"The only thing better than singing is more singing. ~ Ella Fizgerald
Dreamy hardly describes this collection and romantic perfection barely unveils the heart beauty. Ella Fizgerald's music soothes the soul and presents a hope of happiness in many of her exquisite music moods.
Her creamy smooth vocals infuse this album with a decadent purity. Sweet, silky and soothing. That is what this album promises and "My Funny Valentine" is a little overwhelming with its message of unconditional love.
Ella's voice can draw out every romantic emotion you have ever felt and spins them into one sweet longing. She invites you into a beautiful world no one else will ever create. Her music feels like you have just received a warm hug and you are happy for the rest of the day.
"You are the promised kiss of springtime
That makes the lonely winter seem long.
You are the breathless hush of evening
That trembles on the brink of a lovely song.
You are the angel glow that lights a star,
The dearest things I know are what you are."

"This collection is awesome, is has the largest collection of Ella's songs I could find (after looking at Border's, Best Buy, f.y.e., etc.). Only leaving a couple of her big hits out; i.e. "Dream a Little Dream Of Me," which I found on iTunes! None the less, definetly a great gift for her fans or even those only just discovering jazz."
