Great recording by a very cute little Shirley

"This is a collection of most of Shirley's songs from the first half of her career... and it goes beyond the Good Ship Lollipop. The recording is old, which you can tell from the sound - there is very light static, but the music is still clear and much better than I was expecting. It includes songs from Curly Top, Captain January, and the two Old South movies which are not the ones she is remembered for - but they are among my favourites personally. I love "Love's Young Dream" and "Believe Me"... It also has her three performances with Jack Haley and Alice Faye from "Poor Little Rich Girl", which are other favourites of mine...If you like Shirley and want some of her music, this is a great CD to start with. I recommend it highly."
One of the best Shirley Temple CDs

""America's Sweetheart" has a total of 51 songs on only two CDs! 19 of which are NOT contained in the 3 CD box set, "Stand Up and Cheer" (which has 60 songs)...Since no other Shirley Temple CD has as many different songs as these two sets, either "America's Sweetheart" or "Stand Up and Cheer" would be a great place to start...Tracks on "America's Sweetheart" that are NOT on "Stand Up and Cheer" Volume 1: 2, 5, 9, 13, 17, 19, 23, 24, 25Volume 2: 5, 11, 12, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26"
