It's telling that Richard Marx broke into the music business singing backup vocals for Lionel Richie and writing songs with Kenny Rogers and Chicago, for he kept to the straightforward, middle-of-the-road approach of those acts once he became a recording artist in his own right--not that there's anything wrong with that. A dependable hitmaker throughout the late '80s and early '90s, Marx scored with rockers ("Don't Mean Nothing," "Should've Known Better"), and ballads ("Right Here Waiting," "Endless Summer Nights") alike. Greatest Hits collects those songs as well as the lion's share of his high-end chart action--of which there was plenty, proving that a devotion to craft sometimes pays off better than fickle inspiration. --Daniel Durchholz

5 out of 5 stars All of your favorites are here!.......2007-07-09

I attended both high school and college in the 80s, and I have to admit, Richard Marx holds a special place in my heart. I remember the summer of 1989, when then-boyfriend (now husband) and I were five hours apart, and the song "Right Here Waiting," with its opening lyric of "Oceans apart, day after day" seemed like it was written for us. Okay, it's corny, I know, but who WASN'T moved by corny music in the 80s? And the song that actually made me buy this CD isn't corny at all: it was "Hazard," a haunting, lyrical tune that captivated me from the moment I first caught the video for it years ago. Plus, this CD shows that Marx can rock, too, with songs like "Should've Known Better." Overall, a fun trip down memory lane for 80s music enthusiasts; highly recommended!

RICHARD MARX HAS TALENT PURE TALENT & THIS CD REMINDES ME OF ONE OF THE BEST LOVE SONGS OF ALL TIME

5 out of 5 stars Richard Marx Greatest Hits.......2007-03-28

Since changing all my cassettes to cd's, I couldn't wait to get my cd. There's one song "Coming Back" I could listen to 24/7. Since being with Amazon for quite some time now, I've really enjoyed one-stop shopping when looking for the best deals and hard to find music. CD was in great condition

4 out of 5 stars Good summation of his works.......2007-03-26

Richard Marx is well-known for his sappy ballads much more than for his attempt at rock music. This compilation is a good summation of his talents, as most of the album is focused on his popular ballads that became his signature hits. "Endless Summer Nights" is more of an up-tempo ballad, but ended up as one of his biggest hits. The rhythmic tempo, along with nice background melody makes for a nice song to relax to. "Angelia" is another one of his hits that became popular, despite it sounding different than his more traditional-sounding ballads. If you prefer the traditional style of ballads, accompanied by nice piano sounds, "Right Here Waiting" and "Until I Find You Again" are nice ones to listen to. "Hold On To The Night" is a nice ballad as well, with more of a soothing background than the piano-focused sounds of his other hits. In all, this album is a nice compilation of Richard's softer hits, which were more popular than his up-tempo tracks. With this album, you probably won't find too much need to buy any of his other albums. Check it out!

4 out of 5 stars Good one even for the guys!.......2007-03-24

Richard Marx was and is highly underrated! His music is the classic mainstream pop rock the brings back memories of the late 80's and early 90's! My favorite track is "Satified" because just listening to it when you feel down can bring you back up and your whole mood will change. Mr. Marx has a unique raspy voice that separates him from the rest which only his songs require.
I highly recommend this CD.

4 out of 5 stars Jim Reeves.......2007-06-08

Good compilation. However, on some of the numbers the background music practically covers Jim's great voice. I know strings were in at that time, which really dates the recordings, but somehow they could be toned down a bit. Altogether, a great addition to your collection.

5 out of 5 stars Jim Reeves Greatest Hits.......2007-01-09

Just a true pleasure to sit back relax and listen. Everysong is enjoyable and the velvet voice of Jim Reeves is evident in every selection.

I introduced my elderly parents to the world of CDs by buying them a very easy CD player to use and the Jim Reeves CD was one of the first CDs I purchased for them. They love the selection of songs and are really enjoying it.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome Voice!.......2005-08-09

This guy has got the richest most sincere voice in the history of male singers in my book. Sweet, sad and silly lyrics adorn all of these songs, and his voice just adds to the quality of the overall music. I definitely recommend this for those who enjoy oldies but goodies.

