Details Lead Performance: Alan Jackson; Genres: Country, Reissues

Jackson has established himself as one of country's savviest New Traditionalists, largely through a fresh approach to neo-honky-tonk, hook-laden songs, and a sly, deep-in-the-pocket sense of humor. This solid 20-song compilation from his four albums includes two new songs, ''Tall, Tall Trees'' and ''I'll Try,'' neither of which matches his best efforts.
