Another Vote for Ol' Cowboy April 21, 2006 James Drabiszczak (Brookfield, WI United States) 7 out of 11 found this review helpful
I've got to agree with some of the other comments. Leaving off This Ol' Cowboy is ridiculous.
Too much left off August 18, 2007 James Cantrell (Tennessee) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
The Marshall Tucker Band is perfect for a 2 disc career overview because save for the band's first two releases, its albums have been spotty, one or two very good songs with one or two toss-aways and three or four decent songs. It would seem that those in charge of such an anthology would have an easy time selecting the right songs, because at least half of the selections should be made without any question, and another quarter of the selections made with only the slightest hesitation. Leaving 'This Ole Cowboy' off a Marshall Tucker Band anthology is like leaving 'Saturday Night Special' or 'That Smell' off a Lynyrd Skynyrd anthology. It is not the band's biggest 'hit,' but it certainly is among the handful of the band's greatest performances. Nor is 'This Ole Cowboy' the only grating omission. 'Hillbilly Band' from the self-titled debut and 'Blue Ridge Mountain Sky' from the second album A New Life definitely belong. Another 4 or 5 songs from the early years probably belong on any MTB anthology.

Have really enjoyed this CD. Brings back a lot of memories from the 70's. Those were the days when music was music. My 16 year old son even liked it.
Great 2 Disc Set! March 19, 2006 Celtic Knut (NY) 5 out of 8 found this review helpful
While this doesn't have all of The Marshall Tucker Band's greatest hits, none of them do in my experience, it is still an awesome collection of one of the most underrated bands in their genre. "This Ol' Cowboy" isn't on the Anthology, which is why it didn't get a 5 star rating from me. There are two recorded versions of this song that I know of, one done by the band and one Toy Caldwell did on his solo album. I have both, so it isn't a big deal that it wasn't on this set. Although not complete, I highly recommend this to any Marshall Tucker fan.
Should be complete March 22, 2005 Gary A. Throldahl (N. Mankato, MN United States) 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
Finally the bulk of MTB remastered. Sounds very good, BUT where the hell is "This ol' Cowboy" and "Never Trust A Stranger"? With 30 songs in a two disc set, this is unforgivable.
