This is the one I listen too when I'm driving.
Oh yeah...and I sing along. This is sophisticated country. This CD will please your senses and awaken your imagination. If you think you don't like country music...listen to this one and you'll think again.

All his best stuff
Not that much into C&W despite living in Texas for over 30 years. To me, most of these acts all sound (and look) the same. Dwight Yoakam really is different. Good songwriter, unique style and takes his que from performers like Buck Owens who paved the way for him. Lots of good cuts on here: "a Thousand Miles from Nowhere", a great cover of Elvis' "Suspicious Minds" Well worth the money.

Not bad...
This is full of MOST of his greatest hits and some good ones I have never heard before... I listen to it constantly, and now my kids love it as well. The only criticism is that there are a few songs missing... Pocket of a Clown, Claudette, Always Late with your kisses.... where are these songs???? I thought this was a greatest hits CD?

Missing a few hits, but overall great collection
probably the best collection out for this artist, although the cover art shown is NOT the album i purchased

A Great Introduction to Dwight
It's difficult to choose just 20 "best" Dwight songs, although I think this CD does an admirable job. It's a pretty broad overview of his career until 2003, and it is the CD that caused me to start digging Dwight. I had always preferred rock music to country, but that was until I heard Dwight. He covers some Elvis, Queen and Cheap Trick on here in his own inimitable style. Plus his own songs have a lot of rock aesthetic in them, such as "Guitars, Cadillacs" and "Fast As You." There are some true "country" gems as well, like "Honky Tonk Man" and "Streets of Bakersfield" (with Buck Owens, whom everybody loves!!). Beautiful ballads as well, e.g. "I Sang Dixie" and "You're The One." Overall, a really nice compilation and I heartily recommend it, especially as an introduction to Dwight's music. It does have my favorite Dwight song, "It Only Hurts When I Cry," which he co-wrote with the late, great Roger Miller. That said, it's still missing some other must-hear songs like "Miner's Prayer," "Fair to Midland" and "A Place to Cry."
