5 out of 5 stars You had better get it! Possibly the greatest, certainly the most underrated soulman of them all ........2007-07-08

I got a Joe Tex greatest hits in 1966 and loved it and continually played it till the cd age. This cd has all the tracks from my vinyl album bar one - 'you had better get it'. They're all on '25 greatest hits'.
Apparently Joe had 33 hits - I guess that must be mostly from the R'n'B charts but he had some US top ten hits.
I remember him getting some airplay for 'Show me' and 'sweet woman like you' but don't recall him troubling the UK charts until the 70s with maybe his worst song - the aforementioned 'ain't gonna bop no more...'
Whatever, he doesn't have any huge hits that everyone knows and loves like Percy Sledge or Otis Redding, but he has tracks of that calibre - 'the Love you save' is easily as good as ' Try a little tenderness','I've been loving you too long' or 'When a man loves a woman'.
And he has more good ones. I find that I never listen to more than 6 tracks each from Otis or Percy Sledge, but I can listen to nearly all of this over and over, and then there's 'Live and lively' another live album which has more essential stuff not featured here.
Joe's voice doesn't seem to have the higher register that we've come to expect soul stars to show their chops by soaring into now and again. Instead he has an astonishing bass register that he soars down into to show off sometimes. Indeed, many of his self-penned songs seem designed to show off his bass register, most notably the gorgeous ' the Love You Save '. There's also an oft-noted country influence in his songwriting; in fact he recorded an album of country covers 'Soul Country'.
His band are wonderful throughout - that Stax/Atlantic sound that no-one seems to be able to get these days; Joss Stone seems to be trying for it sometimes, and she does get a pretty decent approximation to 70s era Gladys Knight, but she never quite gets this. Special mentions are due to the piano player Bobby Woods (session man- the only one credited) and especially to guitar player Lee Royal Hadley, very much in the Steve Cropper mould, the type of guitar playing Jimi Hendrix cut his teeth on.
This cd has the later hits 'gotcha' and 'you said a bad word' which I was unaware of previously but seem to have attracted a lot of attention. My personal choice for a Joe Tex compilation would be the 'Skinny Legs and all' collection, for the inclusion of some very early gems like 'Meet me in Church', 'Sweetest woman in the world' and 'watch the one that brings the bad news'(on this one he sounds too much like early Taj Mahal for coincidence, but I don't know who influenced who - Joe's bluesiest number). But most people these days seem to want the later hits, so '25 greatest hits' is the one for them.
If you like this you'll also find 'Live and lively' indispensible, and you'll have to get 'Skinny legs and all' for those tracks I mentioned. You had better get it!

5 out of 5 stars GREATEST FROM THE GREATEST !!.......2006-08-16

This basically covers all the main trademark hits of the late great Joe Tex, that anyone would ever need, but i wish it would have added his pretty ballads of his B sides of "A Mothers Prayer" and "Baby It's Rainin'". But all n' all, this a great must have collection. Go buy yours today !!

4 out of 5 stars There's more to Joe Tex than "I Gotcha.".......2005-11-14

If you're not "into" soul music, you may know Joe Tex only from his mainstream hit "I Gotcha," and the follow-up, "You Said a Bad Word." Both of these are downright raunchy numbers that sounds like anthems for sexual predators. However, if you listen to this CD, you'll see that these are in sharp contrast to much of Joe Tex's material. Although some of the other songs, such as "Skinny Legs and All," are humorous, even these aren't raunchy to the same extent. More importantly, most of the songs deal with very serious subjects and show a strong sensitivity to real-life tragedy. These songs are also interesting musically because although they fall firmly into the genre of soul, there's a strong overtone of country in the mix. Joe Tex was actually from Texas, and pays tribute to that state in his chosen stage name. Give this a listen and you'll see that there's much more to Joe Tex than adolescent raunchiness.

5 out of 5 stars Very Soulful&Gritty.......2000-04-26

This is some Classic Soul music.Skinny Legs&All is the jam.You Feel The Fun&Grooves here.Joe Tex is A Soul Singer in the Realist FOrm.A must have.

