It's been a long time since I've listened to Helen Reddy, and I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed her music. This CD has some of her nicest work - takes me back to happy memories... Now I've got to look into what songs of hers I don't have and order a different CD.

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST OF HELEN REDDY is a fine collection of songs by Helen Reddy, mostly the hits but a few lesser known ones too. Of those latter songs, I was particularly glad to get "This Masquerade." If you've never heard Reddy, she is a singer from Australia who has a wonderful voice and style, which to me is reminiscent of Tin Pan Alley singers from earlier decades. She was at her most popular in the 1970s, and every song on this CD is from the 70s. Sound quality is very good. At 14 songs this is only fairly generous, and the earlier version of "I Am Woman" is interesting but largely pointless having on here since it's markedly inferior to the later version that was the hit, and which is also on here. A more generous collection that also includes the big hit singles, but has 8 more songs than this one, although both are supposed to be remastered, is the more recent compilation The Woman I Am: The Definitive Collection.
