2014 three CD collection. The Jim Reeves story started in Panola County, Texas, in August 1923 and ended when he died in a plane crash on 31st July 1964 - yet even today, half a century later, he is still a legend. The Country Music Hall of Fame, to which he was elected posthumously in 1967, made the following citation: 'The velvet style of Gentleman Jim Reeves was an international influence. His rich voice bought millions of new fans to country music from every corner of the world. Posterity will keep his name alive because they will remember him as one of Country Music's most important performers.' Review: Best music ever - I love his CDs! Very satisfied. No skipping. Great soothing music Review: Great price for 75 songs!!! - There is 3 disks and 75 different songs at this great price!!!

Love that Velvet Voice!
I find myself humming these songs all day long (and sometimes all night too). The 3 disc set covers all his hits, many of which I didn't realize were his. Love his voice! We played "Welcome to My World" as our wedding dance 46 years ago & it still takes me back to that moment. My 93 yr old mother wants me to play them over and over. The 2nd disk hangs up on one song, but otherwise very good quality. I had this on my Christmas wish list for 5 years and finally decided to buy it for myself! No regrets!!!

Generally a good buy and a good collection, with a few problems
This is a pretty good 3-CD set that most Jim Reeves fans will probably enjoy. It's a great buy for 75 tracks as well. The sound quality is pretty good in general, not quite as good as "The Real Jim Reeves" set that was also issued recently by Sony, though. There is some minor distortion on a few tracks but nothing major, and most people probably won't even notice it. On the downside, the song selection from track to track is sometimes not the best. Monophonic 50's honky-tonk country songs and other older mono material is interspersed with Jim's polished and intimate stereo performances from the early 1960's, which can be quite annoying. I think most of us are Jim Reeves fans based largely on his 1959-1964 recording career, "the stereo years", and also because of the many well-produced overdubbed songs and albums that were issued after his death under the control of his widow, Mary Reeves. I sometimes listen to the honky-tonk material from the 50's, but it is generally inferior to the later material. I personally would be fine without any of the pre-1958 material on this set, which I find myself skipping over when it comes on. It was recorded before Jim Reeves found his true element. One very bizarre track included on this set is the song "Railroad Bum". I like the song, but I was playing this in my car and thought something went wrong with my player, then wondered if the company had put in a recording by a different singer by mistake. The producers of this CD sped up the recording, reducing the running time to cut about 10 seconds from total time, and Jim's voice is so fast and higher-pitched that it doesn't sound like him, especially sandwiched between two slower tempo tracks, "The Mighty Everglades" and "The Tie That Binds". Except for these minor annoyances, this is in general a good set. I'd still recommend "The Real Jim Reeves" first though, that one has the recordings that are generally in chronological order of when they were recorded, superior mastering and sound quality, and is also an excellent buy.

Great CD!
My mother loves Jim Reeves & I asked her what she wanted for X-mas, she said any CD by Jim Reeves. I came to Amazon because I knew it would have the best selection of CDs, looked over the ones by Jim Reeves & decided this would be the best choice. My mother was delighted when she unwrapped the package and has practically worn out the CD because she's been playing it so much. She never tires of the music. I can't tell you how many times I've come over to the house & she's blaring the CD away on her Bose CD player. I made an excellent choice, I think this is the best CD by Jim Reeves that Amazon has to offer.

A great collection of Jim Reeves songs
This is a nice collection of Jim Reeves' music. I have been a fan since I was a child and listened to my parents' LPs when they played them. The old country classics are still the best!
