Been listening to the boys for that long. Bed of Roses is a coming of age darker side story song. A boy living on the streets taken in by a prostitute. "She took me in and taught me all the things that a man should know" - a very engrossing tale and a country classic. I'm just not sure if there is a better Statler song than this (yes, others as good but not better.) The Randolph Scott song is a, basically, (I guess) movie cowboy tribute and I doubt anyone (a few) under 50 or so can really relate to much of it unless they are an old western movie buff. Do you Remember These is a lot like the Scott song. It's a 40's & 50's cultural review (maybe some 60's) and again, if you're not 50 or more you may not relate. It doesn't matter, it's a great song and maybe it will provoke you into Googling or Binging some terms and learning.

Carry Me Back is a bit emotional and heart tugging that leads into the country classic: Flowers On The Wall. How can you not love a song about playing solitaire till dawn with a deck of 51? The class of 57 - think of your high school class... then who you knew and what happened to them - it will be like class of '74 is to me. A more soulful and everlasting song of devotion hasn't been recorded "better" than: I'll Go To My Grave Loving You. Pictures is one sentimental song that you just put your friends and family into "your" pictures and you'll be singing along in no time.

Thank You World is, the groups song of being grateful to sing and sing with each other. A nice song but to me doesn't quite get the best title but hey who cares they sing it great. New York City is another classic Statlers dark side story song. A lament of a father who didn't step up when he got her pregnant and now she's alone in New York City with the baby - terrific song! Susan When She Tried can take you a lot of places. It takes me to the girl (not me personally, per se) who knocked her self out for you and you did not do the same for her and now it's too late and you know it.

This is a terrific "portrait album" of the Statlers. Buy it. You won't regret it. These men are the real deal that cleared the path for the groups: Alabama, the Oak Ridge Boys etc. Buy all the Statlers you can but this really is a greatest hits album and it deserves you and you it!
