| | Faith Hill Hits CD Faith Hill Discography of CDs
 (1 Customer Review)
Six albums into her career, Faith Hill already has more than enough hit singles to fill a best-of album, so this 13 track compilation is a fine summation of her career up to 2007. Containing seven number-one country hits, many of which crossed over to the pop charts, HITS is a fine argument for Faith Hill as one of the top country singers of her time. From pop crossover smashes like "This Kiss" and "Breathe" to more traditional country songs like "Mississippi Girl" and "The Way You Love Me," HITS is a solidly entertaining listen. However, for good measure, HITS also adds three live songs--the Janis Joplin standard "Piece of My Heart," "There Will Come A Day," and "Cry"--as well as one solid new single, "Beautiful." Tastefully packaged and intelligently sequenced as well as musically unbeatable, HITS is a textbook example of how to do a mid-career best-of collection, and is far more listenable than the average uninspired cash-in.

Hits album
 $18.05 
Growing up among Afro-Americans in Berkeley, CA, Greek-American Johnny Otis (born John Veliotes) always identified strongly with people of color. Before he had attained the age of 20 he was gigging with black jazz bands throughout the Southwest, and eventually organized an ensemble deliberately patterned after Count Basie's orchestra. This highly charged album of historical musical artifacts documents the very beginning of Johnny Otis' recording career. With one apparently unobtainable exception, the Classics Blues & Rhythm Series has assembled all of Otis' Excelsior recordings, made in Los Angeles between 1945 and 1947. This provides background and context for his more well-known Savoy material, and indeed for everything this amazing person accomplished during the second half of the 20th century. ...
| | Very Best Of John Michael Montgomery CD (2003)
Hits CD music
$10.29 
Recorded between 1992 & 2002. Includes liner notes by Robert K. Oermann.
Though he has always essentially been a new traditionalist country singer in the vein of Aaron Tippin and George Strait, John Michael Montgomery found his greatest success with smooth, romantic ballads that recall the work of Glenn Frey as much as that of Merle Haggard. THE VERY BEST OF JOHN MICHAEL MONTGOMERY lives up to its title by including most of the singer's finest and highest-charting singles in both styles, in the process collecting a body of work that virtually defines the "new country" phenomenon. Montgomery has the kind of soothing pipes and perfect phrasing that endear him even to ardent country-haters, and his material has the kind of straight-for-the-gut forthrightness that is sure ...
| | Brooks & Dunn Greatest Hits Collection II CD (2004)
Hits music CDs
$9.75
There's no denying that Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn ruled the pop/country roost throughout the 1990s, but this second volume of Brooks & Dunn hits shows that the phenomenally successful duo kept chugging along well beyond their early-'90s heyday. It's mainly occupied by tracks from the late '90s and early 2000s, interspersed with a few new bonus cuts to keep the faithful on board. Those who've kept up with the twosome's career will be familiar with the ground covered by the hits, from the old-school barroom weeper "I'll Never Forgive My Heart" to the nostalgic Bob Seger-goes-to-Nashville country-rock title track of the duo's 2003 album, RED ...

| | Faith Hill Fireflies CD (2005)
Hits album
$15.65 
Coming after the relative commercial disappointment of 2002's pop-oriented CRY--and, not at all coincidentally, Gretchen Wilson's rise as the new Everygirl of country--Faith Hill's FIREFLIES is a blatant attempt to ditch the singer's glamourpuss image and reassert her country roots, such things having become fashionable again. This isn't a problem, however: Shania Twain-like chart pop wasn't Hill's forte, and FIREFLIES brings her back where she belongs.
The first single, "Mississippi Girl," is Hill's best song in years. A Dixie Chicks-like piece of sweet country-pop with a few bluegrass trimmings, the tune was written by country hitmaker John Rich. Rich also penned some of the other standouts here, like the laid-back "Sunshine and Summertime" and "Like We Never Loved At All," a dramatic, '70s-style duet between Hill and her husband Tim McGraw. Three other songs are from the catalogue of alt-country ...

An institution in their homeland, this self-titled release culls material from Status Quo's 1986 In the Army Now and 1988's Ain't Complaining sets (both of which managed to chart Top Ten in the U.K.). Ostensibly, yet another attempt to crack the U.S. market which had ignored the band since their late-'60s psychedelic classic "Pictures of Matchstick Men," it contains no less than five songs that were U.K. hits, including the number two "You're in the Army Now." It's all workman-like, blues-based rock & roll comparable to Creedence Clearwater Revival (in fact, there's a cover of Fogerty's "Rocking All Over the World"), but given a typical '80s production gloss that runs counter to the band's roots. There's nothing particularly compelling (or likely to attract those outside Status Quo's fan base); nonetheless, tracks like "Everytime I Think of You" and "Ain't Complaining are enjoyable enough workouts, as well as the Dave Edmunds-produced "Rollin' Home." ~ Tom Demalon
Recorded, with perfect timing, just as Status Quo hit their live peak, 1977's double Live album is, contrarily, a timeless reminder of just how much power and excitement was ...

Hits album
$13.15
As the only daughter of Southern parents reared in poverty, BRENDA LINTON became aware at a young age of her mother’s dreams for her – that she would have red hair and would sing and dance like Shirley Temple. Today, although the petite redhead has some great moves on the dance floor, she is best known for a voice so pure and melodic that fans have dubbed her the “CAROLINA NIGHTINGALE.” Born in Washington, North Carolina, Linton says she was raised by “a passel of kind-hearted women, including my mother, grandmother, maternal aunts, and housekeepers who treated me as their own.” Her mother overcame childhood polio to train as a registered nurse and began working at the county hospital when Linton was still an infant. Raised in a Baptist orphanage, her father was a major source of strength and understanding in later life. But in her early years, his work as a master plasterer frequently took him away from home, even to the island of Bermuda. “Part of my dad’s compensation was a month in paradise for my mom and me,” says Linton of the experience, “and I guess my love of the road began there.”The singer/songwriter is taking to the road again to promote her first long-player and indie debut, THE SECRET. The album’s 12 songs reflect a range of genres from her earliest influences of roots and classical music to her coming-of-age with folk and protest songs to more recent affairs with jazz and gospel. Co-produced and mixed by JOHN PLYMALE (SQUIRREL NUT ZIPPERS, CLAIRE HOLLY, CAITLIN CARY), THE SECRET is a showcase of Linton’s talents as a guitarist, pianist, writer, arranger, and producer. Using a combination of live recording and overdubbing, Linton and Plymale supported her emotive singing with lush background vocals and a rich palette of lead instruments, including mandolin, penny whistle, harmonica, fiddle, electric and slide guitar, dobro, and saxophone.The six original tracks on THE SECRET demonstrate Linton’s skill at creating provocative music that touches both heart and mind. BARGAIN LOVE and THE GOOD LIFE provide opposite views of the same phenomenon – how living a borrowed life only alienates us from ourselves and others. The jazzy QUIET LOVE touts the wisdom of finding our own answers rather than relying on popular culture. WARRIORS and STILL IN THIS WORLD are perhaps the most personal songs on the album and movingly express the depth of Linton’s sorrow at losing her mother to breast cancer in 2004 as well as the belief that there is still much to recommend the world - a belief made more poignant by her own triumph over the disease a year earlier. The tune for WARRIORS was written by THOMAS WALSH, a gifted composer and multi-instrumentalist living outside Dublin. “I happened upon his lovely melody, Innisheer, and knew it would be the perfect complement for my lyrics,” says Linton. “When I called him to get permission to use the tune, he was at home with the flu; but he was very gracious and we found we had a lot in common. Music often allows perfect strangers ...
