AMG Review of Best of Carl Smith

Stephen Thomas Erlewine
All Music Guide

Best of Carl Smith is a 12-track budget-priced collection that features some of his biggest late-'70s hits, including "Roly Poly," "If You Don't, Somebody Else Will," "A Way with Words," "Show Me a Brick Wall," "This Kinda Love Ain't Meant for Sunday School," "The Way I Lose My Mind," and "This Lady Loving Me." Although this isn't a bad budget-priced disc, there are far better collections available, offering more songs and better sound for not much more money.
