Best-Selling CDs

Four noteworthy new releases and reissues reviewed by Arsenio Orteza

The Complete Hits | The Browns

Style: Twenty-one "Nashville Sound" hits by the Arkansas siblings Bonnie, Maxine, and Jim Ed Brown, circa 1956-1967.

Worldview: That, preserved in the Browns' dulcet tones, the church bells, scarlet ribbons, singing bluebirds, dreamt-on pillows, and old lamplighters of these songs take on archetypal status.

Overall quality: Like "The Three Bells (Les Trios Cloches)," the song for which the Browns became best known, this music gives off an otherworldly glow evocative more of the timelessness of The Twilight Zone (or of the Fleetwoods gone Nashville) than of nostalgia.
