Customer Reviews
A Fine Start
But, here's a sampling of original recordings of one of the greatest fiddler's/songwriters/guitarists ever to grace the stage. At such an affordable price, it would be hard to provide a complete collection of any artist of Charlie Daniels' caliber. There were quite a few omissions when this collection came together, and possibly, some numbers that were included, could've been replaced with those that weren't! But, there's not a stinker among this compilation. I'll be the first to admit that there are much better collections out there, but for this price, you will never find a better "basic" introduction to Charlie Daniels' music. . . . but how could they omit "Legend of Wooly Swamp"? B+ .

A-OK CDB
From his first hit, the classic tall tale UNEASY RIDER through his affectionate tribute THE SOUTH'S GONNA DO IT to patriotic anthems STILL IN SAIGON and IN AMERICA, the guitar and fiddle wielding North Carolina native is a charismatic favorite of practically everybody. The Charlie Daniels Band is the musical bridge that connects straight ahead country music to southern fried rock better than anyone else. SUPER HITS also lets rip with the barstool belter DRINKIN' MY BABY GOODBYE, line dance request BOOGIE WOOGIE FIDDLE COUNTRY BLUES (as apt a description of Daniels' style as any), and his best known kicker THE DEVIL WENT DOWN TO GEORGIA. You even get an updated UNEASY RIDER '88, this time involving a ruckus in a (ahem) "fern bar", although I'd druther have missing older tracks WITCHITA JAIL and THE LEGEND OF WOOLEY SWAMP, both fine story songs in their own right. Overall though, SUPER HITS is a good ol' collection from a good ol' boy. RATING: FOUR FIDDLES

I loved it!!
First of all, in my opinion "Uneasy Rider" is one of the funniest tunes I ever heard. As I get older I find it more and more difficult to find record albums that I like well enough to buy, but this is one. This one is an old favorite of mine from my college days, and whenever I hear it it takes me back to the Summer of '73. In fact I thought it was THE funniest tune around until I heard Uneasy Rider '88. Absolutely hilarious, and not to be missed.

I liked most of the other tunes on this album very much, and now that I've listened to the album several times, I like them all. That's rare.
