GET THIS CD .......2006-11-06

LOVED this cd. If you love Tanya, or just want an introduction to her music, this is it!

Excellent CD.......2006-02-17

I heard a Tanya Tucker song on the radio and immediately went to Amazon to see if I could get a CD I liked. Well I found one. This is a great CD that highlights the talent of Tanya. I highly recommend this CD.

Wow!.......2002-08-24

I bought this CD because of "Its a Little too Late". Tanya's distinct voice and awesome lyrics drew me to the song. Even though I bought this CD for one song in the beginning, I have to say that this CD is a big suprise because I love every song. Usually you get those albums that you skip over songs but not this one! I own 60+ country albums and this one is one of the top 5 that I am always playing. Tanya has the old country sound... none of the pop stuff played today. Some songs are up-beat, but all have great lyrics. Tanya will get your dancing and singing along. A few of my favorites are: "Walking Shoes", Down to my Last Teardrop", "Tell me about it", "Two Sparrows in a Hurricane", Hangin' In," It's a Little too late", "If your heart Ain't busy tonight", & "Delta Dawn". I'd recomend this CD to anyone who loves the REAL country sound!

Tanya's best of the nineties.......2002-07-28

Although Tanya signed for Capitol in 1986 and had many classic hits, this particular compilation focuses almost entirely on her nineties music. Tanya's first Greatest Hits for Capitol appeared in 1989 and the only track from that which is included here is My arms stay open all night. The next compilation was Greatest Hits 1990-1992. All ten tracks from that set are included here.

So, if you want Daddy and home, Strong enough to bend, Love me like you used to, Just another love, I'll come back as another woman, If it don't come easy, I won't take less than your love, One love at a time and It's only over for you, buy that first Capitol Greatest Hits.

One real oldie included here is Delta Dawn, a re-recording from 1991's Greatest Hits Encore, an album which contained re-recordings of ten of Tanya's seventies hits for Columbia and MCA.

There is one previously unissued track for Tanya's long-standing fans (like me), the opening Black water bayou. To me, that alone is worth the price.

The other tracks are all from the nineties, mostly after 1992. You can't fit all Tanya's Capitol hits on a single CD, but if you buy this and that first Greatest hits, you'll have all the essentials.

good overview of one of country's all-time greats.......2002-01-05

Tanya Tucker marrived at Capitol Records in 1986. By then, it had been five years since her last big hit at MCA and her peak recording years appeared to be long behind her. Yet hooked up with Jerry Crutchfield (one of her many producers at MCA),

Tucker immediately hit the top of the charts with a pair of Paul Davis-written tunes dealing with rocky relationships: "One Love At A Time" and "Just Another Love." Her voice was now stronger than ever, and the consistently first-rate material Crutchfield assembled over the past decade allowed Tucker to demonstrate her full versatility, be it rowdy toetappers ("If It Don't Come Easy," "Down To My Last Teardrop"), moving ballads ("Two Sparrows In A Hurricane," "Soon"), bluesy scorchers ("You Just Watch Me ," "Some Kind Of Trouble,") or defiant rockabilly ("Walking Shoes," "It's A Little Too Late").

After one more top ten hit "Little Things" in 1997, Tucker left Capitol, feeling she wasn't getting adequate promotion at the Garth-obsessed label (she was right). Unfortunately, Tucker has not been signed to a label since then. If you don't own any other Tucker retrospectives, this is the place to start with 20 tracks far surpassing other Tucker best-ofs.

Upper 48 hits 72-97.......2006-11-04

Super...but I am a Tanya Tucker fan ...She can do no wrong Top Country Artist

Whatever happened to "Spring"?.......2006-09-22

I have a handful of Tanya "Hits" collections, the best one issued a few years ago with 20 songs on it. Now we get this fantastic collection with 48 songs and my favorite Tanya song, "Spring" is still missing! I can't possibly be the only one who loved this song. Why has it been forgotten? I only have it on an old "budget" cassette that came out years ago. Still, this is the most exciting collection that I've come across.

