Tenor saxophonist Boots Randolph released numerous instrumental country-pop albums throughout the `60s and `70s. Randolph`s choice of instrumentals were geared toward both the country and easy listening audiences. This Bear Family compilation focuses on Randolph`s early recordings, featuring "Hey Elvis," "Blue Guitar," and "Estrellita," and his biggest chart-topper, "Yakety Sax." At 23 tracks, Yakety Sax is probably more than the casual Boots Randolph listener will need. If you`re looking to buy only one Randolph disc, check out Greatest Hits on Monument. ~ Al Campbell
