CD Reviews

Buy the boxed set instead!
T. VANBRONKHORST | Seattle, WA USA | 09/30/2002
(3 out of 5 stars)

"The *music* contained on this dual-album CD unquestionably deserves 5 stars. However, anyone reading this far would probably like to know that ALL BUT TWO TRACKS of this CD are included on the *Proper Box* 4-CD set -- "Yes Indeed" -- which costs about the same price as this single CD. So unless you're a "completist" or want the original album covers (which are reproduced in tiny size), there is currently no reason to buy this CD. Get more Jo for your dough -- buy the boxed set instead!"
Beautiful music - but this CD is now superfluous
Peter Durward Harris | Leicester England | 10/02/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I bought this before the Yes indeed! boxed set was released. Every song on this wonderful twofer can be found in that set, although I haven't checked to see if they are all the same versions. A previous reviewer suggests two of these tracks are missing from the box, so unless he has made a mistake, they must be different versions of the same songs.Of the songs included here, romantic love songs make up most of this collection although there are a couple of western songs (Red river valley and Tumbling tumbleweeds) recorded with lush orchestral backings like the rest of this CD. All are sung superbly by Jo - but I can't ever remember hearing Jo do anything less. Smoke gets in your eyes and Some enchanted evening are just two of the famous songs here.This is a magnificent collection, but if you buy Yes indeed! (at only a slightly higher price), you won't need it."

"This is my favorite Jo Stafford CD! Every track here is a sophisticated number that showcases why she continues to impress listeners with her smooth voice. Her rendition of "Autumn in New York" makes me cry and feel sentimental every time, and I've never even set foot in New England!"