Tanya Tucker; The Upper 48 Hits 1972-1997........2005-09-17

I purchased this CD for one song and was pleasantly surprised at the number of past hits that ere included on the CD.
Raven Records in Australia put this collection together and along with the biography of Tanya Tucker's ups and downs it is truly the Upper 48 hits CD to buy.
The one song I purchased this for is called, "If It Don't Come Easy", but it also includes "Highway Robbery" which was another traveling song for the open road. "Strong Enough to Bend" is/was another favorite. Disc Two in this album is full of great sentimental hits to beat the break up blues for all.

Tanya's hits from the 70s!.......2006-04-22

The title is misleading as these are not her 16 BIGGEST hits, but in fact her EARLIEST hits (1973-1983; some very hard to find). It has been remastered, but it's not re-recorded thankfully; as it is a delight to hear Tanya's young voice - already then amazing.
I have to give this 5 stars as Tanya is an amazing artist who was way beyond her time with her songs. I do believe that if she was to release her old songs today they would all be a hit.

My favourites on this album: Love's The Answer, No Man's Land, The Man That Turned My Mama On, Would You Lay With Me, Spring and Feel Right!

Exactly What I Was Looking For.......2006-04-09

I like Tanya Tucker, but I'm not interested in owning every one of her hit songs. I had been lookng for a CD that consists mostly of her early hits from the 1970's and I was thrilled to find this one at Wal-Mart. It contains 16 songs (this is a plus because the songs tend to be short), it is remastered, and, best of all, it contains my favorite Tanya Tucker song "Would You Lay With Me (In A Field Of Stone). I have found that this song is often left off of her more contemporary greatest hits compilations. There is a maturity and a toughness to Tanya Tucker's early songs that makes this CD a particularly rewarding listen. From the opening line "She's 41 and her daddy still calls her 'baby'", we know that we are listening to a singer wise beyond her years. It is as though Tucker had already seen and done everything when she recorded these songs. I recently saw a documentary on television about women in country music. In it, Brenda Lee comments that "Tanya just matured faster than the rest of us." Listening to this CD, you'll hear what she means.

Good single disc collection of early years.......2006-03-12

I am usually tired of the endless reissues that the label cranks out but I find this to have some value. First it is a great sampling of her Columbia years. But even better is this has three of her Arista recordings that are rare. For this reason alone I find this collection worth getting. Two of these songs are on the very complete collection called "the upper 48 hits", but that is a bit expensive. This is a lower priced alternative.

A Great rock record from a country star.......2007-07-11

This is a great rock record that was overlooked by rock critics and fans because she was country and dissed by country fans offended at her attempt to cross over - ironic since most current country sounds more like 70's pop/rock than this does. Her voice is suited to bar room bluesy rock and the covers here hold up against anyone's. I love Bonnie's "Angel" but this one's still solid.

I have to agree with the reviewer that stated that they need to re-release the follow-up "Tear Me Apart" which is much the same, with a couple of my favorite songs on it. It's one of the few recordings from that era that I have left to replace on disc. C'mon Rhino.

PROOF OF PAVING THE PATH.......2006-03-28

This Tanya Tucker album is proof that if it wasn't for her, you probably would not know Shania Twain, Faith Hill or Gretchen Wilson or many other female artists of today. Two classics on this collection of music are worth it all: "Angel from Montgomery", and "Texas When I Die".

A must-have from Tanya!.......2005-10-19

I have all of Tanya's albums and her songs are surely tunes you put on repeat. This album is not a favourite, but definitely one you need to own.

