25 Years

by The Country Gentlemen

Overview

25 Years was released in 1982, when the Country Gentlemen were celebrating their 25th anniversary. The compilation covers the group's recordings for Rebel Records, which began in the mid-'60s. Over the course of 25 Years, various incarnations of the Country Gentlemen are displayed. Each one has its own merits, but the classic lineup of Eddie Adcock, John Duffey, Tom Gray, and Charlie Waller does stand out in particular. Though the other incarnations aren't quite as accomplished as this lineup, the compilation nevertheless remains an excellent purchase and introduction, since it gives a fine overview of the group's career. ~ Thom Owens
