Bobby Bare hits a homer!.......2002-10-16

This was the first album I ever bought, at the age of 12, with some money I had saved by mowning lawns. I listened to it for years until I wore the vinyl record out. "The Winner" and "Marie Leveaux" could be heard on the radio at the time but the real beauty of the album, I think, is the seldom-heard "Roaslie's Good Eats Cafe" and "In the Hills of Shiloh." Today, my wife uses "Rosalie's" to teach her 12th grade English students about descriptive writing. My two boys and I giggle at the "Mermaid", "Paul", "Sure Hit Songwriters Pen", and all the other great ones. Thanks Bobby & Shel for this artistic collaboration -- and for thirty years (and counting) of enjoyment.

An artists artist........2002-03-11

Many of these reviews are good but also erroneous.This is probably the best theme album of all time in any genre. But it was NOT the first theme album in country music. That distinction belongs to Johnny Cash in the early sixties.To appreciate ones music one does not have to denegrate someone elses music or contribution, or to have novice listeners make silly statements without them having the scope to be in the know. Johnny Cash says Bare is his favorite, he also was known as Jennings favorite.He also should be given more credit for the sweeping changes in the artist as being in control of their music.Far before Waylon and Willie , Bare learned from Cash how to rule his music from Nashville producers. Listen and enjoy . They are all favorites - but the last The Winner is a classic!!!!!!!!!!!!! Of any genre. Thanks Mr. Bare for your lifes music. Brad Stender.

not sure if it is the right song.......2002-03-01

I dont know about any review I want to be able to listen to the song befor I rate it Im not realy sure if that is the right song im thinking about if you or some one can tell me where i can listen to the song to see if it is realy the song that i am looking for

I'm Home!!!.......2001-07-24

I think of home when I hear "Daddy what if?" Man, it realy brings me back to my childhood. My Dad and I used to sing this to each other. My Dad is a drunk now. He is a "True Alcoholic" But he and I used to sing this to each other when I was little. I am 29 now. I hope anyone who listens to this will think of us and your own babies, when you hear this song. It is realy wonderful and I am glad that I have finally found it on Amazon.com. Love always with my daddy,..... Tricia
