5 out of 5 stars Right Down the Line Gerry Rafferty.......2007-03-25

i've been serching for hios cd's since the 80's no one had them, or they had never heard of him.. i'm talking Tower Records in Boston

1 out of 5 stars The CD is great only this one was damaged.......2007-01-05

this is a great CD for us older folks. I was disappointed that the CD was unopened but damaged. I was not able to use it and had to order another.

5 out of 5 stars Enjoyable Throughout.......2006-04-24

I haven't heard any other Gerry Rafferty Albums just knew a few of his songs from movies and the radio. What I'm saying is if you aren't very famaliar with his work this is a good place to start. I found the album to be enjoyable throughout and each song is interesting in unique.

What does it sound like? It's not a fast paced or rocking type of album but it does have some enjoyable guitar work in it. I really enjoyed the guitar on "Right Down the Line" which you may recognize from light rock radio.

One song that really sticks in my head is "The way that you do it".

Another interesting one with a fun groove is "tired of talking" which features a bagpipe sounding instrument which is probably some type of keyboard or flute.

If you don't mind 70's light rock and have an open mind you will really enjoy this record.

3 out of 5 stars Right down the line.......2006-01-22

I just love Right Down the Line and Gerry Rafferty's voice. This is the sole reason I bought this CD, although I found other very good tracks on it.

3 out of 5 stars "City To City" is still Rafferty's best release.......2004-06-15

This is a decent mix of Rafferty's hits... though there are really only a handful of his songs that made a major impact back in the late 1970's for the artist. "Baker Street" is THE song that made Rafferty a house-hold name. Great song, great story, great saxophone. "Right Down the Line" is probably his 2nd most well-known song. After that, it's hit or miss on this "Best Of" disc for the casual Rafferty fan. However, with that being said, I truly feel "City To City" from 1978 is/was a much better release. "City To City" was a COMPLETE album (featuring the hits "Baker Street" AND "Right Down The Line"... as well as the almost classics "Home And Dry" and the title track "City To City"). One other bad thing about this "Best Of" release is the remixed rendition of "Baker Street"... why mess with a classic? Rafferty's voice seems to echo like he's in a tunnel, as well as the saxophone solo(s) just being too loud and overbearing. While this "Best Of" package is a nice intro to the artist... "City To City" remains his overall best release.
