BGO's 2013 three-fer contains You're My Best Friend, Harmony, and Country Boy, three albums Don Williams released in the mid-'70s. These were records released just as he was hitting his stride, so they're heavier on originals than what came later, and they're self-produced as well. His heavy hand confirms the auteurism behind his gentle sound: this wasn't a sensibility placed upon him, it was the sound he desired. With these three records, his hot streak of the '70s began in earnest. "You're My Best Friend," the title track from the 1975 album of the same name, became his second number one single, and 1976's Harmony became his first number one country album, setting into motion a run of Top 10 singles that lasted until the '90s. Other, bigger hits came later, but these three records remain his peak: they illustrate the sly versatility within his signature sound; they're robust with enduring originals, and they radiate a welcoming warmth that's hard to resist. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi Read Less
