The seductive music of Don Williams has an insulated quality about it that makes it hard to resist. It's as if the world is swirling out of control around the Gentle Giant, yet he barely raises an eyebrow, blithely singing his soft, calming tunes. Give a Hot Country Star these songs, and their simple truths about love, faith, and country life would seem like platitudes. However, in the caress of Williams's warmhearted baritone, they come off as sincere, timeless nuggets of wisdom. With the barest of accompaniment, Williams took 10 of these 12 songs to the top of the country charts (while the remaining pair reached No. 2) in the '70s and '80s. Though he penned hits for many others, his own smashes usually came courtesy of writers such as Bob McDill and Wayland Holyfield, though Williams, a Texas native, clearly relates to their unpretentious, bucolic sentiments. Throughout, Williams gives good ol' boys back their good name and women back their dignity, and through the strength of his quiet determination, he makes such conventional concepts sound unfailingly hip. --Marc Greilsamer

5 out of 5 stars Don Williams is a real voice master.......2007-01-11

l love the soothing, rich sound that Don Williams has. His voice is so mellow and I just find myself relaxing and forgetting the stress of the day frome the sound of his voice. I really think this is one great cd.

5 out of 5 stars The Best of Don Williams Vol 1.......2006-07-04

This is a great CD and I recommend it to any Don Williams Fan. I received this item within 7 days of my order.

5 out of 5 stars Don Williams The Gentle Giant.......2005-06-12

What a great album. I have this one and I can honestly say that I don't know which one is the best. But how can I say that anyone of Don's song aren't the best. Don has been a favorite of mine for along time. He has such a gentle voice and when you go to one of his concerts - OH MY!!! what a show. They are well worth attending and you will definitely fall in love with this gentle giant and that beautiful voice. I am never afraid to buy any of his albums or CD'S because I know that I will never be disappointed.

4 out of 5 stars Warm Blanket of Country Sounds.......2003-08-15

What bad things can you say about Don Williams? Nothing comes to mind. His voice makes the simplistic, pure songs that he sings sound like nothing else. Mr. Williams' voice is like a warm blanket. If you feel bad, put on "Lord, I Hope This Day Is Good." Feeling a little reminiscent? Play "Good Ole Boys Like Me." There is not a bad song on this album, not one. From "I Believe In You" to "Tulsa Time" and finalized by "Some Broken Hearts Never Mend," this album has it all. I didn't give it five stars for the simple reason that I listen to other artists a little more than Mr. Williams. However, this album ranks as one of my all time favorites and I love listening to it.

5 out of 5 stars Best of Don!.......2001-11-06

If you're a Don Williams fan, you certainly don't need a review to tell you about the songs on this CD. If you're not yet a fan, then this CD is a great place to start. This CD provides the basic "Don Collection", his older works. I don't believe anything on this work was recorded after about 1988...which is good news for you. I believe Don's best work is his oldest. He has a truly beautiful mellow, barritone voice that stands above any other you'll ever hear. Once you've enjoyed this CD, do yourself another favor and buy the oldest works of his you can find (Greatest Hits Vol. 1, or Listen to the Radio).

I noticed the list of tracks for this CD and realized that it contains
either one or maybe two more songs than listed on the web page.
CRYING EYES is on there for sure and maybe one more but I'm only sure about the one.

5 out of 5 stars The king of country.......2000-06-07

The secret of Don Williams is his mighty voice and great composition talent. It's real classic country singer. This CD contains good and easy melody - some of this songs you probably heard in modern singers perfomance. Enjoy!

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Choice For Any Country Music Fan!!!!!!!!!!!!.......1999-10-16

Don Williams is an excellent country music artist and he has always delivered a pure country sound no matter what hit he has released!!!!! I've Been Loved By The Best is my favorite single from Don!!!!!!!!!!

5 out of 5 stars server couldn't respond.......1999-08-17

I think I have all of Don Williams cd's if his voice is on the cd I know I will like it. Even if it was on tape I have listened to it. He travels with me everywhere I go,and when I'm sad and depressed his songs have a way of making me feel that someone cares. I have traveled over 100 miles to see this man sing. I would love to get a photo or autograph but he never sticks around to sign any, and I do not know if he has fam club other than myself. Don keep singing you are MY BEST FRIEND and traveling companion,and LORD I HOPE THIS DAY IS GOOD for you too.

4 out of 5 stars Feel Good Country Music.......2003-08-28

This is an excellent collection. I have it on an LP which I can not longer play. I'm looking forward to the CD to hear these songs again after so many years.

5 out of 5 stars The BEST of Don's "Best" collections.......2000-01-09

This Collection is a great place to start for any fan of Americana/folk styled country music. Smart arrangements, thought-provoking lyrics, and Don's flawless vocal delivery transcend this music to a higher level than typical country. I consider Don's music in the same realm as Lucinda Williams, The Jayhawks, Emmylou Harris, Gram Parsons and the other greats of "roots music"; and that's saying a lot.

5 out of 5 stars Simply the best........1999-09-29

Don is the most underrated country singer of all time in this old cowboy's opinion. He is a class act all around. This album is the epitomy of what Don Williams is all about. I have listened to this CD probably at least 500 times and am not tired of it yet. You will not go wrong with this selection.

4 out of 5 stars A Very Good Collection.............1999-06-08

This is one of those that you keep in your car and listen to it over and over. It has some of Mr. Williams' greatest, the only bad side being there just are not enoght songs.

5 out of 5 stars Don Williams is Wonderful!.......1999-02-22

I have adored him for years. I have been to 3 or 4 concerts of his and they are always a wonderful treat. I love listening to him, it fills my heart and soul. He is the best!

Over and over again, Don Williams continues to put out albums for his loyal fans. Even if they are just re-released old favorites, we still love them and are never disappointed. This is one of the best of his collections and has given me many hours of enjoyment. I may just have to buy another one for when this copy wears out.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Album by Don.......1999-01-06

Excellent collectors album. First actual recording of an previously unrecorded Jim Croce song. Thumbs up all the way.
