"One of the most versatile performers in show business...Jerry seems just as comfortable on the silver screen as he has always been as a musician...This two album CD catches Jerry at one of the several high points in his career...from tender love ballads like "with you (missing you)"...to raucous, humor filled quick pickin' romps like "when you're hot you're hot"...he even shines in the bluesy instrumental "turned on"...it almost seems there is more than one Jerry Reed on this CD...all sides of Jerry are satisfying...and there's more to Jerry Reed than the big hits in this package...i've found plenty to love in the other tracks too...the sensitive regret of "i'll be around (in all the old places)...the soft and mellow beauty of Jerry's version of Gordon Lightfoot's "early morning rain"...and the casual humor of "another puff" never goes out of style...i predict that if you listen to this CD, that you'll want to hear more Jerry Reed...it's kind of hard to stop...once you've started."

Jerry Reed is the king!
