"Here is yet another incredible box set released by Bear Family. This is the later works of Ernest Tubb and the sound is superb. Not only does Bear Family provide 6 CD's of ET, but the usual, detailed, full-sized booklet covering the related discography and era of Tubb's career. While there are quite a few Ernest Tubb cover songs here, there are some real hidden gems here that you will not find anywhere else! This includes: a large selection of songs performed by Jack Greene and Cal Smith....not to mention some incredible instrumentals by the Troubadors. And, if that wasn't enough, There's a full library of duets of ET and Loretta Lynn......I can't recall ever seeing these numbers provided elsewhere. This Box set is worth every cent and is worthy of the highest praise. A++"
"This box set is one of the most greatest sets I have ever owned by the legendary ET and I highly recommend this for every fan of the Texas Troobadoor! This set features his 8 year recording career at Decka from 1966-1975 and the highlight of this set is the classic Another Story, Another Time, Another Place which is the title of the set. His duets with Loretta Lynn are really masterpieces especially my favorite, Sweet Thang. Also Tubb's version of Faron Young's She Went A Little Bit Farther is amazing plus his Merle Haggard songs such as the Bottle Let Me Down and Sing Me Back Home! Words can't express how much I am enjoying this great set and I am so pleased to have every Bear box set by ET's entire recording career from 1936-1975. By the way who is that singer singing songs such as Gone, etc? It can't be Jack Greene or Cal Smith could it? I know that on the set Waltz Across Texas there are quite a few songs which feature these two singers and a bunch of instrumentals by the Troobadoors which are outstanding! In my opinion Ernest sounded great in the 60's and 70's when he had members such as Cal, Jack, Leon Roads, Buddy Charlton, etc. So sit back, relax and enjoy listening to ET! Play it pretty, Leon!"

"The recent purchase of the CD collection of Ernest Tubb's recordings, Another Story was a very good purchase. I bought it as a Christmas present for my wife. She listens to it all the time and really loves it. She plays guitar in their band and was wanting to learn some of his songs they get requests to play. She has already learned how to play those. It was one of the quickest and easiest purchases through Amazon that I have ever bought. That is what country music should still be like.
