Collin Raye Love Me Country Music CD Review
The exceptionally talented Country artist Collin Raye has released his CD entitled Love Me. I am very confident and happy to announce that I believe Collin Raye fans, and Country fans alike will be pleased with this one. With the release of Love Me Collin Raye’s artistic excellence is on full display as Raye has once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks that could very well be his best work to date.
Love Me will grab your attention right out of the gate with Love Me and doesn't let go until the very last note of the very last song Sweet Miss Behavin, which is another great track by the way.
Unfortunately, it’s not everyday that I get a CD from an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can’t force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Love Me. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
One of the refreshingly nice things about this CD is the way all of the participating artists seem to be really enjoying themselves. Combine that with the overall presentation and you’ve got one of Collin Raye’s most impressive releases ever.
Overall Love Me is a solid release. Quite possibly Collin Raye's best to date. Really sensational from beginning to end. If you're even mildly into Country music you'll enjoy this CD.
While the entire CD is outstanding the truly standout tunes are track 2 - Any Old Stretch Of Blacktop, track 4 - Dreaming My Dreams With You, and track 10 - Sweet Miss Behavin.
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 1 - Love Me. It’s a great track!

RCA Country Legends $6.99 Personnel includes: Sylvia (vocals); Fred Newell (guitar, mandolin); John Hughey (steel guitar); Charlie McCoy (harmonica, vibraphone); David Briggs (piano, keyboards); Bobby Emmons (piano); Joe Osborn (bass); The Nashville Edition.Producers: Tom Collins, Brent Maher, Don Potter.Compilation producer: Rob Santos.Recorded in Nashville, Tennessee between 1980 & 1983. Includes liner notes by Rich Kienzle.All tracks have been digitally remastered.It's easy to see why hardcore country listeners expressed nothing but disdain for Sylvia during her hitmaking peak in the early '80s. At a time when country music already trending toward light, sweet pop music, Sylvia's records were the aural equivalent of cotton candy, so light they nearly floated in the air. Add her good looks to the equation, and she seemed like a model marketed as country to the legions of country purists. And they did have a point, since Sylvia's music was only marginally country. There was a bit of twang here and there, some traditionally country themes and song structures, but it was sugar-coated and polished to a gloss, fitting in better aurally with the soft rock of the time instead of even the country-pop. All this is evident on her 16-track installment of BMG Heritage's RCA Country Legends series. What makes this series interesting is that it doesn't use the Billboard charts as the sole guideline for compilation; instead, it takes the biggest hits and expands them with album cuts, B-sides, and rarities intended to draw a clearer picture of the artist's depth as a country artist. Usually, this has produced some very interesting, revealing collections, but it's an approach that's kind of odd for Sylvia, since her entire career only makes sense in terms of the charts, and this comes up short on hits. Of the 16 tracks, only six were hits, leaving 12 charting hits behind, including big ones like "Fallin' In Love," "Snapshot," "Sweet Yesterday," and "Like Nothing Ever Happened." For a chart-oriented artist, that's a lot of missing material, but RCA Country Legends still works -- and, in fact, functions as a nice counterpoint to Renaissance's comprehensive 1997 hits package Anthology -- because it's sequenced well, contains the biggest and best hits, while digging up a few choice cuts like "Cry Baby Cry," "No News Is Good News," "Tonight I'm Gettin' Friendly With the Blues," and "Eyes Like Mine" that prove that Sylvia did depth outside of the charts. That said, RCA Country Legends won't change any minds about her musical attributes -- this is still very soft country-pop, and even condensed to a collection, there are a few duff moments here and there -- but for those that like Sylvia or early-'80s soft rock, this is quite enjoyable and nearly as an effective an introduction to her as the hit-laden Anthology ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine |
