4 out of 5 stars Misleading packaging but good content.......2006-04-10

Whoever packaged this didn't know his onions. The "Boss Man" cover is from a different album than the one actually on the CD. The original "Boss Man" (the one on the CD) was never realesed on vynil in the UK but has been released as a separate CD by Koch. The only "Boss Man" released on vynil in the UK (and the one pictured) had in fact been issued in the US as "The Best of..." and was renamed for UK release. It included such tracks as "A Part of Your Life", "A Woman Left Lonely" and "Daddy Don't You Walk So Fast", as well as a few tracks from the original "Boss Man" album. (Indicentally, there was also another vynil compilation, on the Embassy label, called "I Do My Swingin' at Home", with a similar range of obscure an well-known tracks. Also, the cover-photo from the UK album "Boss Man" was also used on a Hallmark budget album "Midnight Blues".)

This gaffe apart, this pairing of two Charlie Rich albums - one from just before his "overnight success" and one from just after - is most welcome, particularly "Very Special Love Songs", on which he reprises some of his recordings from Sun and RCA. But I would be happier if someone issued a compilation of ALL his Epic singles and the recordings that didn't make his major albums or even appaear at all.
