5 out of 5 stars Yes, a real country singer.......2007-01-04

I have always loved Chris Ledoux for singing about what country music should be, but I have found another favorite in Royal Wade Kimes. He has a real country sound and the subject of his songs is similar to that of Marty Robbins. I have even corresponded with Mr. Kimes via email; how many of your favorite artists have you had any contact with? Seems like a great guy!

5 out of 5 stars A great, unheralded singer.......2006-11-07

Royal Wade Kimes is a real country singer, easily surpassing all the fluff on country radio. He sings old-fashioned, true-blue country music, and his voice is amazing and unique. If there were any justice in the music business, he'd be a star.

5 out of 5 stars Real Music!.......2003-02-12

It's great to be able to tell who you're listening to, and to be able to tell that the good sound you hear is natural talent and not just computer enhanced, studio music. This is really good music and you can tell it comes from the heart.

5 out of 5 stars DUET WITH GARTH BROOKS IS FABULOUS!.......2002-09-25

THIS CD IS THE MOST UNIQUE SOUND I HAVE HEARD IN AGES. THERE ARE SOME INCREDIBLE SONGS AND ROYAL WADE KIMES HAS A VOICE LIKE I'VE NEVER HEARD. IT'S REAL, FRESH AND INTERESTING. THE DUET WITH GARTH BROOKS IS A REALLY GREAT SONG AND THESE TWO SOUND GREAT TOGETHER. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE WHO LIKES WESTERN MUSIC, KIMES OR BROOKS. IT'S ENTERTAINING!

5 out of 5 stars hank jr fan.......2007-05-18

this is some of the best early music you can find of hank jr .it shows his unique style of being able to grab your attention by showing his early bluesy side and his country side and its cool to be able to compare it to his music today

5 out of 5 stars Prime Hank Jr.......2005-12-28

Yeah, I know most folks enjoy the so-called "Outlaw" Hank Jr., but here is a superb collection of his early works. I have always felt that Hank Jr has had one of the strongest voices in country music; whether imitating his old-man, or doing southern fried boogie. This collection by 20th Century Masters, covers his pre-rowdy days, and includes: "Cajun Baby", "Eleven Roses", "Living Proof", and "It's All Over but the crying". It is said that Hank Jr was conflicted with imitating his father, and of course, the autobiographical "Living Proof" seems to point that out, but it is also quite apparent that Hank was developing his own smooth style, that was quickly becoming polished. Would Hank have gained the popularity he now has if he would have stayed this route???...probably not, as he'd be competing with folks like Bobby Bare. But, if you put away the bandanas, cowboy boots, and sunglasses, there's a fine voice that can compete with anyone else on the scene. And this album is living proof of that.

      5 out of 5 stars If you like Hank you need to listen to this!.......2003-02-16

      I just got this CD and it's great! Hank Jr.'s older stuff is even better than his new stuff though I love it all. This album reminds me a lot "Hank Williams Jr and Friends" from 1975. In fact Living Proof is on both. I think this stuff is a little bit older maybe late 60's early 70's. The best tracks are "Cajun Baby" "Standing In the Shadows" "Hank" and "I'd Rather Be Gone" and don't forget "Living Proof" I you like tradional country, like the kind from the good ol days I'd reccomend this CD. Lot's of steel and Hank's voice is so strong! Check out Hank Jr. and Friends too, before the record companies decide to take these great albums off the shelves and they become out of print!

      5 out of 5 stars Its A great album one of my favorites by Hank Jr.......2003-01-07

      ...Hank Williams Jr is a legend and the song ...called Standing in the Shadows [is] a good song. ... Hank Williams Sr would be proud of his son. You will get your money's worth when you buy this cd its when Jr was young before the beard and before he fell off a 500ft cliff. again this is a great cd. ...

      1 out of 5 stars Platitudinous hogwash shamelessly trading on father's name.......2002-07-16

      Now, I am no great expert of Country & Western music, but I know what I like - and equally, I know horse manure when I hear it.

      This, make no mistake, is horse manure. Everything corny, hayseed-esque, bumpkinious and brainless - everything which gives this venerable strain in the tradition of honest working class folk music its un-deserved place as the butt of the town sophisticate's jokes - is bundled up right here in this thoroughly horrible collection.

      Lest you should make the same mistake I did, BE WARNED: the creator of this record is NOT the late, inestimably great, Hank Williams Senior. He sure wishes he was (he doesn't so much admit it as labour the point) but he's not. This is the dumb-arsed SON of an American Legend. An American Legend himself, he most surely ain't. NO SIR-EEEE.

      The cheek of Polygram to market this title under the title "American Legend" is astounding; only matched by the gall, horror, and humiliation I experienced when I discovered I'd been conned into buying it so easily.

      How bad is it? This bad:

      For musical accompaniment, imagine the hyper-cliched cowboy ridin' along after a hard day's lassoin', lookin' forward to his grits by the campfire, clippety clop sort of beat (like a poor imitation of Hank Williams Sr, really), while a rich, cowpoke barritone intones these words:

      "As I travel around from town to town
      I have a lot of Dad's fans and friends come around
      They say, 'I know Hank would be proud of you, if he was here today,
      That you're carrying on his music this way
      Yes, they say Hank was the all time great
      And we know that you'll just be as good as your Dad',
      But i just smile and say,
      'There'll never be another Hank Williams, friends,'
      And that's the part that makes them sad."

      Pass me a bucket.

      Buying a 12-song "Best of Hank Williams" c.d. is as pointless as buying one on Frank Sinatra or The Beatles. It's like eating a small bite of a sandwich and being satisfied that you ate the entire sandwich.

      Williams was one of the giants of 20th Century popular music and the greatest of all country singers. Even the out-of-print "40 Greatest Hits" double set doesn't do him justice. Go ahead and buy the "Complete Hank Williams." Hank's WORTH it! Besides, prices are firming up on the set, it won't always be available, and you can pass it down to your descendents.

      3 out of 5 stars Too Short.......2000-06-02

      I bought this CD after it caught my eye in the record store. I didn't know much about Hank Williams, aside from the fact that he was important to the early days of country music. As a newcomer to Hank Williams, I'm happy with the CD, but surprised that they could only find 33 minutes of material for this "twentieth century master." (the name of the series). IMHO, if an artist is dead or from the way distant past, a greatest hits should include as much material as possible. I'm sure Hank Williams has more than 12 memorable songs.
