You don't have to get very far into Alan Jackson's splendid second anthology of hits before you're struck by how well the rangy Georgian has built his catalogue and how beautifully Keith Stegall continually produces his songs, filling the instrumental breaks with unexpectedly creative solos. While Jackson's choice of cover songs is usually inspired ("Pop-A-Top," "Little Bitty"), he's a deft writer, alternating his tongue-in-cheek, Sheriff Andy Taylor persona with his "just a singer of simple songs" earnestness, lacing it all with an unfettered delivery and a Haggardesque dedication to the bedrock honky-tonk sound. There are times when he edges too close to formula, running the romanticized, small-town, cornbread-and-chicken conceits ("Where I Come From") into the ground. But then he quickly redeems himself with a lip-tremblingly good "Drive" or "Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning)." This package consists of two discs, 16 hits and two new cuts filling the first and an unnecessary and somewhat inferior eight album tracks occupying the second. Of the two new songs, the emotional husband-and-wife ballad "Remember When" handily outdistances the too-trite "It's Five O'Clock Somewhere" with perennial smart-ass Jimmy Buffett. Jackson's too good an artist to settle for such an easy reach, but hey, let's cut him a little slack. He's paid his dues. --Alanna Nash

5ALAN JACKSON - GREATEST HITS 2  Dec 05, 2009
I found this to be a nice compilation of my favorite Alan Jackson songs. It was well worth the money. Previously I only had one of his cd's and it was his newest of the time...Good Time.

5What's Promised  Apr 28, 2009
This cd is just what it promises to be. A fine follow up collection of Alan Jackson's best. I am not a huge country fan, but some artists I do like and follow them. Between this cd and his first greatest hits, I have a fine collection of all of the songs I wanted from AJ

5great cd!!  Jan 11, 2009

5Alan Jackson music  Sep 11, 2008
To start off with we are talking Alan Jackson. His music is great. The only thing that would of made it a better cd was if there were more songs.
