| | Kenny Rogers 42 Ultimate Hits CD Kenny Rogers Discography of CDs
(5 Customer Reviews)
Beginning with the trippy backwards guitar of the First Edition classic "Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)," the collection offers a five-track sampling from Rogers's late-1960s/early-70's folk-rock years. The collection then delves into a broad selection of his best-known work, from the country tale of "The Gambler" to the smash Dolly Parton pop duet "Islands in the Stream." In addition, 42 ULTIMATE HITS includes key tracks from the '90s and three previously unreleased songs, making this double-disc package one of the most satisfying Kenny Rogers sets available.
Though the sheer number of Kenny Rogers hits suggests that best-of compilations will continue to endlessly appear over the years, few of the many collections issued have attempted to capture the full range of the bearded country/pop singer's art. For listeners not quite ready to commit to Capitol/EMI's mammoth four-disc THROUGH THE YEARS: A RETROSPECTIVE box set, 42 ULTIMATE HITS provides a nicely comprehensive overview.
Personnel: Kenny Rogers (vocals); Dolly Parton, Dottie West, Kim Carnes, Ronnie Milsap, Sheena Easton, Billy Dean, Whitney Duncan (vocals).

Best ever... What a great CD this one is. So nice to have the duets with Dolly, Dottie, Sheena, and Kim. You won't want to turn this one off! Submitted by Cathy (Wilmington, Delaware) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Great stuff, for country AND pop music fans I'll be the first to admit I'm NOT a country music fan, but Kenny Rogers, who traditionally fell under the category of country music, has put out some wonderful music that crossed over into the pop category. It's all on this disc, and while much of it still has that country flavor, some of his ballads, like "She Believes In Me", You Decorated My Life", and "Crazy" are just so pleasing to listen to when I'm in the mood for something mellow and easy.
