This Pearl collection deserves its lofty title, but barely. Though many of these selections would never have occurred to country fans ("You Are My Sunshine" by the Rice Brothers Gang "Born to Lose" by Ted Daffan), 26 All-Time Country Classics balances about a dozen all-time classics with great tracks by obscure singers. Appearing alongside the undeniable standards -- "Walkin' the Floor Over You" by Ernest Tubb, "Shame on You" by Spade Cooley, "New San Antonio Rose" by Bob Wills, "Orange Blossom Special" by Bill Monroe, "Brown's Ferry Blues" by the Delmore Brothers, "Tumbling Tumbleweeds" by Gene Autry, "I Want to Be a Cowboy's Sweetheart" by Patsy Montana, "I'll Hold You in My Heart" by Eddy Arnold, and "Wabash Cannonball" by Roy Acuff -- are songs like "The Runaway Train" by Vernon Dalhart, "Sioux City Sue" by Zeke Manners & His Band, and "Cain's Stomp" by Luke Wills Rhythm Busters. It makes for a fascinating compilation, especially for country fans who've already dug under the surface of the music. ~ Earl Simmons