BELA FLECK & THE FLECKTONES - Greatest Hits of the 20th Century
-
I was introduced to Victor Wooten solo stuff a few years back and was, needless to say, amazed! Through him I found out about Bela Fleck. I had first purchased `Three Flew over the Coo-Coos Nest' (Also amazing) then I followed with this stunning hits album. This is a good place to begin for newbies.

For those that do not know Victor Wooten is the god of bass... He makes Les Claypool, Flea, Geddy Lee, and the like all sound like amateurs. His brother Roy AKA `Future Man' plays the Drumitar (A Combination of a Synth, Drum Machine and a Guitar.) and Bela, plays the Banjo.

The band fuses, Bluegrass, Funk, Jazz, Rock, Country, and more... This album covers a span of roughly 10 years and has many classic songs.

If you like creative, extremely talented music or if you are a Bass or Banjo player, (or by some really fluke chance have a Drumitar) you need to get this CD. (And their other CD's!!!)

Favorite Songs: Shocktime, Sinister Minister, Vix 9 and Roadhouse Blues.

4 out of 5 stars Decent place to start if you would like a sampler of them.......2006-02-18

Although alot of the songs I became attached to aren't on this single disc, there are still some good examples of what this band has done over the years...as well as a few that havn't been released previously on CD. Each one of their original studio CDs kinda took a life on its own...each encompassing a certain era of the Flecktones throughout their career. Especially with the change from Howard Levy to Jeff Coffin, there are definite flavors from one CD to the next...maybe I only see it that way. Anyway, if you are starting out listening to this band, keep that in mind as you go through each song. Each cut, if you like it, would probably mean you would like the disc that it came from. This disc does do a nice job of giving examples from the different time periods of the Flecktones time as a band.

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic...an eyeopener to those who do not know Fleck.......2001-06-23

I bought this CD on the advise of the Tower records manager in Bangkok ( good taste)whilst never having heard of Bela Fleck and the Flecktones.

It was an absolute eye-opener and I am really hooked. The opening with "Sinister Minister" makes you sit up straight and, yes, I cannot wait ontil I have found a good live version of this track.

The combination of banjo, mandolin and the virtuoso bass work of Vince Wooten does not cease to amaze me. It contains so many traditional elements and, yet, it is so contemporary.

In this age of throw away music it is very satisfactory to listen to a band where every individual member is in absolute control of his instrument and indeed a master on it.

It is difficult to put this music into a category except in the category of "very good music". It may be true that for the real aficionados this may not be the best ( see other reviews) but I think for those not familiar with this band it is a very good introduction.

I will certainly go out now and buy "Live Art".

4 out of 5 stars Good, but not the best.......2000-02-16

Any Flecktone fan will of course add this to their collection, but the 'Greatest' Flecktone work is 'Live Art'. The two new tracks are classic Flecktones. Buy 'Live Art' first, and then you'll want 'Greatest Hits of the 20th Century'.

4 out of 5 stars I love the Dirt Band.......2006-07-09

This CD does give you the essence of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. I would recommend it.

5 out of 5 stars Great collection of hits.......2006-01-18

This cd of Nitty Gritty Dirt Band songs is great for a starter collection. Of notable interest on this cd is Mr. Bojangles, which is presented here in the shorter "B" side version of the song. The song was issued on both sides of the original 45, one with a minute and a half long prelude, then the song kicks in. When you flip the 45 over you get this version, which actually starts differently than the version on the A side 45.

For a very nice cheap budget price, this cd is a near definitive overview of their early hits, and I recommend this to anyone. Some of the other great songs on this cd are Buy For Me The Rain, House At Pooh Corner, and Will The Circle Be Unbroken.

