AMG Review of Super Hits of 1995

William Ruhlmann
All Music Guide

Actually, 1995 was not that good a year in country music for the Epic and Columbia labels of Sony Music, and some of the labels' biggest hits, such as Collin Raye's "One Boy, One Girl," are not included in this ten-song compilation. But some of the best Country hits of the year, among them Joe Diffie's "Pickup Man," James House's "This Is Me Missing You," Rick Trevino's "Bobbie Ann Mason," Mary-Chapin Carpenter's "House of Cards," and Ty Herndon's "What Mattered Most" are included, which makes this a reasonable sampler of the year, at least from one major label's perspective.
