Best Country Album... Ever, The - Various Artists

Advantages: Great artists, Fantastic recordings
Disadvantages: A few good tracks missed this set

...of my age were listening to during the 80s. But no matter what i listened to i always prefered my Everlys Brothers tape. As time went on and i began to buy my own records i tended to by singles for chart music but the Albums tended to be Rock 'n' roll and quite a collection of the Everlys. Other artists began to take my interest that were not modern and not Rock 'n' Roll. These were artists like Dolly Parton, Kenny Rogers, John Denver or Johnny Cash. So my biggest interest in Rock 'n' Roll was my early experience with the Everlys but my taste in music appeared to being pulled more and more towards Country.

Advantages: Very wide variety of all types of metal
Disadvantages: many similar songs to those of other heavy metal albums

...I first got this album just as i was getting itno the more classic older type of metal, and it was actually this album which got me listening to hair metal and glam rock, even though its a heavy metal album. The tracks Youth gone wild by skid row and talk dirty to me by Poison are 2 great hair metal tracks, but thats just me. The band on this CD range from Poison to Megadeth with everything in between and if you like a wide variety of metal and hard rock I'd reccomend this album. With 20 tracks on the first disk and 16 tracks on the second there's loads of different bands if you're just discovering some of the hardesrt rawest metal songs ever made.... Read review
