Real value for money, 11 Jan 2007
By Dr.Lee - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bird Named Yesterday, a/Talk Me Some Sense (Audio CD)
This a real value for money CD comprises two of Bobby Bare's earlier albums "Bird Named Yesterday" and "Talk Me Some sense" plus 7 extra bonus tracks.
"Bird Named Yesterday" undoubtedly is the very first concept album. It is also my favourite Bobby Bare album. The very nostalgic story songs suit Bobby Bare laid back voice and style 100%. Makes you want to hear the songs over and over again. The tunes are all very easy to like and sing-along to.
The chorus by veteran chorus group Anita Singers really add quality to the songs.
The songs from "Bird Named Yesterday" are excellent and each telling a different favourite past such as the "Old Swimming Hole", "The Old Home Town", and "I've Got a Thing about Train". "The Old Gang's Gone" and "Air Conditional Song" are my two favourites in this CD full of memories. The more you listen to it, the more you will want to hear it over and over again. It will just grow on you. That I can guarantee you!
Songs from the album "Talk Me Some Sense" are mainly Folk-Country songs which Bobby Bare was a pioneer after his hit "500 Miles Away From Home". Bobby Bare did excellent version of Bob Dylan's "It Ain't Me Babe" and also Johnny Cash's hit "The Long Black Veil". "Little Bit Later On Down the Line" and "Heaven Help My Soul" are two songs worth mentioning.
This CD also includes 7 extra bonus tracks which are not usually available on compilation CD of Bobby Bare such as the two nice hit singles, "Town That Broke My Heart" and "Sandy Crying Again". Buy it and you shall not be disappointed.

Respectful treatment of a Nashville legend, 16 July 2008
By Eugene J. Casey - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bird Named Yesterday, a/Talk Me Some Sense (Audio CD)
This is how non-greatest hits collections should be presented: complete with liner notes, good sound and due respect. Bobby Bare was a progressive in a town that routinely shortchanges its heritage. The "Bird" album is as GREEN as country music gets. Some hits here too.

Bobby at his best, 7 Feb 2008
By R. Berryman "RMB" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bird Named Yesterday, a/Talk Me Some Sense (Audio CD)
Bobby Bare was at the peak of his career when he cut these two albums (on this one CD). Not only is his singing excellent, but the production and arranging is top-notch "Nashville Sound", when Chet Atkins was RCA's Music Director. On "A Bird Named Yesterday", a concept album, Bobby takes us back to times which are sadly gone forever, and creates musical images almost as vivid as a color video! On "Talk Me Some Sense", Bobby takes on some of the songs of the late 1960's, giving them better renditions than most of the originals, assisted by super arranging. This is a wonderful album, and if you've ever liked Bobby Bare, you'll love this. I also recommend "Lullabies, Legends, and Lies", in the same genre.
