CD ReviewsHalf 'n' half Bill | Seattle, Washington United States | 04/20/2003 (2 out of 5 stars) "Polly Bergen's output is starting to come out on CD, thanks to the Collectables label. She is an exceptional song stylist, so I considered each new CD released an automatic buy -- until now.I like the fact that companies like Collectables are squeezing two albums onto one CD, but in cases like this, it's a mistake. The first half, the Polly and Her Pop album, sounds entirely -- and I do mean entirely -- different from the second half. This album is almost unlistenable, in my book. It's badly arranged pseudo-country and should have been left in the vaults. As it is, Bergen's father is really the main vocalist on these songs and she's essentially a background vocal, and that's not a recommendation. The second half is much like the Polly Bergen you'll hear in the other two-album CD sets by Collectables, and that means she's great. But it's not enough. I'd recommend buying the other two Collectables sets and skipping this one."
