2 out of 5 stars Doesn't Best Represent His Talents.......2005-06-17

I picked up this CD a few years ago, namely for the track "Bring it on Home." Because this was the only Charlie Rich music I was familiar with, it took me many years to discover that many of the tunes on the album, especially his earlier works like "Mohair Sam" and "Lonely Weekends", are not the original hit songs, but re-recordings done, apparently, years later by Rich. While still good, they're not the versions that brought him to fame, and all have this generic "countrypolitan" feel to them, short-changing the listener on how diverse his catalog actually is. While this isn't a bad album, it's not the one that best represents his talents. I suggest, instead, "Feel Like Going Home: The Essential Charlie Rich," a double CD that offers a glimpse of his rock'n'roll, jazz and country leanings, not to mention the excellent, informative liner notes. Get his "20 Greatest Hits" if you find it somewhere for less than $3 at a cut-out bin.

5 out of 5 stars The real "Best of" is here!.......2004-10-01

You really can't go wrong with any of the compiled works of Charlie Rich, but this one covers the real highpoints of a career that included blues, rock and roll, country and later on jazz. Some of the tunes were recorded for more than one record company when they did not score the first time around. (On My Knees and There Won't be Anymore are two of them). Life Has Its Little Ups and Downs (written by Charlie's wife) should have made him the country star he became several years later but the music industry just didn't know how to market this music man who could do it all. There are other tunes not on this album worth hearing but if you want just one, this is it.
