Quantity Over Quality.......2007-01-15

As a musician myself, I know too well that one of the most important ingredients in ANY performance (live or recorded) is passion. The recordings here generally lack the same passion and sheer drama of the originals. Much of the instrumentation has been reduced to a cheezy, thin, plastic synthesized replica. The performances are simply a watered-down lackluster version of the classic originals. If it were not for the sheer volume of tracks compiled here, I would have rated the comp only "one star".

Mediocre.......2006-05-17

The sound quality for this collection isn't much better than the samples offered by Amazon.

One Hundred Greatest TV Themes.......2005-08-06

I have watched almost all the shows that are on these 4 cd's. Many were made before I started watching TV. Most I've seen once or twice before.

Pretty close to original recordings.......2005-07-24

Definitely not as good as the originals. You'll probably notice the slight differences since it's stuff you saw and listened to every week or everyday in reruns growing up, but it's still an amazing collection.

Really Good Collection.......2004-07-11

I bought this in part because it had soundtracks to tv shows that are unavailable. My husband and I watch aome British programming. Many of the theme songs are for what seems like obscure British shows. That said; it has been enjoyable to hear music that I would normally never hear. Some music does sound tinny; some are very very rich, and some music is derived from actual preformances from the original artists. I think this is worth buying because is has a wonderful blend of music. The pieces are full soundtracks so they includes the parts of the theme song which are often edited out. I think the orchestra's who preformed the music did a great job. I have MonsterMania which redoes the soundtracks to the Godzilla movies. The interpretation is less heavy and stark than the preformance we associate with the original soundtrack; but I regard it as a new way to appreciate the music and all the componets which make the song unique.

Nasty, honest "Outlaw" music.......2005-09-12

Billie Don's TCL is a fine example of honest, authentic bad-ass songwriting from one of the most respected guys in the business. The reason he was never as popular as his peers (Cash, Jones, Hag, Kristofferson, etc) is because he's so damn blunt. Nothing hidden with political correctedness here folks, but what a joy to listen to. Man, their's just not enough artists like this these days.

A True Inspiration.......2002-07-09

Billy Don Burns is truly an inspiration to me. It takes talent to write a beautiful song but it takes courage to write the truth, good or bad for all the world to see. I'm glad I've had the chance to be introduced to the music and the man.

Great traditional country music.......2002-03-24

Great album, every song is catchy and captures the essence of traditional country music. Good for car listening, at home, or anywhere else.

CLEAR AS AN OZARK MOUNTAIN MORNING.......2002-02-19

IF YOU LISTEN CLOSELY YOU CAN FEEL THE HEART
AND SOUL OF BILLY DON BURN'S IN THESE TRACKS
and that is what true country music is.
It is as clear as the Ozark Mountain morning
where this music was born, raised and lives-
I LOVE THIS "LONESOME TRAIN"
THANK YOU BD-
DIAMOND

COUNTRY'S BACK.......2002-02-13

It's proof the "real deals" survive! Billy Don puts "COUNTRY" back on the charts. The likes of Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson, Willie and Waylon,Tanya Tucker, Hoyt Axton, Webb Pierce , Johnny Horton, Patsy Cline, Johnny Paycheck,and those of their "grit" will be proud to add him to their peer group.

Billy Don Burns has the courage to be honest and the compassion to be sincere....and that's country in my book.
