Mel tillis CD hitside 70-80 s - I ve always been a Mel Tillis fan and this CD is awesome, it has all my favorites. He is a wonderful singer/songwriter and I do a lot of his songs in my own singing gigs. With his influence, I also write his type of country traditional songs. Worth every cent.
Better Than I Ever Expected - I picked this up on a lark -- boy was I surprised! Mel was not just a gifted writer and singer, his records were cut by the very cream of the crop in terms of production, musicians, and backing vocals.There are many many hits here, most of which I had completely forgotten even existed -- great melodies like Neon Rose, and impossible-to-get-out-of-your-mind numbers like Melody Maker or Sawmill. There s not a mediocre song here.A great collection, long overdue. This is a must-have for old-school country fans.
M-M-M-M-MEL! - A GREAT COLLECTION FROM A GREAT COUNTRY SINGER. IF YOU ARE A MEL TILLIS FAN THIS ONE IS A MUST HAVE.
Great album - Anyone who is a fan of Mel Tillis will enjoy the song selection on this CD.
I ve Been Waiting for this one - If you ve been looking for a definitive collection of one of Country Music s premier songwriters, well, here it is. This is a Raven Records release (Australian) and I admit to be a bit hesitant to order it. But, the sound and mixing is just fine and well worth the affordable price. This CD contains 25 songs (4 bonus tracks, including Detroit City). The earliest Mel hits are here, including Sawmill, Midnight...., and Arms of a Fool. Best of all, they re Original, not lame re-recordings. There s also a fine set of liner notes which provide a detailed bio and quick-discography review of Mel for the decade of 70- 80. Get it while it s still available.
