CD ReviewsStrictly for fans of traditional country music Peter Durward Harris | Leicester England | 01/24/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "Melba's biggest country hit came in the seventies with No charge, which is a song I've never been particularly keen on. However, Melba recorded plenty of great music in the sixties and seventies including three duet albums with George Jones and one with Gene Pitney. The duets with George included several country hits of which the most famous is We must have been out of our minds. None of the duets are included here.
Very little of Melba's solo music has ever been released on CD but her duets have been, though most are now out of print. This budget release is a rare chance to hear Melba singing solo although I see that this, too, is now out of print. The songs here are mainly covers of songs made famous by others. It's not enough to satisfy Melba's fans but at least it serves as a reminder of just what a great singer Melba is. Her distinctive Alabama twang sets her versions of these old chestnuts apart from others." |
