Though Haggard fans are likely to have a lot of this material on previous single-CD reissues or box sets, the logical album pairings and remastered 24-bit sound make these sets especially attractive. This is the real "Bakersfield sound", the type of country music I love and listen to. The best way to describe this distinctive sound which stands aside from the rest is the lead guitar played by none other than Roy Nichols or James Burton (they call it chicken pickin'. also don't forget the gut-wrenching, winding steel from Norm Hamlet.
