Mixed Emotions
Artist: Sammi Smith

Sammi sounds great on this album. In addition to her 1977 hit on Tom Jan's "Loving Arms," she takes songs like "A Woman Left Lonely" and "I've Seen Better Days" and makes them so thoroughly her own, you can't imagine anyone else ever trying to tackle them. ~ Jim Worbois, All Music Guide Read More

Country Music Then & Now
Artist: The Statler Brothers

Nostalgia is the theme of the Statler Brothers' 1972 album Country Music Then & Now, so much so that even the "now" is "then" -- many of the group's new compositions concern the past in one way or another.

Kenny
Artist: Kenny Rogers

Kenny took a more romantic approach with Kenny. Though it contained the hit character sketch "Coward of the County," the album was mainly comprised of love songs like "You Decorated My Life" and "She's A Mystery." With such strong singles, the album actually became a bigger hit than its predecessor, The Gambler. ~ James Chrispell, All Music Guide Read More

Here You Come Again
Artist: Dolly Parton

It might be the short length of this album that inevitably makes it feel like it just didn't quite all come together, yet there are plenty of high points, such as the catchy title tune, the grooving "It's All Wrong, But It's All Right," "Two Doors Down," and the typically Parton-esque charm of "Cowgirl and the Dandy." Some problems originate... Read More
