The Essential Bobby Bare by Bobby Bare - Uhune

ALBUM

Like all the other volumes of RCA's Essential series, The Essential Bobby Bare contains a cross-section of Bare's hits, lesser-known singles, rarities and album tracks. Though it is a useful and entertaining collection, Razor & Tie's compilation remains a more definitive retrospective.
