5 out of 5 stars Mother in law singing away.......2007-07-03

I made a lot of bonus points with my new mother-in law.
It has brought back a lot of memories for her. Great CD.

Thanks,

Scott

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Early Brenda Lee.......2007-04-20

I reccommend this product to anyone who was looking for themselves in the late 60's and early 70's. We were all looking for the fairy tale world and perfect love. It's a wonderful reminder.

4 out of 5 stars Music from my Youth.......2007-01-15

It`s always nice to listen to good music connected to good memories.
Brenda Lee has this powerful, and soft voice that expresses the lyrics so brilliant!

5 out of 5 stars There's no one like Brenda Lee.......2006-01-21

This CD represents Brenda Lee at the peak of her musical powers,1959-63. Her sweet, bluesy southern voice is truly unique.I feel guilty making this comparison but she, in my opinion,is the female " Elvis" when it comes to interpreting a song.The mark of a true artist is the ability to excel beyond musical catagory. You can't peg her simply in one of these buckets( country,blues, gospel,R&B,rock ). She incorporates elements of all these influences but mixes them up in a musical stew that is truly unique. What makes the CD a classic is a "perfect musical storm". First the artist, then the material, musicians and production values.
I discussed the artist, now lets explore briefly the other success factors.
1.Writers like Ronnie Self,Jerry Reed, Mel Tillis and( who would of thought) Jackie DeShannon.
2. A pure production genius /legend, Owen Bradley
3. The early sixties Nashville studio and the studio musicians to numberous to mention. This assemblage of talent during this period has never been replicated in Nashville. Again, we tend to bucket artists. in this case, as if musicians residing in Nashville are only capable of playing C&W. Nonsense, these musicians, like any true great, were more then capable of playing any musical genre.
Sadly, Brenda never captured the magic on a consistent basis following this period. There's a wealth of reasons why but this isn't the time or place. It's just important to reinforce Brenda Lee and the recordings contained on this CD are classic and timeless.That is the key element that defines any great art that it transends time. Thank you Brenda.

5 out of 5 stars Rockabilly at its Best!.......2005-09-08

Brenda Lee shines like no other in this collection of hits....Careful selection and timeless melodies have proven a staying power for Brenda. Her songs ring as clear as they did in the 60's...If you like Brenda Lee, you'll love this collection!

5 out of 5 stars AWESOME!!!.......2006-01-05

Breanda Lee is truly one of a kind, one of the great female vocalists of our time, influencing many female vocalists of today.
Great many rarities include "My Whole World is Falling Down" and "Speak to Me Pretty"
wonderful cd, grab it if you can find it, a true gem! :)

5 out of 5 stars Good introduction to Brenda's music.......2005-02-21

Brenda Lee began her career, aged just eleven, in 1956, but did not have a British hit until 1960. In total, she had twenty-two UK hits between 1960 and 1965 but she had many more than that in America. Generally, the British public seem to prefer her up-tempo rockers while the American public seem to prefer her ballads. I am an exception to the general rule, being a Brit who likes her ballads best, although I enjoy her rocking songs too.

While many classic tracks are missing (for example, I want to be wanted, Emotions, Break it to me gently), this is only a budget-priced album and it does contain all of Brenda's British top ten hits. The biggest of these, Speak to me pretty, was never released as a single in America although I can't think why - it is a great song. Brenda's other UK top ten hits were Sweet nothings, Here comes that feeling, Rocking around the Christmas tree, All alone am I and As usual.

I'm sorry, Let's jump the broomstick, Dum dum, Fool number one, It started all over again and Sweet impossible you are the other British hits included here. Several others (including I wonder and Is it true, both of which made the UK top twenty) are omitted, but Jambalaya (the song that started Brenda's career in America) is here, along with several other great tracks.

For a comprehensive collection of Brenda's hits, you should go for the double CD, Anthology. However, because it is an American compilation, it omits Speak to me pretty. As an introduction to the music of the most important female rock'n'roll singer, this is excellent.
