This compilation of Gene Autry songs concentrates on the earlier part of his career, with the Jimmie Rodgers influence much in evidence; if one or two of the tracks sound 'antique', this is what they actually are and all the modern mastering wizardry in the world cannot alter the fact, but their undoubted charm remains. Specially worthy of note is the final song, the plaintive "At Mail Call Today", co-written with Fred Rose whilst Gene was undertaking his patriotic duty in the Air Force during World War II and which struck a chord with many sadly jilted serviceman.
