One of the greatest singers ever

"i'm ashamed to admit, arthur alexander fiend that i am, i never knew he recorded for monument/sound stage 7. So, here come my old friends ace records uk to let me in on this stuff. I'm telling you, you gotta get one of these. The first four tracks were recorded in Nashville with many of the same cats who played on "Blonde on Blonde," the next half dozen in LA with most of the Wrecking Crew, and many others under Reggie Young's direction, so needless to say, the production value is impressive and varied. The songs themselves, save a few odd covers, are some of Mr. Alexander's finest...the frenetic "You Don't Love Me (You Don't Care)" and "I Really Need You" are incredible recordings and easily two of his finest. In fact, there really are no bum tracks here, you can buy this with confidence...this is some of the best country soul you will ever hear. I just wish I'd heard it sooner!"
