Ray Stevens' Box Set
:Description:Ray Stevens was born Harold Ray Ragsdale in Clarkdale, Georgia in January 1939. Clarkdale was a small cotton mill town 20 miles north of Atlanta. For more than 40 years, Ray Stevens has been entertaining us. From his novelty songs like 'The Streak', to his tender ballads he has touched us. As with all outstanding writers, Stevens has away of creating characters and situations that highlight the humor in everyday life as well as larger issues and lifestyle trends.

The Legend
: :There are several Cash boxes available, but The Legend--spanning the years 1955-2002 but concentrating on his long tenure at Columbia and, to a lesser degree, his beginnings at Sun--probably belongs at the top of the list. Cash's greatest strengths are dramatized on these four, thematically programmed discs: Win, Place and Show: The Hits; Old Favorites and New; The Great American Songbook (mostly traditional songs); and Family and Friends (collaborations). For starters, consider the staggering depth and breadth of his ...

Will The Circle Be Unbroken - The Trilogy
: :The original Will the Circle Be Unbroken is undoubtedly a landmark country-music recording. A peace offering between rock-reared longhairs and rock-ribbed Nashville patriarchs (and one matriarch, Mother Maybelle Carter), it exposed generations of upstart pickers and singers to old-time country music and its impact is felt to this day. The organizers of the 1971 sessions that led to the initial three-LP set, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, have produced two sequels, the first in 1989 and the most recent ...

The Complete Hank Williams
: 's Best of 1998:Hank Williams rose to prominence at the exact middle of the 20th century, and this fact helps to explain why he remains such a unique figure in country music. Put simply, he is the thread that connects (however loosely) Jimmie Rodgers and Garth Brooks. This 10-CD mother lode brilliantly captures the essence of the man and his spellbinding music. The official studio takes provide the foundation, while the demos, outtakes, and live recordings are the putty ...

Down Every Road
: :For a long time, Merle Haggard has been best known for his least-important music--'Okie from Muskogee' and its sequels, 'The Fighting Side of Me' and 'Are the Good Times Really Over.' All three of these patriotic novelty songs are included on this four-CD box set, but they are dwarfed by the riches around them. Songs such as 'Running Kind,' 'If We Make it Through December,' and 'I Started Loving You Again' eschew sloganeering to draw powerful portraits of working-class ...
