by
Rod Stewart
Rhino's 2001 collection The Very Best of Rod Stewart aims to be comprehensive. Rhino has open access to the Warner vaults, and Stewart had many, many hits for the label -- nearly two decades' worth, in fact. During those two decades, he was pursuing the shifting tides of pop fashion, delving into disco, new wave, adult contemporary ballads, and ...

by
The Chieftains
With Long Black Veil, the Chieftains attempted a mainstream pop crossover by recording with rock and pop stars from the Rolling Stones and Sting to Van Morrison and Sinéad O'Connor. Instead of changing their sound to accommodate the talents of their guests, the band plays it straight. As always, their performance is superb; what is surprising is ...

by
Rick Nelson
As a four-CD set spanning Rick Nelson's entire career, this will likely stand as the most thorough overview of the singer's music ever issued. This doesn't mean, though, that it's the best anthology of his work, unless you subscribe to the viewpoint that his post-mid-'60s records were about as good as his pre-mid-'60s ones, since a full two discs ...

by
Gene Autry
This double-CD Gene Autry compilation, though impressive on a sonic level, and reasonably full, isn't quite perfect. Oh, it covers all of the basics and even gives some play to aspects of Autry such as his blues singing, represented by "Dallas County Jail Blues" and "T.B. Blues," that usually isn't familiar to listeners whose knowledge is limited ...

Purporting to be the soundtrack to Elvis' second film, the LP version of this album collected songs used in the film on one side with new material on the other. The weakness of a couple of the movie tunes and the fact that the new songs were leftovers from the sessions used to produce Elvis' first gospel EP and latest single add up to his weakest ...

by
Tony Bennett
Along with his producer, Ernest Altschuler, and his arranger/pianist, Ralph Sharon, Tony Bennett had been searching for a repertoire and a musical approach beyond his long-gone pop work with Mitch Miller of the early '50s and his artistically pleasing but commercially dicey jazz work of the mid- to late '50s. It seemed to be a combination of ...

Red Foley
With his warm, assuring vocals, Red Foley brought class to a country genre that at times was too ragged and reckless for its own good in the 1930s and '40s, and if he didn't stretch boundaries, he didn't really need to, and ended up landing some 41 songs on the country charts between 1944 and 1959. This extensive four-disc, 100-song set has ...

Butterfly Kisses & Other Love Songs

more music like this
by
Various Artists
Butterfly Kisses & Others contains a selection of 14 romantic tunes, most of which have become adult contemporary standards. These versions are not necessarily the original hit singles -- in fact, much of this disc is directed toward CCM audiences, so the productions are glossier than usual, as are the performances. That said, the disc is likely ...

The Story So Far: The Very Best of Rod Stewart

by
Rod Stewart
The irony of calling this two-disc Rod Stewart collection The Story So Far is that it only tells part of the story, and leaves off the one song, 1971's magnificent "Every Picture Tells a Story" from the album of the same name, that would have given this anthology's title some real credence. Oh, "Maggie Mae" is here, as it should be, but the ...

Released to coincide with the cable television documentary of the same name, A&E Biography provides a concise summary of Ricky Nelson's career, from "I'm Walking" to "Garden Party." It isn't quite definitive, since such gems as "Waitin' in School" and "Stood Up" are missing, but it does have the lion's share of Nelson's greatest hits, including ...
