Product Description
This is Blake's first greatest hits package. It features 14 of his biggest hits and his current single 'Who Are You When I'm Not Looking.' In 2001, Blake made his debut with the single 'Austin.' Released as the lead-off single from his self-titled debut album, 'Austin' went on to peak at #60 at Country radio in Canada. Shelton followed his debut with 2003's 'The Dreamer' (his first for Warner Bros. proper) and 2004's 'Blake Shelton's Barn & Grill,' where his first single 'Some Beach' reached #1 on the Country charts, and the following single 'Nobody But Me' peaked at #7. Shelton followed his third album with, 'Pure BS,' and a fifth album, 'Startin' Fires,' whose debut single 'She Wouldn't Be Gone' peaked at #7 at Country radio. 'Hillbilly Bone,' from Shelton's sixth studio album, and his first SIX PAK of the same name was the fastest rising single of his career and peaked in the Top 10 at Country radio.
The country star continues to prove to be one of the industry's hottest vocalists as he reigns in on a successful year with career highlights that include the release of his two SIX PAK albums - 'Hillbilly Bone' and his most recent release, 'All About Tonight,' four CMA award nominations - including one for Male Vocalist of the Year, an ACM and a CMT award win garnered two No. 1 hits with his album's title-tracks, 'Hillbilly Bone' (featuring long-time friend, Trace Adkins) and 'All About Tonight' and he recently received an invitation to join as the newest member of the Grand Ole Opry. Shelton is the only solo male country artist - one of three artists overall - to log more than one chart-topper so far this year on Billboard's Hot Country Songs. Shelton has seven No. 1 hits which include his back-to-back multi-week No. 1 singles 'She Wouldn't Be Gone' and 'Home,' his five-week No. 1 debut single, 'Austin' and two additional multi-week No. 1 hits with 'The Baby' and 'Some Beach.' Blake Shelton has not had a single peak outside the Top Ten since 2007.

By Austin Dalyai
There has historically been many a reason to steer clear og "Best Of" and "Greatest Hits" albums because you simply cant please everyone. But this one was put together very well. While it might over look a few songs that Blake or his fans would call essential, it does what it's supposed to do. It incluedes his very biggest hits, and the songs that show people what he's all about. It also helps to show that changes and growth he's gone through as an artist. For a single disc collection, this could not have been any better. Mostly chronological in it's order, you can roll right along with his career up to this point and remember where you were, or how you felt when you first heard each of these songs.Overall, a very solid effort by Blake's record company to capture who he is, and what he does.

By Meredith Klein
Since Blake Shelton has appeared on the Voice, his popularity has skyrocketed. However, there are those who remember/know him from the country circuit he has been a part of for quite sometime. Blake has a great passion for singing and it shows through in most of his songs. This album includes many of the songs that I was introduced to Blake on including: Austin, Ol' Red, Nobody But Me, and The More I Drink. For someone who is looking for a sampling of what Blake does, this is it! He is a phenomenal performer and if you ever get the chance to see him live, don't miss it. You will not regret it.

By heyharvey
While there are some older Blake Shelton songs I was unfamiliar with - and still can't quite appreciate - the majority of the CD is fantastic. "Goodbye Time" is one of the best country songs ever produced, and there is plenty of Sheltonesque fun such as "Some Beach" and "Hillbilly Bone." Highly recommend for any casual or longtime fan!
