5 out of 5 stars Great mix of covers and original.......2004-02-13

Hank was in great form when he recorded this album, which is typical of his music of the eighties - rooted in country but mixed with rock'n'roll and a touch of the blues. On this album, there is a nice mix of ballads and up-tempo rockers, half of them original songs with the other half being well chosen covers.

The original songs are the title track (a brilliant autobiographical song), Woman on the run, Queen of my heart (both brilliant bluesy ballads), She had me (a great rocker) and Now I know how George feels (a great song about the music business).

The covers are The air that I breathe (first recorded by Phil Everly in 1973 but a major international hit for the Hollies in 1974 - Hank gives this song a bluesy edge), Midnight rider (Allman brothers), Lovesick blues (one of his father's classic song, here featuring Leon Redbone), It just don't get it no more (Tony Joe White) and the classic Orange blossom special.

Hank recorded many great albums in the eighties and this is among my favorites. If you like his style, you'll love this album.

4 out of 5 stars MAN OF STEEL, BY HANK WILLIAMS J.R........2000-06-24

Hank made this album as good as the rest. I was satisfied with the song selections on this album and also the quality of the recording.....

2 out of 5 stars The best? I think not........2004-01-11

This disc includes some songs that, while I like them, are not what people might consider the "best" of G&S. Of course, anything by G&S is good, it's still not the "best of the best."

There has got to be something that better represents the G&S canon.

1 out of 5 stars can't understand the words.......2004-01-08

Don't know about those other reviewers, but I just can't make out very much of the lyrics. Maybe those folk have better CD players or better hearing, but it's pretty much a blur to me. I strongly recommend "The Ultimate Gilbert and Sullivan" instead.

      5 out of 5 stars The best ever version.......2002-06-07

      The wonderful cast transports you to the realms of Gilbert and Sullivan, to make you feel that you are experiencing a first night in 1881! John Reed, as Bunthorne, an aesthetic poet is superb, camp, subversive and a complete fraud. If anyone is not aware, the story of the opera is based upon the idiosyncracies of the Aesthetic movement in England of the 1880's and Gilbert used the public parodies of his friend Oscar Wilde as his major source. The rest of the cast, chorus and orchestra , under the long experienced 'Goddie' are superlative and make for one of the finest line-ups in D'Oyly Carte history. Revel and enjoy, for this is quite the best.

      5 out of 5 stars The Golden Cast of D'Oyly Carte!.......1999-04-13

      My wish had always been to see John Reed and the D'Oyly Carte Company in a performance of Patience. My mother had done so, remarking that, 'You'd need patience to watch it', she was coloured in her opinion, since she wanted to see 'The Mikado', but had gotten the wrong tickets! The recording, made in 1961, is superb in every detail. You are with the cast, on stage, in the auditorium, it is such a 'live' performance. The dialogue is delivered exquisitely, whilst the singing is uniformerly of the highest standard. I recently portrayed 'Bunthorne' and throughout my performances, I felt that I was continuing the legacy of Gilbert and Sullivan. All the past history of performers were there. I feel that Patience is a magical Savoy Opera. Do not miss the opportunity to own such a definitive performance. Maybe the subject of the 'Art Nouveau' periodof Victorian England is dated, but as one critic has already stated, every generation 'throws up' its poseures, to be knocked. 'Ah, me! lack aday!' BUY IT!

      4 out of 5 stars The Definitive Recording.......1998-12-09

      For those who prefer the traditional Savoyard renderings of the G&S canon, this is far and away the best recording of this parody of the cult of celebrity. John Reed leads the cast as a delightful Bunthorne, and the recording contains all of the opera's dialogue. "HMS Pinafore," "The Mikado," and "The Pirates of Penzance" may be better known, but "Patience" is deserving of a wider audience.

      4 out of 5 stars Good bargain........2004-08-25

      The performances are good--this is the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company, after all--and you get 2 full CDs, with 2 selections from "Trial by Jury", 5 from "HMS Pinafore", 9 from "The Pirates of Penzance", 9 from "Iolanthe", 12 from "The Mikado", 6 from "The Yeomen of the Guard", and 13 from "The Gondoliers". The booklet is a bit skimpy, and only lists recording dates for the first CD (1929-1949). But the sound is good, and the music is great, and at this price it's a great "greatest hits" collection.

      5 out of 5 stars His second best work.......2007-03-14

      Richard Searles ... oh how I wish I could play the guitar like him. I absolutley LOVE this CD. If you like smooth, breathy folksy classical guitar with Celtic over and under tones, this is for you. Buy this CD and you won't be disapointed. But only buy this one is you already own Emerald Castles by Richard Searles. That's his best work. This one is great, but that one is better.
