Lyrics from The Very Best of Neal McCoy
All Music Guide Review
Rhino's 2008 The Very Best of Neal McCoy is a generous, nearly complete collection of Neal McCoy's hit singles, weighing in at 20 tracks and hitting every album he released between 1990 and 2005. Not all of his charting singles are here -- some of his earliest singles that just scraped the country charts, such as "If I Built You a Fire" and "This Time I Hurt Her More (Than She Loves Me)," are absent, as are some turn of the millennium singles that didn't go too far on the charts -- but all the biggest hits are here, including the number one country singles "No Doubt About It" and "Wink," plus the Top Tens "The City Put the Country Back in Me," "They're Playin' Our Song," "Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye," "You Gotta Love That," and "The Shake" (and the new single, "Rednecktified," which somehow sounds older than a lot of other tunes here) making this the ideal overview and introduction to McCoy's exceedingly amiable contemporary Texas country. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

His signature blend of honky tonk, heartbreak and in-concert hi-jinks has earned him a loyal following, and Rhino's new compilation collects the best from the six albums released during his Atlantic years plus subsequent albums on Giant and 903.
