5 out of 5 stars Confused until recently.......2007-06-20

I had always thought he was saying "my girl Bill" like "my dog Spot" or "my brother John;" confusing despite the fact that "Bill" is a highly unlikely feminine name.

I get it now. He's not saying "My girl's name is Bill" but "Bill, that girl is mine." Glad to have cleared that up.

I am enjoying this cd. I liked Jim Stafford in the past. His music never gets old!!

4 out of 5 stars Jim Stafford.......2006-11-22

The CD was a good collection. The only song that I would have liked on there was the song "None of us are here", which was not.

Love this cd! If you love Roger Miller you will love Jim!

1 out of 5 stars Jim Stafford Karaoke.......2004-12-25

This CD says Original Recordings on the front but, while they may be original recordings based on whatever that means from a legal standpoint, these are not the original hits! I guess that by Original Recordings, they mean that he went back into the studio and recorded them new for this CD, rather than them re-releasing the original hits. A play on words designed to suck you in...And suck me in, it did.

His voice has lost all its range; the songs are slower and lack the character of the original hits. When I listened to My Girl Bill, instead of smiling or laughing as I did years ago listening to it, I couldn't wait for it to be over! Cow Patti was almost as bad, and I Don't Like Spiders and Snakes was so dry and boring to listen to that I skipped past it before the song ended.

It is a shame that his producers, or whomever it is that owns the original rights, chose to remake the songs rather than release the original hits. Perhaps the real originals just don't exist anymore. Too bad.

The bottom line is, if you want to listen to the Jim Stafford you enjoyed in the 70's, don't buy this CD. You'll be disappointed.

5 out of 5 stars Better the 2nd time around.......2007-05-07

Jim Stafford improves with time. I heard all of these songs when they first came out and enjoyed them every one. This time I appreciate them like a fine wine. The more subtle nuances in the music are discernable since I already know the words. J.S. has written some great tunes.

4 out of 5 stars something changed since 25 years ago.......2007-01-15

Back in the 70's, I bought this album and loved it. Still love all the songs. There is one missing, a song that went like this...."LA MAMA GET IN MY PAJAMA AND CHASE MY BLUES AWAY" ..Although it was a Jim Stafford funny tune, this song jammed hard with a big electric guitar solo. Sounded kind of like Dickie Betts. Anyway, I'm back to buying music, 5 kids later, guess I'm gonna by this CD/record again, but sure would like that one jammin hit. Anyone with a clue??? Thanks gjh Landenberg PA Still think Jim Stafford is great...gjh

Hey guys great Best Of.... well almost the best! I hate to be a big ole whiner so you'd better get some cheese and crackers to go with this whine. So here goes! Even though you covered some good sounds of Jim Stafford. Where's Cow Patti, Wildwood Weed and I Got Stoned And I Missed It? I mean come on, The Last Chant was on the flip side (45 Version) of Wildwood Weed. And it made the cut. The notations on the back of this CD "Bonus CD tracks" should have included these hits. So Polygram Records how about a CD set with everything Jim recorded. And maybe a DVD of his TV appearances including his show. I'd definately buy a copy.

5 out of 5 stars GREAT SINGER AND SONG WRITER.......2003-03-27

This kind of music brings back the good days when I was alot younger and life was a whole lot more fun. I recommend everyone should hear his music and enjoy the good clean music we use to have that still made you laugh and have fun.

    5 out of 5 stars What Can I Say "GREAT".......2005-12-08

    Great musician and a knack for humour that's just not seen today. When I went to CD's this was high on my list of must have's.

    5 out of 5 stars First Album I ever bought..............2005-05-10

    I get sort of weepy when I see this album. It truly was the first album I ever bought with my own money. I think "Swamp Witch" is a classic song in any genre. I am still able to recite the lyrics from start to finish. It puts you in a place and a time that seems real, yet seems ethereal. "Last Chant" is just flat out funny in a socially conscious manner. "My Girl Bill" is twisted and funny. I remeber my Mom turning to my Dad as we listened to it on the car radio and saying, "They can't say that on the radio !" When the punch line hit she just slowly shook her head and feigned digust. That's a wonderful reaction for a twelve year old boy to see. "Spiders and Snakes " is one of those goofy songs you like when you're twleve because it makes you feel older, wiser, and confused all at the same time. Heck, I'm 42 now and I STILL love the guitar riff in that song and I still laugh at his predicament. "Wildwood Weed" takes the cake though. Funniest pot song ever...(Well, maybe "Devil Went to Jamaica" by David Allen Coe has edged it out) Even Mom and Dad laughed when it was played on the radio. Old Country Classic indeed! Great funny album. 5 stars just for all the laughter it brought me during a strange and unsettled summer of my youth.
