5 out of 5 stars EL PASO.......2006-11-10

This has to one of his best songs ever. The whole cd is excellant..takes me back to being a kid again...when things were more peaceful. Lot of memories with this cd.....it is GREAT!

5 out of 5 stars Best Marty Robbins Tape.......2006-08-28

THis is truly the best Marty Robbins tape. 15 of the songs were number 1 hits.If someone is not a Marty Robbins fan he will be after he hears this CD. I first purchased the tape a few years ago, and recently took it on a road trip with a friend.He liked it so much he asked to borrow it and will not return it. He is now a real Marty Robbins fan. So I bought the CD and play it all the time. It is an album that makes me feel good.It is my favorite album right now. There really are no albums made today that can copare with the greatness of Marty and his songs.

4 out of 5 stars "Greatest" is ONLY an Opinion.......2004-11-30

There is nothing here to disappoint(unless as one reviewer claims, the sound is flawed in part). Know this, "I'll Go On Alone" from early in his career when Marty did not have the support of his wife in his music career (she changed her mind though) and "Among My Souvenirs" (done to death by other singers) were NOT two of his greatest hits as to sales, radio play,etc. The definitive collection is STILL "The Essential Marty Robbins". You should enjoy those two songs mentioned above and all of the rest on this, but don't be fooled by "greatest" claims.

5 out of 5 stars A PINK CARNATION.......2003-09-10

A white Sport coat and A pink Carnation is probably one of my favourite songs of all time!
And there are plenty of otehr good songs on here.
I love the electric guitar, the rnr backing singers and marty's signiture voice! And it's a great tuen written by the man himself!

3 out of 5 stars Sony Botches Marty again!.......2001-08-01

I now have two Marty Robbins Greatest hits compilations. Both "Lifetime of Song" from '82, and 16 Greatest Hits from '98, fail to include the stereo recordings of five of perhaps his greatest hits on the country charts. They are, El Paso, Devil Woman, Don't Worry, Ruby Ann, and Ribbon of Darkness. On 16 Greatest Hits, I find it funny that the producers tag the back of the cd with notes on how the latest technology was used to create the ultimate sound on this CD, and yet they still choose the mono masters, used by Columbia,to stamp 45's back in the early '60's. Someone's either not doing their homework on Marty's work, or Sony's just trying to hastilly turn a buck on the Columbia back catalog. I suspect the latter! Anyway, I'm not sure which collection contains the original stereo recordings of these hits, but trust me, I've heard them on other country compilation albums, and there's no comparison. Other than that, there are some salvagable tracks on here, Tonight Carmen, from '67, and Just Married from '58 are exceptional, (and in stereo i might add)! Overall a good compilation, but the stereo flaw costs this one two stars. C'mon producers, you can do better, especially 40 years after the fact!

4 out of 5 stars lovely mellow tunes.......2004-09-03

This album is pretty good if you're looking for that really obvious Hawaian music. It's the type of music you'd expect to hear at a luau in the suburbs. It's pretty hoaky, but it's the perfect backround music to add a "tropical" feel to your everyday activites.
