- Quality Collection, but Interesting Song Selection
Once again, another Quality Collection from Tom T but as with other collections, obvious songs associted with Tom T are missing. The two most blanant obmissions are "Sneaky Snake" and "I Love", I would have thought these two songs could have been included since they are two of his biggest and well known songs. Also there is no order to the selections, it is like they threw the songs in a pile and drew them out with their eyes closed. The booklet included has a Bio on Tom T but no track to track insight or information about the songs.
However, given the fact that much of Tom T's music is unavailable or unissued on CD this is a refreshing collection, 50 songs included in the set and just about every track is worthy of being included. It just does not make sense to leave out some of the singer's biggest hits. However, if you buy the old Greatest Hits Vol 2, which includes the big songs left off this box set, in addition to this box you will have the best songs from this country legend

- The perfect compilation of music by the storyteller
The title of this boxed set says it all. On the box set are many of his classics ranging from hits to album cuts. There are great liner notes by Robert K. Oermann, who compiled the set and the songs speak for themselves. If you want to listen to country storytelling at its best, pick this collection up. The songs on this collection are what he should be remembered for and they confirm that he is the storyteller. - An Americam Classic
A great collection from a Master. Everything that you expect from the Storyteller. If you only purchase one Tom T. Hall album, This should be it. - Grew up listening to Tom T Hall, wonderful collection.
I grew up listening to Tom T Hall and really enjoy this collection. It has all of his greatest songs and then some. I have a few old LPs, but no way to listen to them. So, the CD collection allowed me to enjoy the songs again. I love this collection of songs. Great music. 2 personas de un total de 4 encontraron útil la siguiente opinión:
- Storyteller, Poet, Philosopher--Tom T. Hall
First of all, Tom T. Hall is a great person and a gentlemen as I got to meet him when he was just getting started, traveling with his friend Jimmy C. Newman whom he wrote "D.J. for a Day", and "Artificial Rose". At the time that I met him, he had his first hit "Harper Valley P.T.A." with Jeannie C. Riley which was a number one hit.
This collection is the best overview of his career. Many of his albums are not out of print and this group represents his top 20 singles and album cuts. This is a "must have" collection for the Tom T. Hall fans; the Rod McKuen of country music.
