Title: The Best of the Columbia Years (1972-1977)
Product review: In 1972 Sonny James scored his last #1 hit on Capitol Records, "That's Why I Love You Like I Do." He followed up that release with his first #1 hit on Columbia Records, "When the Snow is on the Roses." Even though the "Southern Gentleman" never fully recaptured the abounding success he had during the Capitol years (1952-1959; 1963-1972), that is no reason to label this collection as second-rate. Moreover, every release found on this album charted in the top 15 on the Country charts, and two made it all the way to the top. Three compositions showcase the unrelenting talent of Sonny James as a songwriter, and every song was crafted with the signituare touch of Sonny James.Whether you are a veteran Sonny James fan, a new listener, or just someone who enjoys classic Country music, this concise collection is well worth it's budget-friendly price.
