Music reviews of 34 Number Ones
Music Review: Definitive collection of the Arista years, 1990 to 2010
Rating: 5 Stars
Alan Jackson will ultimately go down in country music history primarily for the music he made for Arista records, although we hope that he still has some great music to come, whichever label he signs for. The singles from his last Arista album of original recordings, the excellent Freight train, didn't do as well as those from his earlier albums. Initially, I wondered if American country radio stations were losing interest, but maybe Arista were switching their focus to younger artists. This compilation therefore becomes the last official compilation of Alan's Arista music. No doubt there will others in the years to come, but they will just recycle the material already released, together with whatever unreleased material lies in the Arista vaults.
The title implies that 34 of these 37 tracks were number one hits, but they weren't all number one of the American Billboard country charts. Most of the others came close, so maybe they were number ones on some other chart such as Cashbox (I don`t have access to Cashbox charts, so cannot check). Here in the real world (the title track of his first Arista album), didn't make number one on Billboard but was number one on the Canadian country chart, but all of Alan's other Canadian number ones were also number one on Billboard. Still, whether the title is accurate or not, it is fair to say that every track here is excellent.
As others have pointed out, some of Alan's hits that didn't make this compilation are also of a high quality. It would have been easy for Arista to compile a triple CD, but they probably struck the right balance in limiting this compilation to a double CD. Still, the absence of tracks such as Murder on Music Row (with George Strait), When somebody loves you (a top five country hit), I'll go on loving you (a top three country hit), Mercury blues (a number two country hit), Everything I love, Pop a top and others shows that Alan had plenty of great hits besides what you'll find here.
The three tracks not claimed as number ones ironically include one track that made it to number one on Billboard - As she's walking away, in which Alan joins the Zac Brown band. Ring of fire, a mellow cover of the old Johnny Cash classic, was a minor country hit when released as a single. The other new track, Look at me, may or may not have been released as a single, but it's a fine song.
Whether or not there are 35 number one hits here doesn't matter; Alan had almost 50 top ten hits on the Billboard country charts, every one a gem, and some of those that didn't make the top ten (especially Murder on Music Row) are also regarded by many fans as classics. This collection provides a fitting tribute to Alan's 21 years of great music with Arista, whether this is your first Alan Jackson album or whether (like me) you have most of the tracks already.
