This is essentially his first two albums compiled, with the exception of a few songs. His first two albums are great. "Old # 1" and "Texas Cookin'". Great songs: Desperado's Waiting for a Train, Old Time Feeling, Let Him Roll, LA Freeway' and many more.
The opening lines to LA Freeway go something like this:
"Pack up all your dishes, Make note of all good wishes, Say 'Good-bye' to the landlord for me, That son of a bitch has always bored me". Have you ever heard better lyrics. The words to 'Old Time Feeling' are among the best ever written. Such great imagery: "Like an old bluestime picker, who don't recall who you are". I could go on forever.
