Perhaps Collectables Records should not get their hopes up on receiving 'Truth in Advertising' awards for this two-disc collection; a handy double set which compiled 's classic Monument sides along with highlights from his releases for Sun, M-G-M, and Virgin would be a more than welcome addition to his catalog, but despite the title that's not what has on board. This set features a whopping 47 tunes from 's Monument years, with his three best known Sun sides ('Ooby Dooby,' 'Rock House,' and 'Go! ) closing out disc two. All of 's classic '60s hits can be found on disc one, while a healthy selection of covers and lesser-knowns dominate the second half; it's all splendid material, even if the sequencing seems just a bit clunky in spots, and the mastering is more than adequate (though some of this material has sounded cleaner on previous CD releases). In short, as an overview of 's most creatively and commercially fruitful period, this compilation does a fine job, but as a full career retrospective, it falls considerably short of the mark, and the sudden emergence of 'Rockabilly Roy' at the very end is both odd and disorienting.
(The liner notes and cover art aren't much to write home about, either.) In short, the definitive hits package still remains to be assembled, though if you're looking to replace or upgrade your old copy of Monument's, this will give you just what you've been looking for.
