Free Music Review: Solid (but small) slice of Jackson's huge catalog of hits
Hit: 4 Stars
As one of the most consistent hit-makers in country music since the early '90s, it's impossible to represent Jackson's career, even his hits, in only 16 tracks. With 31 #1 hits, dozens more top-10s and top-40s, and over a dozen albums full of songs that weren't issued to radio, a paltry sixteen tracks can, at best, offer up a handful of fan favorites. And that's exactly what this latest volume does, combining five chart toppers with eleven top-10s to serve up a superb hour of heartfelt and fun country music.
Jackson's fans will find plenty missing here, but they're not the audience for this release. It's aimed at those just discovering Jackson, perhaps from his 2006 release "Like Red on a Rose." For new fans, this is a quick fix of many of Jackson's hit sides. It includes the fun-time stompers "Chattahoochee" and "Summertime Blues," the honky-tonk declaration "Don't Rock the Jukebox," covers of "Mercury Blues" and "Pop A Top," the country ballads "Here in the Real World" and "Gone Crazy," and even a bit of zydeco in "That'd Be Alright." Jackson proves himself to be a talented, moving and above all else, likable vocalist with a pen that writes hits and ears that select great material from other writers.
Drawn from eight of Jackson's albums, these tracks represent hits from 1990's "Here in the Real World" and "Chasin' That Neon Rainbow" through 2002's "That'd Be Alright." Missing are hits minted over the past five years, as well as numerous chart-toppers and other favorites. Those who know Jackson from his many televised performances in the wake of 9/11 will especially miss "Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning)." A deeper helping of his earlier hits can be found on 1995's "Greatest Hits Collection," and a deeper helping of his hits from 1995 through 2003 can be found on "Greatest Hits, Vol. 2." Together they offer up a richer experience than this single disc, but at a higher price. For those wanting a (very) quick overview on one disc, this is a great place to start.
