"Bear Family continues to outdo itself with these immense boxsets. I have been a fan of Stonewall Jackson since I can remember, and the numbers included here I have not heard since I had a turntable and 33's. The sound presented here is superb...but what else would you expect. Sure, these box sets are pricy, but when you consider the incredible sound, detailed large booklet detailing the discography and artists' career, and the large number of songs, it is worth your money. This box set covers the earlier years of Stonewall, when he was topping the charts regularly. The better-known songs are included here (including "Waterloo", "Why I'm Walkin'", and "Dont Be Angry"), but there's also a whole catalog of early releases that you may not have heard, but will definately enjoy. The only criticism I have is that I cant decide which of the 4 discs I enjoy listening to the most! A great Box-set....get it. A+"
