      5 out of 5 stars Great compilation of Dolly's music.......2005-04-13

      This compilation of Dolly's RCA recordings includes nearly all the famous songs she recorded during that period such as Jolene, Here you come again, Bargain store, 9 to 5, My Tennessee mountain home, The seeker, Love is like a butterfly, Heartbreaker (which is here despite its omission from the track listing) and many others. Dolly fans (like me) can point to missing tracks that could have been included. With the exception of Islands in the stream, none of them are absolutely essential to the casual buyer, at whom this collection is targeted.

      This compilation is similar to the Australian compilation, Legendary, which included Islands in the stream and Real love, both duets with Kenny Rogers. It would appear that the British branch of BMG were unwilling to pay the required royalties, as the other forty-eight tracks are identical to the Australian compilation. Note that this was previously released in different packaging but also titled Legends.

      Never mind - the absence of some tracks (which can be found elsewhere) is more than compensated for by the inclusion of the original Two Doors Down. Dolly recorded two different versions and this is the only compilation (apart from Legendary) to include the first version on CD. It was available on early vinyl pressings of the album Here you come again but Dolly didn't like it and later pressings had the version that most fans are familiar with from various compilations.

      For those who only want an overview of Dolly's music, this is a good choice, while Dolly's diehard fans will buy this for the original and otherwise rare version of Two doors down.

                2 out of 5 stars Dont Like the Sound.......2006-01-05

                At first listen the mastering on this disc sounds great: the volume level and the bass are both way up compared to other collections of Dolly's material. However, with repeated listens the bass becomes obnoxious and overpowering, and makes the whole thing sound a little muddy. I prefer the mastering on The Essential Dolly Parton.

                3 out of 5 stars Just a Ok Collection, 4 songs making CD debut.......2003-06-24

                This collection offers 4 songs unavailable on other collections, but that is the only thing refreshing about this collection. This collection covers much of her older recordings for RCA but for some reason, COAT OF MANY COLORS,one of her biggest hits, and her signature tune, the one tune that everyone thinks of when they think of Dolly has been left off, A OVERSIGHT, no way. Dolly early on wrote songs about her childhood, and along with TENNESSEE MOUNTAIN HOME, COAT OF MANY COLORS display this quite well, but neither song appears on this collection. RCA has made a history of putting out useless, thoughless collections of their greatest singers. RCA used to re-release greatest hits packages with 3 songs cut off. Dolly's career, the RCA years, needs separated into 2 parts, Pre-1977 Dolly and then 1977 to the mid 80's. RCA takes a handful of early 70's tunes then throws on 9-5 with Tennessee Homesick Blues. Coat of Many Colors needs to be on every collection, this is her most remembered tune, along with, "I will Always Love you", the orginal version, forget about the re-made 80's version. Dolly's best work appears on Essential Vol. 2 which should be Volume 1, because it contains most of her greatest early work, but RCA released the 80's works on a CD first before the quality 70's material and called it Essential Volume 1. RCA has always seem to ignore Dolly's early work because most of her early albums remain out of print. The 1975 Best of CD still remains the CD to get introducted to Dolly but now it is getting scare, why who knows. If the 1975 Best of is unavailable, check out the Essential Volume 2 if this CD is hard to find, the 2 CD box set "RCA Years" is the way to go. If the 3 collections mention above are unavailable, buy this "RCA Country Legends" CD and then be prepared to buy 3 or 4 other CD's to go with it, to get all of Dolly's quality material or keep waiting for RCA to release Dolly's old albums on cd.

                4 out of 5 stars One of the Best Intro's to a Country Lady.......2002-10-07

                I've always liked Dolly's voice, and a lot of her older stuff is unavailable on CD, so collections like this one are the only hope of getting an overview of her career. Besides such familiar standards as the lively "Mule Skinner Blues," "Tennessee Homesick Blues," and "Joshua," edgy-sad "Jolene," sardonic "9 to 5," and eminently sing-alongable "Here You Come Again," there are a couple of darker, less familiar ballads ("Evening Shade," "Daddy's Moonshine Still") and a sweet love song ("Love is Like a Butterfly") that I'd never heard before. Sound quality is crisp and clean. This is one I'm really enjoying.

                5 out of 5 stars A good collection.......2002-07-27

                Yes this collection may include the same old songs that many other collections have included but it does have some rare gems that makes this album worth purchasing. Songs like False Eyelashes and Shattered Image, songs that are not available on any other collection and give us some sight into the overall picture of Dolly's talents. Listen to this version of Shattered Image than listen to the newest version in her album Halo and Horns. Dolly's talent certainly does stand up to the test of time!

                2 out of 5 stars Same Old, Same Old.......2002-03-07

                I'm afraid I have to agree with the two star review below. The problem with this collection is that it is just more of the same old same old that RCA has been releasing for years. Of the 16 tracks here, all but 3 or 4 are already available on many, many, MANY other collections and so we are left being asked to pay some 12 bucks for a handful of songs. Why won't RCA either release all of Dolly's older albums or at least give us a comprehensive compilation of that period instead of repackaging the same songs over and over and over and over and over.........
