll keep this brief. JD Souther is an incredible songwriter from the Jackson Browne/James Taylor mold, but his desire to be a loner has kept him from greater commercial success as a performer. He just cashes the stack of checks he gets from his work for The Eagles and Linda Ronstadt and makes records every 20 years or so. This collection is terrific, but I would have preferred some other choices, in a couple of cases. This, along with Souther's new record of old songs " Natural History" make a concise collection that show his brilliance and his wonderful voice. Start with these two, and you'll eventually want everything he has recorded.

5.0 out of 5 starsObscure Great
By Joan in NYS on November 30, 2010
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
JD is one of a few of what my husband and I call "obscure great" singer-song writers out there. Gene Clark and Jesse Winchester are two others. They all lean a little to Folk and County Rock.
This CD contains most of JD's great songs Silver Blue, Faithless Love, Only Lonely and more obscure "All I Want" which is one truly great love song. Also a couple cuts with Linda; Hillman and Furay with beautiful harmonies.
JD like Gene Clark and Jesse Winchester if you go thru all their music you will find some undeniably incredible gems and a few stinkers but the gems makes it all worth while.

5.0 out of 5 starsSouther has written many tunes that people love.
By Donna Gleason on March 14, 2014
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
But they may hard-pressed to come up with a name for the composer. For instance, many of his songs are chosen by managers of places that people go to shop, or take care of personal business, for their taped background music. His melodies are easy on the ears, not intrusive in any way.

5.0 out of 5 starsDark As Your Deepest Dream
By Lee Armstrong HALL OF FAMEVINE VOICE on July 20, 2011
Format: Audio CD
John David Souther's songs touch me. There is an ache in the soul, whether for lost love or disappointment in what did or did not arrive. Any anthology is going to have some omissions for a fan. My favorite song of his is "Out to Sea" from his first Asylum album, which is not here. But his sound on great songs like "Jesus in 3/4 Time" and "Silver Blue" melts my heart away. He can also rock out like the opener "White Wing" & "Trouble in Paradise." "Black Rose" builds into a haunting melody with those classic harmonies bolstering J.D.'s strong vocals, "It's as cold as ice and as dark as your deepest dream." "Border Town" is a great overview of this wonderful musician's career. Enjoy!
