Free Music Review: This Is The One
Hit: 5 Stars
The Mavericks were a mighty band expertly skirting the periphery of Country, Blues, Latin, Pop and Lounge. They weren't a big seller but did provide some exceptional music over their career mainly because of expert musicianship, superb songwriting, great taste in covers and the pure beauty of the voice of Raul Malo. Now to this album. Firstly, I don't have it, but do have all their albums-as-albums so I am familiar with just about all this material. As with all the "Gold" albums, it has been compiled with impeccable taste and gives the listener an excellent overview of this great band. There are quite a few other "best-of's" about but this one, at the current price, is the one to get. It covers their entire career and picks the eyes out of the best songs from each of their albums. The only drawback is that if this is the only Mavericks CD you get and want more (which I'm sure you will), you'll probably be doubling up on quite a few songs. If you want a more comprehensive Mavericks' CD collection then get this and "What A Crying Shame" and "Music For All Occasions". You'll get their best songs and a few rarities thrown in for good measure. The Mavericks were/are a great American roots music band with one of the best voices in country/pop, nay, all music. Great Stuff. Highly Recommended.Free Music Review: An outstanding collection of their best work

Although the Mavericks were only moderately successful on the charts, they were still one of the liveliest and most innovative country acts of the mid-1990s. This 2-CD set captures them at their best, with one disc devoted to their early hits, and a second disc gathering their later work, including numerous rarities -- songs from soundtracks, tribute albums, singles, etc. From their punchy early twang to the later work that empahsized singer Raul Malo's uncanny likeness to the late Roy Orbison, this is a collection that will please longtime fans and newcomers alike!Free Music Review: Mavericks Gold

This is a great either for fans of the Mavericks or for those of us who are fans and introducing their music to friends and family. I love the sound of Raul Malo's voice and the guitars are fantastic. If you love country or even rock you will love this album. I highly recommend it.Free Music Review: What can I say?
Hit: 5 Stars
What can I say? One of the most underheard and underrated bands of all time. This is a great overview of their work. If you like this, try The acoustic Raul Malo CD. You won't be sorry!Free Music Review: What More Can There Be To Say

They were the BEST! Thank goodness for their music on cds since they are no longer a group. (AH..but Raul Malo is up and running on his own.)
