Album Description 2010 two CD collection. Helen O'Connell had a long career from singing in groups in the `40s to being a solo artist and star of TV shows in the `50s This is the first in depth look at Helen's singles from 1951-57. Best known for her squeals on 'Green Eyes' and her versions of many of the standards of the era. This set also shows her versatility from singing novelties such as the great 'How Do You Like Your Eggs In the Morning' with Dean Martin to the soul searing 'Body And Soul'. Also included here are all her hits and duets with Gisele Mackenzie, Tennessee Ernie Ford, Skeets McDonald and the aforementioned Dean Martin plus collaborations with Frank DeVol and Les Baxter Orchestra. 60 tracks.

CD ReviewsA CAPITOL COLLECTION PLUS Barry McCanna | Normandy, France | 04/14/2010 (5 out of 5 stars) "Helen O'Connell came to public attention in early 1939, singing with Jimmy Dorsey's orchestra, at first solo but increasingly in tandem with Bob Eberle. She retired from the music scene in 1943, at the age of 23, but made a comeback in the early fifties and signed with the fledgling Capitol Records. All but the final six of this 60-song collection concentrate on her tenure with that label, and show what a versatile vocalist she was. In addition to the up-tempo numbers in which she excelled, the selection includes ballads, standards, torch songs, novelty numbers and Country & Western. There are thirteen duets, two with the honey-toned Dean Martin, two with Tennesseee Ernie Ford, one with her old sparring partner Bob Eberle, two with Skeets McDonald, and six with Gisele MacKenzie. Accompaniments were provided by Frank DeVol, Harold Mooney, Dick Stabile, Cliffie Stone, Les Baxter, Dave Cavanaugh, George Siravo, and Marion Evans. A great tribute to a great vocalist."
