Review

Although casual followers of Texas music will always identify Jerry Jeff as the author of "Mr. Bojangles," his contributions to popular music in the '60s and '70s are greater than this 10-song compilation lets on. Though many of his best-known recordings are here, many of his finest songs are missing, and those interested in how Walker achieved his legendary status are advised to seek out 1969's Driftin' Way of Life (his single best album) and the outlaw classic ¡Viva Terlingua! Still, listeners needing only a single-disc introduction to Walker will find in this overview a taste of his unpretentious poetic sensibility and restrained, but endearing singing style. --Roy Kasten
