C.W. McCall - Greatest Hits
Date undefinedSure, the songs don't age well, but they were never meant to. This is a period piece and should be appreciated as such. It's beautiful '70s country orchestra craftsmanship and great spoken-word lyrics with awesome comic timing. Extra points for songs that were so prescient about environmentalism and the disappearance of open space, like "There Won't Be No Country Music", though WOLF CREEK PASS's "Old 30" and "Glenwood Canyon" hit that note even better -- just part of the reason it's such a shame that album's out of print/unavailable on CD. I grew up on WCP and still have it on tape. It's his first album and for my money it's still the best -- stark & evocative, far less slick & repetitive than a lot of these post-Convoy songs, which get bogged down fast in novelty riffs & overproduction.

Date undefinedI was so excited when I saw this in CD, when we were kids we listened to the 8 track on many trips to Colorado. It is a combination of songs that will hit almost every emotion.

Date undefinedBack in high school, yes too many years to be counting!!! This was one that we enjoyed listening to. Lots of fun.
I've now introduced my teenage boys to these fun musical stories, and they are played over and over and OVER!!!
Nice to have a family CD in the car that everyone enjoys!!! Fun entertainment for the kids and adults alike.
Looking for the rest of the songs to be released as well!!!
