5.0 out of 5 stars Has the voice and the passion
Shirley Bassey may just be one of the greatest female pop singers of all time. Her power and range are superb and her interpretation is always fresh and passionate. This album is worth the money!

3.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful but flawed
First the good news. This album brings together many of the most powerful and enchanting performances by Shirley Bassey and, with forty songs, is excellent value for the money.

This review is from: 40 Great Songs (Audio CD)
First the good news. This album brings together many of the most powerful and enchanting performances by Shirley Bassey and, with forty songs, is excellent value for the money. Tracks like "Fly me to the Moon" show off the richness and range of Bassey's voice with wonderful clarity and expansiveness. But, disappointingly, a significant number of the recordings on this CD suffer from very poor sound quality, with Bassey's voice sounding harsh and constricted or distorted on high notes and at high volume. A few tracks are so flawed that tin can and string technology might have been used for the transfer to CD. Hopefully, if this is a problem with the digital source material, the newer "remix" CDs will be much better. So, high marks for track selection and value, but points off for sound quality.