1. This song has a rock edge, but it's not quite there. There's too much happening at the same time. 3/5
2. Beautiful ballad in Tanya style. Not so rock'n'roll at all. 4/5
3. Very rockish edge and lyrics with attitude. The chorus is a bit annoying, though. 5/5
4. Ballad. You'll either love this or hate this. I hate it. 1/5
5. Tanya makes Elvis proud. It's loud and it's great. 5/5
6. My favourite! It's rock, country, pop and it's such a happy song! 5/5
7. Another ballad with not that much meaning. 2/5
8. My favourite! Up-beat, raunchy and happy. 5/5
9. Ballad. Not much happening here. The title kinda gave that away. 2/5
10. This is a classic. Mid-tempo tune with great highlights. 5/5

Tanya's bid for rock stardom.......2004-03-14

With her hugely successful pop crossover album, Here you come again, Dolly Parton had shown that it was possible for a country singer to appeal to a different set of fans. So it should not have surprised anybody when Tanya also tried changing styles, though in her case it was for more of a rock sound. The LP cover was intended to emphasize the new style but I wonder if it was a mistake. Some of those who enjoyed the cover didn't take the music seriously because of it while others decided that if Tanya needed to pose this way, the music couldn't possibly be any good. In fact, judged purely on its own merit, this is a brilliant rock album that has nothing to do with country music except for the closing track, Texas when I die.

The album contains several interesting covers, including Not fade away (originally a Buddy Holly song but later covered by the Rolling Stones), Angel from Montgomery (the John Prine classic generally associated with Bonnie Raitt), Heartbreak hotel (the Elvis Presley classic) and Brown eyed handsome man (a Chuck Berry song that was also successful for Buddy Holly). I've heard the famous versions of all these songs as well as some other songs and Tanya's versions stand comparison with the best of them. On their own, they prove that Tanya could rock with the best.

The other songs are also excellent. Lover goodbye was co-written by Phil Everly so this is also likely to be a cover. I'm the singer you're the song is definitely an original, being co-written by Tanya (a rarity for her). The river and the wind, If you feel it and It's nice to be with you are all brilliant rock songs that may well be originals though I can't be sure. So those nine songs show you a different side of Tanya - the rock singer.

But the old saying goes - you can take the singer out of the country but you can't take the country out of the singer. To prove it, the final track, written by Ed Bruce, is one of the most traditional country songs that Tanya has ever recorded - the anthemic Texas when I die. On this original version of the song, Merle Haggard gets mentioned (notwithstanding that he is a Californian). When Tanya re-recorded the song, Merle was replaced in the lyrics by Willie Nelson (definitely a Texan). Die-hard country fans with no interest in rock music can find both versions of this song on other compilations so do not need to buy this just for Texas when I die.

This album will not appeal to all country fans - maybe even some Tanya fans won't like it - but I love it. On the other hand, it will appeal to some rock fans who don't like country music.

Almost Famous.......2003-08-10

THe best version of this is the LP. With it's large gatefold cover, Tanya Tucker's sexy curves looked hot in black leather. And then there was the inside... Tanya in a tight red leotard. HOT STUFF -- even by rock and punk standards, back in 1978.

The CD is just the music. It's good, but lacks the impact of the original package. Unfortunately, the sexy cover art did not break Tanya Tucker into rock radio, and did not win her a big new audience. Deborah Harry and others had taken Rock fans by storm and TNT was seen as just another cute girl who did Country & Western.

I think this is Tanya Tucker's best CD. Countty and western fans might disagree -- if they never like 'rock music'. But without the LP cover art, it's just "the one you play in the car", not the version you pull out at parties.

Tanya's early classics.......2002-07-05

With two important bonus tracks (Delta Dawn and Love's the Answer, both from Tanya's debut album) added to Tanya's second and third Columbia albums, this is a far stronger collection than any Greatest hits album from Sony/Columbia. The only significant omission is Jamestown Ferry.

Against that, there are many excellent album tracks, including Tanya's covers of Teddy Bear song, Pass me by, Let me be there, Bed of roses and Why me lord - but this collection is particularly interesting for all the original songs included, many of them thought-provoking, none more so than the opening What's your mama's name?, which asks a child about an unknown father.

