Reception [ edit ] Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating Allmusic [1]
In his Allmusic review, Bruce Eder describes the album as "These 119 songs over five CDs represent Ernest Tubb at the very peak of his career musically and commercially, from 1947 until 1953. Disc One is filled with winners; Tubb's voice on these and the rest of the songs in this collection is at its richest and most expressive, not exactly soaring (it never did that) but never straining into the top of his range..."[1]
