CD Reviews

Not your Sam Phillips production
David A. Shoenfelt | Akron, Ohio | 05/01/2009
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Very much brought into the contempory world. More sound - background singers and piano are more clear. Roy's voice as always, the greatest. Hints of the ballandeer he would become. This CD includes a great booklet with info on Texas, Texans and Roy. Very high quality jewel box. Besides all the songs from the original Sun Record vinyl release, it includes Roy's demos and undubbed versions. Yes, nothing that wasn't released somewhere else before, but with the original art work, and a total of 37 tracks - go, go, go and stimulate the economy"
Bad sound quality

"VERY subpar, muffled, sound on the first 12 tracks (the ones from the original album release).



No, really, I've rarely heard such bad sound on an "officially" released CD, and to think this is a 2009 edition (not some 1980's, early/bad, CD release !)"
