The Enchanting La Etting!
Allen Bardin | Columbia, SC United States | 11/17/2000
(4 out of 5 stars)
"Although this disc doesn't focus on Ruthie's earlier successes ( like "Ten Cents A Dance" or "Love Me Or Leave Me"), there are some rare treats from the marcelled diva. Campy tunes like "It's Swell of You" & "Were Your Ears Burning, Baby" get the usual crystalline Etting treatment, with hints of the Swing-era bounce coming in towards the second choruses. Gone is her little-girl sound of the 20s, and her mature torch-warbling, though by then going out of style, is at peak performance. Until someone issues a chronological Etting set, you can't go wrong with Take Two's usual pristine transfers on this release."
