Review about Bobby Bare
The Streets Of Baltimore | Reviewer: Bobby Williams
------ About artist/band Bobby Bare
This is probably without a doubt his best work.I find it hard to believe it isn't available on CD. Although I've made copies from the L.P., it just isn't the same as a true digital copy without all the hiss etc.The L.P. tell a story of sorts
Bare's Picks | Reviewer: Bill Parker
------ About artist/band Bobby Bare
I have the Bobby Bare CD "The Columbia Years--Bare's Picks" and play it over and over. It never seems to get old. The varied selections, ranging from "New Cut Road" to "Numbers" are as fresh today as they were when they first came out. In between are some classic songs that bring back memories of my days as a young picker and a dreamer. I particularly like the song that begins with, "Me and Jimmy Rogers..." It's the quintessential day dreamer's song that immediately transports us back to our adolescent years, back to times when we were shooting imaginary hoops in imaginary games while imaginary crowds roared their approval. Bare's voice and presentation of the material create the perfect mood for these stories. What a great CD and what a great artist.

The Great Bobby Bare | Reviewer: James Bentley
------ About artist/band Bobby Bare
What more can be said of this Great Singer/songwriter. I have been a fan of Bare's music since 1964. I have an I-pod with 455 of his songs on it. I play it all the time. He is the best of the best. I too was a Hank Williams fan. But since discovering Bare, rarely listen to him. I wish Bare would make a great comeback, all his fans miss him. The wife and I have attended several of his concerts and will attend more. We go to his concerts if they are within a days drive of our house. Return home the following day. I met him in his wifes shop in Nashville during the 1991 Fan Fair. Bobby is simply THE GREATEST.
DEAR JOHN LETTER | Reviewer: Neil Nusbaum
------ About the song Dear John Letter performed by Bobby Bare
I believe all your posted lyrics are correct, BUT, you show only one LONG verse. I recall the same words being split up into two verses with Skeeter singing the chorus between verses, and again after the second verse.
Great Song | Reviewer: Mitch OBrien
------ About the song Winner performed by Bobby Bare
This song is a Bobby Bare Classic, if you have not heard it do yourself a favor and listen to it sometime. With lyrics like "you gotta speak loud when you challenge me son cause its hard for me to hear, with this twisted neck, these migrane pains and this big ol collerflower ear" you can't go wrong.

...losing you again... | Reviewer: d.bolton
------ About the song I'm So Afraid Of Losing You Again performed by Bobby Bare
One of Bobby Bare's most poignant songs that will stand the test of time for there will always be a woman wanting to take one more chance of loving the "lost flame" of her life.

The very first outlaw | Reviewer: Doclee
------ About artist/band Bobby Bare
Bobby Bare is the most underrated artist I have known. He is first to bring out a concept album. "Bird Named Yesterday" is undoubtedly the first although some regard his very successful album “Lullaby Legends & lies” as the first. He is also the first to gain control in the production of his music and should be regarded as the very first “outlaw” but was never being recognized as such.
Bare is very versatile and keep producing songs to meet the demand of the time. However, undoubtedly, his most appreciated talent is his ability to create the right emotion to a song. I personally still find his earlier RCA releases his best and have never got tired of listening to them. They are soulful country songs done with feelings and emotion and yet not overdone.
He has now just released a new CD "The Moon is Blue" produced by his son Bare Jr after so many years of absent. I hope he will gain the high popularity and respect he so deserve.
