What would you recommend for a country music collection?

Question

I'm buying a cd online for a friend who has a passing interest in the classic country music songs. She's isn't a fanatic, but she enjoys the oldies and pop tunes like 'Stand by your man'. If people could help me pick out a cd that has nothing but those classic songs, I'd appreciate it very much.

Thanks all!

Answer 1

The one Tex recommended is good. Also try the Time-Life site, they have lots of compilation CD's. www.timelifemusic.com

Answer 2

I would look for a country classics greatest hits cd with a variety of country entertainers. Maybe a three disc set so she has a good selection to listen to.
