Jerry Reed is the show!February 5, 2006 daniel b.(southern illinois) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
One of the most versatile performers in show business...Jerry seems just as comfortable on the silver screen as he has always been as a musician...This two album CD catches Jerry at one of the several high points in his career...from tender love ballads like "with you (missing you)"...to raucous, humor filled quick pickin' romps like "when you're hot you're hot"...he even shines in the bluesy instrumental "turned on"...it almost seems there is more than one Jerry Reed on this CD...all sides of Jerry are satisfying...and there's more to Jerry Reed than the big hits in this package...i've found plenty to love in the other tracks too...the sensitive regret of "i'll be around (in all the old places)...the soft and mellow beauty of Jerry's version of Gordon Lightfoot's "early morning rain"...and the casual humor of "another puff" never goes out of style...i predict that if you listen to this CD, that you'll want to hear more Jerry Reed...it's kind of hard to stop...once you've started.

This is a compilation of two classic Jerry Reed albums from his hitmaking day in the early 1970s -- "When You're Hot You're Hot" and "Ko-Ko-Joe," plus a hit single -- "Lord Mr. Ford" -- thrown in for good measure. WYHYH is marred by a lot of filler (did the world really need yet another version of Ruby, Don't Take Your Love to Town?), but Ko-Ko Joe is top flight.
For some reason, Amazon has been showing the wrong cover shot for a couple of years now. Don't worry -- this is not "Hot Movies"...
