Tracy Byrd Album: “The Definitive Collection”
 Description :
Liner Note Author: Rich Kienzle.
<p>Recording information: 1993 - 2003.
<p>Superseding all of Tracy Byrd's previous best-of compilations, the expansive 18-track THE DEFINITIVE COLLECTION lives up to its title. As part of the second generation of new traditionalist country stars who learned at the feet of George Strait and Randy Travis, Byrd has always struck a balance between blue-collar good-time party boy and ballad crooner. The two sides are nicely represented here by, among other tracks, the rowdy "Lifestyles of the Not So Rich and Famous" on the one hand, and the weeper "Don't Take Her, She's All I've Got" on the other.

- Are these songs really remastered?.. NO!
I bought this cd hoping to have remasters of the Tracy Byrd hits from his MCA releases. No remastering here! They have just taken his hits & compiled them into a nice collection. When I played the first track, 'Holdin' Heaven' next to my old one from the 1993 MCA cd, it is exactly the same. No difference in sound quality at all. And the rest are the same. Now, usually when the claim of 'remastered' is bogus, they at least have made the tracks louder, to fool you into thinking it's better. Not here. They are all the exact same as his original MCA recordings! So, if that's what you're looking for here.. a remastered set of Tracy Byrd hits, buyer beware. If not, well.. it is the most complete collection of his best work & they are some great old songs! L. Kuhn (Erie, PA) - October 24, 2012
- Great!
The CD came very quickly. I think in less than five days. It was exactly what I was looking for and am enjoying it very much. 1 of 4 people found the following review helpful:
- Excellent!
In excellent condition, nicley wrapped, my mom loved it. I love his music as well and would recommend this compared to getting Tracy Byrd's new greatest hits CD. 1 of 8 people found the following review helpful:
- Tracy Who?
Okay CD, nothing that really stands out like other artists such as Rascal Flatts or Brooks and Dunn. Saw him in concert and finally put a name and face to some good songs that I had heard on the radio, but never one's that made me stop and say to myself, who is that singer? I need to get his CD. |
