"Tammy Wynette, AKA "The First Lady of Country Music", had more than 60 hits, so the single disc, 10-track collection couldn't begin to satisfy her fans. Still, if you're new to country, or Tammy, or both, it's a great introduction, with no fewer than 7 hits that reached #1 on the Country Chart, including signature tunes like "Stand By Your Man", "D-I-V-O-R-C-E" and "Kids Say the Darndest Things". Her beautiful cover of the Everly Bros' "Crying In the Rain" didn't climb quite so high on the chart, but should have, as it's even better than the original (which is saying a lot.) Tammy was one of the all-time greats of Country."
