Hits is a budget-priced collection of Bob Wills' Mercury recordings, including several of his standards ("Bubbles in My Beer," "Faded Love") and a handful of tracks previously unavailable on an American CD ("Thorn in My Heart," "Ida Red," "Little Cowboy Lullaby," "Cotton Patch Blues"). Since it features such an uneven selection, Hits doesn't really live up to its billing, yet it's still a fine mid-priced sampler, designed for casual fans.