Although it's many years since I heard the original albums (I used to have all her Columbia vinyl LP's), Collectables chose wisely in compiling this CD. Tanya's debut was wonderful, but the two LP's that followed it were even better.

This is classic traditional country music. Tanya's voice (a sort of country Tina Turner, if you see what I mean) may not appeal to everybody, but if you like the voice and you like traditional country, this will you suit you ideally.

Early Tanya At Her Best.......2000-07-08

A prior review states all these songs were on earlier albums. This is incorrect. These are two original albums..the second and third of her career. Both contain some of the earliest hits that established her as a force in Country Music. What's Your Mama's Name became her first #1 single. Blood Red and Goin' Down is a classic, Would You Lay With Me also a classic. These were recorded at ages 14 and 15 and both CD's showcase the voice that was once called "An American Dream." For me, the real reason to buy this double cd is that between the two there are nine songs that do NOT appear on any other Tanya CD. They, until now, could only be heard if you had the original vinyl albums. Four of the songs alone are worth the price. Those being.. California Cotton Fields, Old Dan Tucker's Daughter, What If We Were Running Out Of Love and my personal favorite.. The Baptism Of Jesse Taylor. This is early seventies country at its best.

Tanya Tucker:What's Your Mama's Name/Would You Lay With Me.........2000-06-18

I think this is a great album for anyone who likes TANYA TUCKER. It has songs from her early years that you wouldn't have heard on the radio. All the songs were on eariler albums. They are great songs that shows the range she has in her voice....This is a must for the Tanya fan. ENJOY.

Great Songs from the Greatest Female Country Singer Ever.......2000-08-30

I have always been puzzled as to why of the five official Tanya Tucker Greatest Hits Albums, this one appears to lag behind the others in sales figures. These are all HUGE hits from her MCA days after leaving Columbia. The albums on which they are found were all big sellers for country music at the time. There are some really great songs on here everyone. Here's Some Love opens the set. It was a the title track from her very first #1 Country Album. There is a pop influence to several of the songs here but with Tanya it is always country. One of my favorite Tucker songs is the second cut, Ridin' Rainbows. Who could forget San Antonio Stroll, Don't Believe My Heart Can Stand Another You and the wonderful Dave Loggins penned You've Got Me To Hold Onto. The CD also includes the biggest pop crossover single of her career the PHENOMENAL Lizzie And The Rainman.. one of the greatest country songs ever laid down. Short Cut is wonderful, and one of the many hidden jewels on Tanya's 30 albums. It was actually released as a single in Japan at the time. In closing this is a HOT collection and well worth the price.

TANYA TUCKER.......2001-08-02

I LOVE HER SINGING & I ALSO LOVE TANYA TUCKER TOO?

A Must Buy For Serious and Casual Tanya Tucker Fans.......2000-08-24

This is one of my favorite cds. With her sultry and soulful voice, Tanya Tucker is at her very best with songs like the popular Two Sparrows in a Hurricane and Hangin In. Other good songs on this album include Love Me Like You Used To and I'll Take Today. This is a must have for the serious Tanya Tucker fans, and for casual fans like myself, her performance of the song Hangin In alone justifies the purchase. In that song, she is the epitome of the sexy and feisty girl that we all grow up dreaming of.

Product Description

We all have our youthful indiscretions, so lets get that out of the way first: Stephen Bishop will forever be immortalized as the guy whose guitar gets smashed to flinders by John Belushi in Animal House. A minor character in the film, he was officially known as Charming Guy With Guitar in the credits. He also wrote the movies theme, setting the stage for one of the all-time comedy classics. Bishops brief time in the spotlight tends to obscure his many talents as a songwriter. After all, not many writers have their tunes covered by a range of artists that stretches from Eric Clapton to Pavarotti, with stops at Barbara Streisand and the Four Tops in between. Bish opens with a nod to a pair of songwriters from the past: Harold Arlen and E.Y. Yip Harburg, whose If I Only Had A Brain came from The Wizard Of Oz. Bishop dedicates What Love Can Do, which originally concluded the first side of the album, to Harburg. But the emotional core of the disc is Only The Heart Within You, which features background vocals from Art Garfunkel, who has frequently covered Bishop tunes throughout his career. Bish is a sweet record, suited to Bishops tenor (in both senses of the word), caught at the apex of his commercial success. To give you some idea of just how A-list he was at the time, check out the photo of the Whistling Bishettes in the gatefold; among them were such celebs as Carrie Fisher, Tanya Tucker, Cameron Crowe and John Landis, among others.

