Customer Reviews

The Ultimate Collection
Yes, this is the ultimate collection--literally! In fact, it is a track for track reproduction of UTV's 2000 release, THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION. However, with that compilation now out of print, this 2005 MCA release is the definitive collection by default. Casual fans may still be satisfied with 1988's 12-track GREATEST HITS, but any serious music fan will want this comprehensive 32 track 2-CD set. Although she died tragically at age 30, she has continued to influence everyone from Loretta Lynn and Dolly Parton to Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris and most recently LeAnn Rimes. But make no mistake, there was only one Patsy Cline, and songs like "Crazy" and "I Fall to Pieces" will be country classics for as long as there is country music

fine collection of hits by Patsy Cline
Patsy Cline Gold is a terrific two CD set collection of some of Patsy Cline's greatest hits and ballads. The sound quality is very good and the artwork is very nicely done as well. This is a keeper for Patsy Cline fans; and people who want a thorough introduction to Patsy Cline's artistry will be pleased with this as well.

"Walkin' After Midnight" starts the first CD with a wonderful number by Patsy; she aces this easily and I love how she delivers this ballad with all her heart and soul! Patsy Cline's uncanny sense of timing and her excellent diction enable her to sing this song--and many others--so very well. "A Poor Man's Roses (Or A Rich Man's Gold)" has a very pretty melody; and I really like "A Poor Man's Roses (Or A Rich Man's Gold)." "True Love" features Patsy taking a classic love song and giving it a fine country twist to make it all her own! "Crazy" is probably one of Patsy Cline's better known hits; and I could never tire of hearing her sing "Crazy" in her beautiful style.

"Have You Ever Been Lonely (Have You Ever Been Blue)" features Patsy front and center--right where she belongs! The melody is great and the music fits in perfectly with Patsy's singing of these lyrics. I also like "South Of The Border (Down Mexico Way);" "South Of The Border (Down Mexico Way)" gets the royal treatment from Patsy Cline who delivers this effortlessly--she was THAT talented! In addition, "Bill Bailey, Won't You Please Come Home" shines bright as Patsy gives this a sensitive treatment at a slower tempo than I'm used to--but it all holds its own very well. "Heartaches" is yet another tune that Patsy takes and makes into a country classic thereby putting her own stamp on it; and this sounds very good.

The second CD continues the hits. "Anytime" has Patsy singing at her very best; and the harmonica adds a lot to the arrangement! "Half As Much" is a tender ballad that I enjoy hearing when Patsy Cline sings it; and listen for "When I Get Through With You (You'll Love Me Too);" this is some great ballad and Patsy really shows her might on this tune! "Back In Baby's Arms" is about a love that goes over a few bumps but lasts despite the rough times; and there's also "Someday (You'll Want Me To Want You)." Patsy performs this ballad with panache and this really impresses me; she must be born to sing songs like these! "Always" is another fine song that Patsy Cline delivers with lots of style and grace.

"Crazy Arms" is a number that stuns me with its beauty; and Patsy never sings a superfluous note! The two CD set ends well with "Sweet Dreams (Of You);" this is a fantastic final ballad and it leaves me wanting more!

Patsy Cline was clearly one of the greatest female country singers were ever saw; and I doubt there'll be another quite like her for some while to come. Patsy's fans will love this and it makes the perfect introduction to Patsy Cline and her artistry.

Great collection
This is a great collection of songs at a great price by the all-time best female country singer, Patsy Cline. And another thing this set has going for it, is "Imagine That" appears in true stereo not in mono as in the 4 CD Collection box set and in the Millenium Edition. Patsy Cline Gold contains 32 carefully selected tunes at a great price, so if you're wondering where to start get this one. Trust me, you'll love it.
