Review

The problem with this short ten-song collection is that none of the tracks are the original single versions that most listeners will be looking for, and given the many compilations of Glen Campbell material on the market, there is really no compelling reason to stop at this one. Half the cuts are live performances, including one in which two fine Jimmy Webb songs, "Wichita Lineman" and "Galveston," get sandwiched into a medley, and everything else is a stereo re-recording and not the original track. ~ Steve Leggett, All Music Guide
