Free Music Review: Finally A Greatest Hits Package Worth Its' Title
Hit: 5 Stars
How ironic that the most unexpected country star comes out with one of the best Greatest Hits Packages I've ever seen. On the heels of the dismal Hits package by Faith Hill (an abominable hits collection if there ever was one), this CD comes as a refreshing surprise to all of us who have followed Urban's career.
Whats evident through this album is how much his voice has changed over the last ten years. This is a good thing. Some of the earlier tracks lack a country edge to them, and its evident that Keith worked on his southern twang on his later recordings (gotta admit, he DOES sound more country later on in his career).
So, the best amongst the 18 tracks? I'm going to go with "Better Life" and "Days go By", which for many reasons to me, remain the two best songs Urban ever released. The list here is not chronological, which is fine. Keith also does something differently on most of his songs - instead of a typical country male star who would usually weave a story/narrative into his songs' lyrics, Keith is more inclined toward the Bon Jovi school of thought - free flow lyrics with a repetitive chorus. This may or may not work for some listeners. In this case, its evident that Urban is very much part of the country-rock genre, but he is definitely not a master story-teller.
Past that, however, its great to see that Keith waited a few years before releasing this album. His last official CD "Love, Pain, and the Whole Crazy Thing" is a country-rock masterpiece - possibly the greatest country CD of last year (yes, even better than Reba's "Duets" or the two Carrie Underwood records). Critics might tend to disagree, but chances are that if you've read this far in the review, you do have some love for Urban. I would say, pick up both this CD and his last album - both are stellar.
In an age where the term "Greatest Hits" has been used and abused by various artists and record labels, its wonderful to see that this country boy from Australia gets it right the first time out. You won't regret a minute of this purchase.
PS - I recommend getting the deluxe edition of this, for all the videos.
Five Stars.