solid, intriguing sophomore album from Stephen Bishop.......2005-10-15

Stephen Bishop's 1978 second album, "Bish" (titled after his nickname, of course), is an ambitious effort with very much of a cinematic feel to it--it figures that this guy has done lots of soundtrack work over the years. It's telling that Bish starts the album off with an instrumental cover version of "The Wizard Of Oz" tune "If I Only Had A Brain". There's also the brief "Recognized" which seems like something that was written for a 1920s musical, and the same thing pretty much goes for "What Love Can Do", the latter of which adds caveman-style background vocals to the mix. Admittedly, these 3 aforementioned tracks are ultimately all minor works. However, there are a bunch of gems here showcasing Bishop's classy songwriting, as well as his highly expressive and smooth vocals. The piano lead orchestrated ballad "Looking For The Right One" is tender and affecting. "Everybody Needs Love" is an incredibly catchy uptempo song with an infectious extended high note from Bishop that arrives toward the end. The dramatic, epic ballad "A Fool At Heart" is sumptuous. The brilliant "Vagabond From Heaven" is an exciting uptempo song with witty lyrics seemingly about his troubles with his stepfather as a kid. The fittingly tropical-flavored "Bish's Hideaway" is a soothing, sighing ballad with defeatist lyrics and excellent melodicism. "I've Never Known A Nite Like This" is an evocative song with a 'rainy day' feel on the verses and a great catchy chorus. Also very pleasant is the mid-tempo pop-rocker "Losing Myself In You" which has Michael McDonald on background vocals. "Only The Heart Within You" is a quality piece of songwriting, but unfortunately it's very much marred by the overproduction/ excessive synthesizer layers. The album closer "When I Was In Love" is okay, but weepy. So, "Bish" is certainly a flawed album, but the great stuff makes it a mighty fine album anyway. If all you have from Bish is the "On And On--The Hits Of Stephen Bishop" and/ or his "20th Century Masters" disc, and you want to dig deeper, you won't regret getting a copy of "Bish".

"Bish" was lovingly reissued on CD in 2005 by Hip-O-Select Records, with excellent remastering, as well as a recreation of the layout of the original gatefold vinyl LP--if you're looking to get the album, this is the version I recommend you go for.

Texas Tornado Returns.......2007-04-11

I love me my Miss TT - The Texas Tornado if you will (and I know you will). This was her first album in 5 years and actually her last album of new material since, but it's worth the listen for sure. After a huge, huge comeback in 1986, Tanya spent almost 8 years charting hit and after hit then as the OTHERS moved in (i.e. Faith, Shania etc.) Tanya seemed to once again fall out of favor, her record company changed hands, forced her to hire a new producer and made her release an album that just wasn't very good, she sued for lack of promotion and they gave her her very own subsidary label and executive producer control hence bringing about this album of 12 perfectly suited country numbres for her. Though she doesn't write much (about 2 songs her entire career) Tanya has the ability to hire really, really good songwriters; plus the beeatch could sing the phone book and chew it up without any problem; but this album has some of her best - the bitchy "Shoulda Thought About That" (she co-wrote), the sad and touching "We Had It All" (back when we had nothing at all), and the lead off single "A Memory Like I'm Gonna Be" (that dream you're chasing is only a high heeled illusion/ but you'll never get over a memory like i'm gonna be), Tanya has always impressed me with her voice, and I love everything she has ever done, but this is as a whole album probably one of her best. Incidentally, while watching all 26 episodes of Tuckerville this past year, Tanya was in the studio in a few episodes and it was really amazing to watch - she'd walk in completely unprepared (she runs on what is called 'tuckertime' which is essentially 2 hours behind real time), will rehearse a lyric and leave you wondering, "oh my gawd, she's lost it, she can't sing" and then in two minutes, she will return to the mike and rip the stuff up... now that's talent.

