Free Music Review: 12 of Ray's best
Hit: 5 Stars

like most of the other Millennium Collection titles, this one did on Ray Stevens is also essential because it captures 12 of the comedian's best known songs. being a Ray Stevens nut like i am, i'd prefer obscure and little known album tracks too because they were just as good as the singles. but the 12 compiled here are chart dictated: only two singles didn't reach Top-40 status, 1966's #91 pop hit "Freddy Feelgood" and the closing song called "Would Jesus Wear a Rolex?" from 1987 fell one position short, peaking at #41 on the country chart. ironically, this CD doesn't have "Mississippi Squirrel Revival" or "It's Me Again, Margaret"...two of his most requested songs and the squirrel song actually hit the Top-40 too: peaking at #20 in early 1985. Ray's pop hits dominate the CD since the bulk of his classic singles of the '60s and '70s charted pop. it wasn't until the mid '70s that he started hitting the country chart with more frequency, and having bigger hits with that format as the decade closed. "Shriner's Convention", his final Top-10 hit released in 1980, reached #7 and it's ALSO one of his most requested songs. that hilarious story that made Bubba, Coy, and Room 321 catch-phrases is track 11. the obvious hit singles are here: "Ahab the Arab", "Gitarzan", "Everything is Beautiful", "The Streak", "Misty", and his big 1971 gospel hit "Turn Your Radio On". all in all, this is a great CD for people to have, even though the songs are available on other collections out there. for those that don't want album tracks, no matter how good they might be, this is the CD for you to have!