Amazon.com

This greatest-hits collection chronicles a dozen years in the career of the late country-soul singer. Tex, who died in 1982 at the age of 47, stepped out of the spotlight near the peak of his popularity after joining the Nation of Islam. As country as any of his soul-singing peers, Tex was master of the playful, down-home raps, best exemplified by "Skinny Legs and All." Rhino's 16-track assortment shows him in a most flattering light. --Steven Stolder

5 out of 5 stars It holds up well..........2003-07-22

Yes, buy it. For the most part the songs, the guitar and horn work, and recording quality hold up and are still as catchy and humorous today as you remember them from when they were recorded. Your kids might even like some of the songs or at least listen with you once. Joe Tex was not one to fluff up his recording sessions with unnecessary violins and other elaborate orchestration; all the cuts have the immediacy of a night club performance. The album has quite a bit going for it besides just nostalgia value: the production quality of this CD seems to be a cut above many historical collections like this... kudos to Rhino on this one. Note: the lyrics are intended to be humorous, human, and down-to-earth (and they are), but some may be offended by the characterizations of women according to their physical appearance as in "Skinny Legs" and "Big Fat Woman."

5 out of 5 stars Gym floors were shakin' all over this land.......2001-02-08

Gym floors WERE shakin' whenever the local AM disc jockey was cool enough to play Joe Tex's latest sermon. Yes brethren, I said sermon. The man was a secular preacher, marriage counseler, and hmmm? what else? oh yeah... a whole bunch of fun too! Wallflowers of both sexes left the walls and danced to 'Show Me','Skinny Legs And All',and ' One Monkey Don't Stop No Show".Joe Tex preached the gospel of the wallflower.The man (kid with pimples) with the raggeddy clothes, the woman (girl with braces) with the skinny legs. He had a great big heart that encouraged everybody to take part and have fun. Everybody. This collection does a good service to both old fans of Joe and newcomers alike. I prefer the sixties stuff myself, but I can still remember driving in my first car in 1972 and hearing "I Gotcha" coming out of the AM speakers. Got me!

5 out of 5 stars Classic Soul.......2000-04-09

Joe Tex has it all here.Powerful Voice,a Strong sense of Humor&Jams such as Skinny Legs&all,One Monkey Don't Stop No Show.this is Great Soul Music.a Must.

5 out of 5 stars Very Cool CD.......1999-08-11

I bought this CD because of "I Gotcha". I was delighted to find that the rest of the songs were just as good. What a great price for the CD!

5 out of 5 stars One Of My Favorite R&B Albums!.......1999-06-12

A classic example of American R&B; one of my most-played albums. Tex had soul, humor, and a good voice. The album has a nice mix of fast and slow, dance and listen, warmth and hardness. Favorite song: Sweet Little Woman Like You.

5 out of 5 stars LITTLE JOE AT HIS VERY BEST.......2004-06-03

This is the truly great work of La Familia because it features some of the best sound arrangements produced by the group. It also features the splendid voices of Little Joe and Johnny which we all miss. This was the sound that made people dance and get truly involved with the music; something that can't be done nowdays with keyboards and a six piece band. If you want the best from Little Joe,try this CD on for size. It's like a good beer------YOU CAN'T PUT IT DOWN-----------------------------JULIAN A. ORTA SR.

The sounds of Joe King haven't aged as well as other 1980s novelty outfits, but this hard-to-find disc is a great find for Texas ex-pats and other JK fans. Best bits: 'Tears Been A Fallin" and "Let's Go."

5 out of 5 stars Welcome to the Tex-Mex Party!.......1999-03-25

Let this CD rip and fire up the blender! Joe "King" and "party in Texas" are spoken in the same breath. Great music from beginning to end! Sincere ballads like "Tears" to the upbeat "Party Weekend", this effort has it all!

5 out of 5 stars Are you kidding? This is THE KING of Tex Mex Party Rock!.......1998-10-17

Joe King still plays around Austin and Texas and this is the best of all his uptempo, irresistible songs! A must have for those who want to have a PARTY PARTY WEEKEND. His band is the B-52s of Texas, for sure!

    5 out of 5 stars Joe The KING.......2007-04-12

    This album was made before Joe formed the Crowns, his backing band for quite few albums after this one. It was recorded with the then cream of San Antonio "West Side" musicians including the great Rocky Morales on sax. I bought this on album when it was first released and was overjoyed to find it on CD. There's no "Extras" on this which is disappointing but it still rates 5 stars for it's rockin' good-time, bluesy, tex-mex ragged but right music. This is the stuff for parties and drinking. I cannot say that this is a technically great album or has any social or philasophical merit, it's just an album I truly LOVE. Visit Joe's website and find out more about him.

      Customer Reviews:

      4 out of 5 stars Excellent Remaster but MONO!.......2006-07-12

      It is great to have available again these two fine albums by Joe Tex. Nice horn arrangements and wonderful performances by all. The only problem is that all selections are MONAURAL when I know for a fact that they were originally released in STEREO. That is the reason I gave this cd only 4 stars.