If you want to dig a little deeper into the band's music, other cds that I recommend are "Dirt, Silver and Gold" for more songs from this era (which includes the original A side version of Mr. Bojangles), and also "20 Years of Dirt" for "Dance Little Jean".

Again, the B side version of Mr. Bojangles is on this cd, and it is in fact hard to find on cd. This cd has the basic early hits by the group, and is a must for anyone who likes Mr. Bojangles and wants to hear more of their hits.

5 out of 5 stars Great album!.......2004-01-05

This is my only album of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and it is great. I hadn't even heard of them until the 4th of July last year when they came to my town. I didn't get to see them play but I heard they were great so I bought one of their cd's and loved it. One song I wish was on here though is "Fishin' in the Dark." That is a great song. Great cd and worth the buy.

5 out of 5 stars The Dirt Band's Greatest Album.......2002-04-16

This is the greatest collection of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's late 70's and early 80's songs that I have seen. I orginally had the cassette version, and I just had to find this exact album on CD. This album WILL take you back to a time 20 years ago and let you feel like you did back then. The melodies capture a great era of music that we will never see again. I have frequently heard An American Dream on pop music stations. I even heard Make a Little Magic in a department store last week. This is just a can't live without for any Dirt Band fan. I can only wish that this particular album was more available on CD!

4 out of 5 stars Real Country.......2001-07-17

It is hard to find good country music with all the new stuff comming out. But when I listen to the CD it brings back thoughts of being back on my farm with my family. I remember where I come from but more importantly makes me appreciate how things are now. It has a good feeling about the whole CD I really love it. Listening to the CD makes me feel like I am back in the glorious states once again.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent CD.......2006-02-17

I heard a Tanya Tucker song on the radio and immediately went to Amazon to see if I could get a CD I liked. Well I found one. This is a great CD that highlights the talent of Tanya. I highly recommend this CD.

5 out of 5 stars Wow!.......2002-08-24

I bought this CD because of "Its a Little too Late". Tanya's distinct voice and awesome lyrics drew me to the song. Even though I bought this CD for one song in the beginning, I have to say that this CD is a big suprise because I love every song. Usually you get those albums that you skip over songs but not this one! I own 60+ country albums and this one is one of the top 5 that I am always playing. Tanya has the old country sound... none of the pop stuff played today. Some songs are up-beat, but all have great lyrics. Tanya will get your dancing and singing along. A few of my favorites are: "Walking Shoes", Down to my Last Teardrop", "Tell me about it", "Two Sparrows in a Hurricane", Hangin' In," It's a Little too late", "If your heart Ain't busy tonight", & "Delta Dawn". I'd recomend this CD to anyone who loves the REAL country sound!

5 out of 5 stars Tanya's best of the nineties.......2002-07-28

Although Tanya signed for Capitol in 1986 and had many classic hits, this particular compilation focuses almost entirely on her nineties music. Tanya's first Greatest Hits for Capitol appeared in 1989 and the only track from that which is included here is My arms stay open all night. The next compilation was Greatest Hits 1990-1992. All ten tracks from that set are included here.

So, if you want Daddy and home, Strong enough to bend, Love me like you used to, Just another love, I'll come back as another woman, If it don't come easy, I won't take less than your love, One love at a time and It's only over for you, buy that first Capitol Greatest Hits.

One real oldie included here is Delta Dawn, a re-recording from 1991's Greatest Hits Encore, an album which contained re-recordings of ten of Tanya's seventies hits for Columbia and MCA.

There is one previously unissued track for Tanya's long-standing fans (like me), the opening Black water bayou. To me, that alone is worth the price.

The other tracks are all from the nineties, mostly after 1992. You can't fit all Tanya's Capitol hits on a single CD, but if you buy this and that first Greatest hits, you'll have all the essentials.

