    Sad country music from the seventies
  

*by P***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2010*

In country music terms, Mel Street was a slow developer, having his 1972 career breakthrough in his late thirties. Nevertheless, he had what appeared to be a successful career over the next six years before committing suicide on his 45th birthday. This compilation covers the period prior to his signing for Polydor in 1977, and includes all 14 hits from the period covered, together with six non-hits, at least three of which (Bad bad Leroy Brown, Am I that easy to forget, Don`t be angry) are covers of songs that you are probably familiar with via other versions. So it doesn't quite live up to the 20 greatest hits title, but I knew that when I ordered it. I also knew that Mel's Polydor music has been released separately on CD, so (as I write this) all of Mel Street`s important recordings are available on CD.Mel's biggest hits featured here are Borrowed angel, Lovin` on back streets and I met a friend of your today (all country top 10 hits), plus Walk softly on the bridges, Lovin` on borrowed time, You make me feel like a man, Forbidden angel, Smokey mountain memories and Even if I have to steal (all country top 20 hits). Most of Mel's songs are sad, slow ballads, but this is clearly what his fans expected from him. The mid-tempo Rodeo bum was only a minor country hit, not even making the top 50, but it's a good song that provides a nice change of tempo here.Although aware of Mel's music from way back, I'd never bought any of it and (horror of horrors) I'd forgotten about him altogether until I bought and listened to Lorrie Morgan's covers album A moment in time, which included covers of Mel's first two hits. Who says covers albums are a waste of time? Not me. I've always known that covers of old songs serve several purposes, one of which is to remind people of songs that might have slipped their mind, while exposing new generations to those songs.Mel's music will appeal to those country fans who appreciate sad country ballads from the seventies, complete with steel guitars. Those who only enjoy country music with pop and rock influences should stay well clear. This is for people who enjoy country music the way it used to be.

    Great songs too many forgotten
  

*by W***B on Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2019*

Mel Street was one of the best voices in country and was silenced way too soon.  Great songs that I wore out on vinyl, than God for CD.

So sorry Mel is gone but so has country music. I bought this on LP in '77 and still have it (in immaculate condition)however, it's nice to also have it on cd for the road.  Thank you.
