CD Reviews

The Wonderful Pearl Bailey!!

09/05/2002

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a wonderful 2 cd collection of some of Pearl's finest recordings. There are even three songs from the very rare and out of print recording of "Arms and The Girl" on this recording. The only fault is that "Curtain Music" is not sung by Pearl on this recording but it is actually Nanette Fabray singing."

Perfect Cocktail Music!

(5 out of 5 stars)

"There's a reason this series is called "Cocktail Hour." It's up-beat, nostolgic and perfect for setting a social mood. The price is right too- 22 great tracks for $15- you can't go wrong. I plan on keeping this disc in mind for upcoming birthday gifts and stocking stuffers. I love that it leads off with "It Takes Two to Tango"- it immediatly lifts my spirits!"

Something Missing?

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I thought I was crazy until I read another review of this CD set who discovered that Track 3 of Disc 2 is actually sung by Nanette Fabray. What gives? The Pearlie Mae stuff is great, but I will hesitate before I buy another in this series if I'm likely to find surprises like that!!!"
