This is a truly excellent double-disc collection by one of the great, unjustly overlooked honky-tonkers. From his first hit, "Goin` Steady," in 1952, to "The Comeback" 10 years later, Faron Young recorded a steady stream of singles for Capitol, most of which reached the country charts, making Young a superstar. Despite a deep debt to Hank Williams ("Goin` Steady," though credited to Young, is actually a Williams song; Williams gave it to Young after stealing his girlfriend), Young stakes his claim to the genre with a half-hillbilly/half-pop singing style and a masterful command of his material.
All of Young`s biggest hits are here, including the impossibly catchy "Live Fast, Love Hard, Die Young," Young`s self-penned "All Right," the jaunty "Alone with You," the Elvis-inspired "Country Girl," and his timeless take on Willie Nelson`s "Hello Walls" (Young was one of the first to record Nelson`s work). Though cleaner and more commercial than some of the raw-edged honky-tonk that preceded him (and that followed him in later roots revivals), Young`s performances are of a remarkably high caliber, making this set an essential addition to any traditional-country library.
