Third Volume In The Curb Series Aug 17, 2007
Please refer to my review of Volume 1 in this Curb series for an overall synopsis. Like the other two volumes this one ranges wide in presenting another eleven of his 90 hit Country hit singles, from 1961's Under The Influence Of Love [# 2 in September] to 1971's Rollin' In My Sweet Baby's Arms [# 2 that October].
More of his 21 # 1 hits are here as well, including the two that tied for second spot on his list of all-time greatest hits. His best, of course, was Love's Gonna Live Here which stayed at the top slot for sixteen weeks in 1963 [see Volume 2], but both My Heart Skips A Beat [1964 and also a # 94 Billboard Hot 100 crossover] and Waitin' In Your Welfare Line [1966 and a # 56 Hot 100 crossover] did alright as well, each spending seven weeks at # 1.
Other # 1 hits are: I Don't Care (Just As Long As You Love Me) - six weeks in 1964 and a # 86 Hot 100; Only You (Can Break My Heart) - one week in 1965 and a # 120 Hot 100 "bubble under"; Buckaroo - two weeks in 1965 and a # 60 Hot 100 crossover; and Sam's Place - three weeks in 1967 and a # 92 H100. The others - 1967's It Takes People Like You (To Make People Like Me), Sweet Rosie Jones from 1968, and I've Got You On My Mind Again from late 1968, all were Top 5, going to # 2 in the first two cases and # 5 in the last.
Certainly, when they first came out, these were welcomed by all fans of Buck Owens, but since then there have been many more multi-track compilations with better liner notes [one page here] and just as good as or better sound quality which you can purchase for less than the price of these three volumes combined.
 Super Classics. Apr 25, 2006
True, hard-core Western Country! Thanks Buck Owens for years of super music that stayed true to the sound. Live on. Live well. Be happy. Listen to Buck.

Buck Owens is cool Nov 08, 2005
Buck Owens is one cool cat. His Bakersfield sound is classic and shines through on this volume, most volumes consist of great classics if we are talking about Buck. I have all three from the series. You need to have all three to capture the magical sound. I love from this set "My Heart Skips a Beat," and "Waitin in Your Welfare Line." Most of this album is pretty dang good and pure toe-tapping fun. I like Buck Owens because it's simple straight forward music, music that captures the joys of love and pain of love lost. "Sam's Place" is wicked cool. I wouldn't mind going there, the song will have you dancing around, you might throw a bottle or two. If you are a poser or metro pass this album up and go for Tim McGrit or something.

My Heart Skips A Beat Jun 12, 2001
Oddly enough, the third installment of Buck Owens ALL TIME GREATEST HITS is the most solid of the series. None of the occasional Las Vegas glitz found here and there on the first two records is in evidence here.The inclusion of "Buckaroo" is a nice touch; be sure to check out INSTRUMENTAL HITS OF BUCK OWENS AND HIS BUCKAROOS for more of their classic guitar pieces. Oh-so-hip America, which turned up it's nose at HEE HAW, never knew what it was missing. Middle America treated itself to some of the best music around every week, while the rest of us waitied for the next Archies single. Buck Owens gave it away on TV all thsoe years, and we looked the other way.