my goodness.......2006-09-04

came home from a run to find "TANYA" and a check I didn't expect in my mailbox...."waitin' for the sun" ..indeed...T.Y.T.N.T....BANG!

Among her finest work; has two of the best songs I've heard.......2004-04-24

Of course Tanya fans know that she never records a bad song. What she tends to do is to record some killer cuts along with others ranging from good to average (her average songs are still better than most mainstream hits). This album follows that formula, though is much stronger than most of her post-70s work. (I would give it 4.5 stars if possible, but I decided to round up instead of down.) The absolute killer cuts are the opening fiery rocker "Old Weakness (Coming On Strong)" and, on the other side of the spectrum, the gorgeous and tender ballad "I Can Do That" (probably the most heartfelt of all ballads she has recorded, with some beautiful steel guitar hooks). Those are seriously two of the best songs that I have ever heard. They will certainly go down in my book of favorites (whether I ever write one or not!). The weakest track is surprisingly "A Memory Like I'm Gonna Be" (it's suprising because I think that was supposed to be the big single). Tanya really sounds fantastic here, better than she did on 1997's "Complicated". And she boasts a teriffic band, with top-notch production. Hopefully they will stick together, because they have something truly special here.

Definitely a must for those of us that get goosebumps by the mere thought of Tanya. As always, she convinces you of every word she says. And as the years pass, you can hear a deeper love in that voice that has haunted some of us for over 30 years now. And she still has that irresistable little catch in her voice, just like when she was 14 years old. I always think of Tanya as a combination of Connie Smith (because of that catch in her voice), Brenda Lee (because she can rock in a down-home kind of way), and Tammy Wynette (because she has that "teardrop" in her voice). And like all of those singers, she never lost her magic touch.

One of Tanya's best albums ever.......2003-02-11

After the release of Tanya Tucker's underperforming album Complicated in 1988, she left Capitol Records, slapping them with a lawsuit siting inadequate promotion of product. Recently, though, Tucker returned with the self-titled Tanya, on her own label Tuckertime (distributed by Capitol as part of her settlement agreement).

Tanya is the most delightful surprise of the past year and Tucker's second best album ever (after 1991's diverse What Do I Do With Me). It's all about fractured love. The footstomping "Old Weakness (Coming On Strong)" and "I Still Hear Your Voice" find Tucker raspily pining for a lost love (never, however, looking for pity). On the ballads, a wearier, wiser Tucker infuses each number with heightened emotion (led by the Vince Gill-backed ode of fading love, "Borrowed Wings").

Her own composition "Should'a Thought About That" reminds us that no one in country does haunting better than Tanya. Nobody sounds like her either, which makes this album's engaging hit single "A Memory Like I'm Gonna Be" all the more welcome at bland country radio. Hopefully, it won't be another five years until the next new Tanya Tucker album.

What is country radio's problem with Tanya Tucker music?.......2003-02-05

Tanya is now showing us why she is a living legend. Its a shame that the country music industry and country radio have overlooked her so many times over. This is one of the best, if not the best, albums of Tanya's career and radio is not doing its part to make the first single "A Memory Like I'm Gonna Be" a major hit. My only hope is that more songs from the album will be released as singles, especially the amazing "Borrowed Wings." It would be a great day in country radio to hear that song in heavy rotation and Tanya performing it on major award shows. Her voice is full of emotion and is always real and raw. Tanya, you are the best country-rocker around and it is time that you were given your due!