5 out of 5 stars good overview of one of country's all-time greats.......2002-01-05

Tanya Tucker marrived at Capitol Records in 1986. By then, it had been five years since her last big hit at MCA and her peak recording years appeared to be long behind her. Yet hooked up with Jerry Crutchfield (one of her many producers at MCA),

Tucker immediately hit the top of the charts with a pair of Paul Davis-written tunes dealing with rocky relationships: "One Love At A Time" and "Just Another Love." Her voice was now stronger than ever, and the consistently first-rate material Crutchfield assembled over the past decade allowed Tucker to demonstrate her full versatility, be it rowdy toetappers ("If It Don't Come Easy," "Down To My Last Teardrop"), moving ballads ("Two Sparrows In A Hurricane," "Soon"), bluesy scorchers ("You Just Watch Me ," "Some Kind Of Trouble,") or defiant rockabilly ("Walking Shoes," "It's A Little Too Late").

After one more top ten hit "Little Things" in 1997, Tucker left Capitol, feeling she wasn't getting adequate promotion at the Garth-obsessed label (she was right). Unfortunately, Tucker has not been signed to a label since then. If you don't own any other Tucker retrospectives, this is the place to start with 20 tracks far surpassing other Tucker best-ofs.

1 out of 5 stars Absolutely Awful.......2007-02-04

Did not sound at all like the original, I have old 45rpms of these and believe me, do not waste your money if you know anything at all about Bobby Bare's singing. This CD sounded like it was recorded from some practice session of a Bobby Bare wantabe.

3 out of 5 stars It's Better Than No Bare at All, I Guess.......2004-10-23

I recall a pair of sisters, lovely girls without dates, playing "Shame on Me" over and over on the jukebox, but Mr. Bare has never emphasized his 1962 successes (including a much underrated "To Whom It May Concern"). He was playing a small country bar in Chicago just two years later when I saw him doing those songs, medley style, including "Dear Wastebasket" and "I Don't Believe I'll Fall in Love Today". Not long afterwards came "Detroit City" and he was in the big time. Pity that all of the songs here couldn't be the originals (like "To Whom it May Concern"). Go for the CD that has those originals if you want to be stirred by memories. This isn't it.

1 out of 5 stars Another Rerecording.......2003-02-20

Bobby's voice as with all others has lost the range he used to demonstrate. This is not the worst case of a "re-do" I have had the displeasure of hearing, but it still is far short of the original offerings of Bobby during the 60's. As a courtesy to all involved, Be aware these are not all of his original recordings. Buyer Beware!!

5 out of 5 stars Bare and Friends.......2000-04-08

Has anyone ever heard of this album? To my understanding, its available only on vinyl. The song in particular i'm looking for is "THE SINNER'S PRAYER". This was one of the best albums ever put out by this artist, and I can't find even the title anyplace. Its like it vanished from existence!

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Great disc for the Buck Owens fan .......2007-01-05

Although it took quite awhile to get here, this imported cd is a great and comprehensive cd for the Buck Owens fan. It has forty hits and is a varied sampling of Buck Owen's legacy as a country star. The great thing about this record is that is chronicles the past and present, having hits like "Streets of Bakersfield" on one of the discs. Another aspect of this cd is its great quality; the sound is exemplary.

The influence Owens had as a country artist is really illustrated in this cd, as there are many songs in here that you have probably heard in shows, movies, or remakes, namely "Act Naturally", "Johnny B. Goode", and "Under My Spell." One of my favorite songs is "Sam's Place." This is a fantastic CD to add to your collection, especially if you are a country music fan!

5 out of 5 stars What Is Truth?.......2007-02-16

Answer to the above question: Johnny was the truth. I have the tune on vinyl but it's not easy to find it on CD. This is missing some of what I consider to be essential Cash tunes like Get Rhythm, I Still Miss Someone, Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down and Folsum Prison Blues. But it more than makes up for those omissions by having Understand Your Man, The One on the Right, What Is Truth and I Got Stripes. It's just impossible to compile the Man onto one disc unless it's an MP3. None of the American Recordings tunes are on this either but you can find a good compilation of the Rubin era on Unearthed.
