Rating: - If you like Don, this CD is a winner...
Good price, lots of songs, covering just about his entire recording career---what's not to love? Not every song is compelling, but the smooth voice and good taste Don always offered his fans is always present. I like the second half of this better than the earlier songs, but it's OK to disagree with me. Peter Durward Harris of Great Britain, an earlier reviewer whose musical tastes are excellent and whose reviews are always well-done, says this is the best value Williams disc available in the states. I believe him.

The CD had many Don Williams hits. I really enjoyed his laid back delivery of the music.

What can you say about Don Williams that has not already been said. You either just like him or love him. I really enjoy the way he deals with those beautiful ballads. This album is full of really good music. If you would like to include Don in your collection then this album would be a great start. The production is good and the selection of tracks is excellent. Good album of classic Willams songs.

The Don Williams sound is smooth, rich and mellow, but it's also authentically wise and kindly rugged. He's tall and considerate, just as his nickname implies, but he's also famous for his old worn leather hat and friendly face. Don's singing voice and demeaner ... Read More
