RE-RECORDINGS WHAT?
I am very sensitive when something is re-recorded and not like the original. I dont know what some of these reviewers are talking about. I can't tell the difference. This is the best of Kenny Rogers. The sound quality is phenomenal. I think some folks pick on things just to pick on them. There's no case here.
The only thing negative would be that there could be some songs off of his "Back Home Again" album. Despite this, this is a great sounding collection. I especially liked the new songs. The one with Whitney Duncan :"My World Is Over" is probably my favorite. Kenny Rogers has shown once again how he can stay current and even involve newer younger artists. Definitely recommend this one!!!!!!.


Kenny Rogers
This is a wonderful collection of his best work. Kenny Rogers is one of the great artists of our time. .


very unhappy
It seems like someone copy it off a radio. I feel the quality is poor, I have several of his CD and this one just sounds differnt. .


If you are thinking about buying this disc, ignore the negative reviews on here!
The only disc that I had was full of lousy re-recordings. I wanted a good collection of Kenny Rogers music to use for my DJ service. In my mind, if they are not the original recordings that actually became hits, then they are worthless to me. I read all of the mixed reviews here on Amazon regarding this collection, but decided to take a risk and purchase it. I have listened to the full collection 3 times in full. Many reviewers are saying that this collection is full of re-recordings, but that is not true. These ARE the original hit recordings. This is a great, quality collection. Yes, the first 5 tracks are Kenny Rogers & The First Edition- but the package states that they are. Besides, he made those particular songs hits when he WAS with The First Edition. Those ARE the originals. You won't find a better Kenny Rogers collection out there; believe me- I've searched. The only things that could have made this collection better, are if they would have given us Kenny's solo version of Ruben James ALSO, along with the First Edition version. They also could have left off the last song on the 2nd CD. It's a new one called "We Are The Same", and it's a real stinker. The last thing that could have made this collection even better, is if it could have also included the beautiful song "I Can't Un-Love You". . . . but it didn't even exist at the time that this collection was released, so that wouldn't have been possible.


Re-recordings?
I really, REALLY wish I hadn't bought this album. . though they are close, it seems he's re-recorded a lot of these songs. . . this isn't what it should be. . one star for not disclosing the songs are altered from what we all bought on 8 track, etc. . .

New recordings doesn't equal better recordings!

off to find the old stuff.
