If you haven't already, please disregard the 1st online review - the person who wrote it is actually giving CAPITOL RECORDS a 2-star rating, NOT Chris Ledoux. Granted, these songs have all been released previously (which is obvious if you read the list of songs included in the compilation), but obviously Chris won't be releasing any new songs, since he's deceased.

Naturally, we in Wyoming are extremely proud of our down-home boy, so I might sound biased. I also have copies of every tape & CD ever released, but this is still a great gift for anyone who loves C/W, rockabilly, rodeo, lighthearted songs about being a cowboy, or great ballads. You won't find anything better in the above music categories.

These are all great songs, but Capitol should be ashamed to release yet another Chris LeDoux compilation. Where is some unreleased material?

As I've stated on other LeDoux reviews, Chris is my favorite singer, I have all his CDs, I've been a fan for more than 25 years, and I was a longtime member of his fan club (until the founder passed away). I LOVE Chris LeDoux's music, and I consider him a hero of sorts.

But since 1994 (12 years, obviously), Capitol has issued 10 Chris compilations of one kind or another: Best of (1994), American Cowboy box set (1994), Rodeo Rock 'n' Roll Collection (1995), Live (1997)--a great CD, Greatest Hits (1999), Cowboy (2000)--a great CD, but remakes of old songs, Capitol Collection box set (2002), 20 Originals (2004), Anthology Volume 1 (2005), and now Ultimate Collection (2006). Enough!

More than a year and a half has passed since Chris' untimely and unfortunate death in March of 2005. Why can't Capitol issue some unreleased material? Yes, the first box set has two unreleased songs and Anthology has one. But Chris started recording albums almost 30 years ago, and surely somewhere--if not from his independent days (when he made his best records) then from his Capitol/Liberty days--there must be a cache of unreleased material. Why can't Capitol give us something new? Why does the label keep recycling Chris' already released (and great) songs?

It is past time for Capitol to truly honor Chris LeDoux and burnish his wonderful legacy by giving his fans some unreleased material. PLEASE!! October 12, 2006
