City boy-acceptable Aug 31, 2009
I'm not a country person at all. I listen to hard rock most of the time but MG's songs really grab me. If you're looking for a change of pace, this is good stuff. Not too cheesy or cliched. Just good, sincere tunes with enough edge to keep a rocker interested. Give it a try.
 Montgomery Gentry something to be proud of Dec 20, 2008
I bought Montgomery Gentry greatest hits after being told about them from friends in USA and hearing a couple of tracks
This CD was every bit as good as I'd hoped it would be and now a valued item of my collection
Stuck in my CD player Jan 17, 2008
Since I bought this album a month or two ago it has spent very little time outside the CD player in my truck.
Montgomery has a vast body of work but this album did a great job bringing together the songs that really strike a chord with you. I have thoroughly enjoyed it. The only thing I don't like is their version of "Merry Christmas From the Family." They should have let Robert Earl Keen Jr. keep that one.
Overall, a very enjoyable album.
Great Hits By A Great Duo Sep 07, 2007
Montgomery Gentry is a pairing that is greater than its individual parts. Eddie Montgomery's rough hewn baritone, for instance, lacks range, yet works well on spoken word verses and effectively counters Troy Gentry's bombastic, elastic tenor.
For the past seven years, Montgomery Gentry has been a country radio staple, but their biggest hits have tended to be hard hitting, country rock stompers like "Hillbilly Shoes," "She Couldn't Change Me," "Hell Yeah," and "Gone." This tendancy is reflected on this "best of", as only a few ballads are included in this thirteen-track lineup (omitted underacheiving slowpoke singles like "Self Made Man," "You Do Your Thing" and the gritty "Cold One Comin' On" would have provided some much appreciated balance).
For the fans who already own their previous albums, there's still plenty to entice here, however. A new track "She Don't Tell Me To" is currently zipping up the charts, while the heartwrenching "Didn't I" from the We Were Soldiers soundtrack finally appears on a Montgomery Gentry album, as does the humorous 2001 holiday single "Merry Christmas From The Family" which concludes this set.
Overall, Something To Be Proud Of is an energetic, engaging collection of hits. Its contents were custom made for blasting in the car.

Didn't I May 07, 2007
this is a great album, i bought it mainly for the song Didn't I as it is a song about returned soldiers and how they were treated and about their feelings upon their return home from war. I class it as a soldiers ballad. The rest of the album is also great. Well worth a listen.
