Format:Audio CD
An exellent compilation of the Outlaws' first five albums. These were the band's best albums in any case. Never quite able to equal their first superb eponymous debut album, the Outlaws still showed that they were unequalled for quality Country Rock in their heyday.
If you do like this material, I also recommend The Allman Brothers compilations and also get Molly Hatchet's Greatest Hits.

Format:Audio CD
One of america's best kept secrets ,The Outlaws released their debut in 1975 and for the rest of the decade never looked back before petering out amid fall outs ,death etc.The first 2 albums ,the debut already mentioned and its follow up 'Lady In Waiting(1976) are held in the highest regard and its from those that the lions share of the tracks come,11 tracks in all out of sixteen.
Many people come to this band expecting Skynyrd or Molly Hatchet type rock but they were closer to country and only occasionally dabbled in the heavier side,certainly live they toughened up.From the opening 'There Goes Another Love song' to the closing 'Ghost Riders...',this is a superb collection highlighting some fantastic indiviidual musicians and backing harmonies that the Eagles would have been proud of.Best tracks the afore mentioned 'Love song..,the excellent instrumental 'Waterhole',catchy 'Freeborn Man' and the rockin 'Stick Around For Rock N Roll'.However as every southern rock fan knows their best is the epic 'Green Grass & High Tides Forever',which i believe is even better than 'Freebird',nearly ten minutes of southern guitar frenzy,teasing and building to a stunning finale,live it sometimes stretched to 20 minutes
If you'vr never heard this band,try this disc,it will live with you forever.

I bought this to further complete my music collection - Renewing some original vinyl long since lost ... The long title track was/is just as fresh and dynamic as I remembered, but the rest is rather forgettable ... Worth it for the one masterpiece though - :)

Title track is up there with 'Freebird'!
This is stonkin' great value. The title track is up there with 'Freebird' and is worth the £2.99 alone - nearly 10 minutes of superb Southern rock at it's ultimate best. Read more

Only the title track is worth spending money on
As others have said, at its very low price this disc is worth buying for the title track. The rest of the music is pretty forgettable unless you're a diehard Outlaws fan.

Good guitar work but small on good song content
Yeah, well. I suppose at the price it's ok and maybe worth it for the outstanding title track, but - apart from only two more numbers - this sounds to me like a country band who... Read more

country rock
This is the first cd of country rock that I've tried, I find the Outlaws to be good exponents of that type of music
