The Best Of Their Later Work
Sawyer Brown made their first real impact on "Star Search" many years ago as a somewhat goofy, pop-induced Country act. They made their mark with lightweight songs like "Betty's Bein' Bad" and "Step That Step." As they entered the 90's, Sawyer Brown held fast to their upbeat roots, but delved into deeper and sometimes very touching songs. This particular "Greatest Hits" plainly shows the listener that they're getting the top tunes from the group's albums from 1990-1995. What's amazing is that in only five years they did manage to build up such a catalogue worthy of being called "Greatest Hits."

Things start off with my personal favorite upbeat Sawyer Brown tune, "Some Girls Do." I actually requested that this tune be played at my wedding reception. It's quickly followed by "Thank God For You" and then the album takes a dark turn with "All These Years," which is, in my opinion, the toughest and greatest song ever put out by Sawyer Brown. It deals with not so much with adultery, but with what was happening that lead up to it. It's a great song. After that we get the humbling "Dirt Road" and another uptempo number in "This Time." "The Walk" follows that and shows us a more touching side to the band. "Trouble On The Line," another fun song about a broken heart comes next, followed by the decent "Cafe On The Corner" and "I Don't Believe In Goodbye." The last song on the album is "The Boys & Me" and it closes the album with a lighter touch than the songs that immediately preceded it.

Overall, this is a legitimate "Hits" album. Many other bands will toss a couple of modest hits and some filler tunes into a single album and try to pass it off as a "Greatest Hits" collection, but Sawyer Brown has enough songs in their catalogue to draw from to warrant two "Greatest Hits" collections.

If you enjoy punchy, upbeat Country that straddles that fine line between bands like Exile and Restless Heart, you're sure to enjoy this album from Sawyer Brown.

Highly recommended.

phenomenal
This was a terrific album featuring many of Sawyer Brown's great hits like "Cafe on the Corner" and "All These Years." It offers a wide variety of songs and was quite good, I thought. If you are a fan of Sawyer Brown, odds are you will like this album.

Its been awhile
Since i've listened to anything by Sawyer Brown. I remember them way back in the day being on Star Search and thinking. They are gonna be pretty big one day, i'm guessing from the fact that they have a couple greatest hits albums that its happened. This cd has a good amount of some S Brown hits from the period 1990-1995. I think this is a good intro to anyone that wants to get into Sawyer Brown.
