### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Views of a Country outsider
*by E***N on June 28, 2010*

Listening to this CD was like visiting a foreign country for me. I was born in 48, started listening to RnR with Elvis, started listening to Blues and Jazz in the 60s. I never had a good thing to say about country. I don't really like almost any of the country that has come out in the last 30 years or so. Just don't get it. I have purchased the entire Bear Family history of RnB from 1946 through 1970. Much of that, especially the older stuff was new for me. I was a Chicago Blues fan in particular and a lot of that old RnB escaped my notice. But Bear Family got me into a whole new musical love.So I was hoping for the same by trying one of the ones in the Country series. Thought I'd start with the most recent first; at least I'd recognize a few songs. I've got to say that many of these remind me of old blues stuff from the early 50s: simple arrangements with room to breath, understated songs of great emotional power. I've considered for several years trying to find a good country collection from the 50s and early 60s and I think this is it. I'll buy backwards from 55 and for sure buy the next batch when it comes out. Lots of fun here. This one is loaded up on my Ipod next to John Coltrane, Charlie Patton, the Rolling Stones and Muddy Waters.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An awesome view of 1955! I love it!
*by J***  on March 14, 2014*

My wife thought I was nuts for buying this, but I have been in love with music ever since I got my first record from my father. (It was a 45 rpm copy of Elvis Presley's Jail House Rock / Treat Me Nice.) That song isn't on this CD, but many of the songs on here have special meaning for me. This takes me back to when I was a kid and first realized that I really liked music! This is a fantastic collection of songs from the early 50's. It is a GREAT compilation!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Cd if you like old country.
