Some of Loretta Lynn's best

""Blue-eyed Kentucky Girl" is basically a compilation CD, but one that is worth having! Highlighting some of her most memorable songs from around the early 1970s, like the timeless "Coal Miner's Daughter" and groundbreaking "The Pill," the album features both slower-tempo hits like "Somebody Led Me Away" to her more fast-paced numbers ("Rated X"). This CD showcases what Loretta does best, country songs from her own point of view, a woman's point of view, but both men and women will enjoy listening. If you want a collection highlighting Loretta's best songs, this is the CD to have, and at a very reasonable price!"

Loretta Lynn at Her Classic Best

"A great low-cost introduction to the great Loretta Lynn at her peak! This collection of vintage originals includes many of her most legendary songs including COAL MINER's DAUGHTER. All of the songs on the album were big smashes for Loretta with the exception of ANOTHER MAN LOVED ME LAST NIGHT which was just an album track from her original CMD album and not a single release. It's a superb performance and worth remembering but one wonders how it got onto this collection. And very curiously, why is one of Loretta's early smashes BLUE KENTUCKY GIRL renamed BLUE EYED KENTUCKY GIRL here (and also used for the title of the CD). Certainly there are far more comphrensive Loretta CDS out there but this low-price set is a wonderful choice to give as a gift to friends who may not yet be Loretta fans and who no doubt will become one after this CD."
