4.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent introduction to Lesley Gore's 60s material.,
By
This review is from: Best of (Audio CD)
"Best of Lesley Gore" is an excellent introduction to the mid-sixties teen queen, as it contains several of her rhythmic, Quincy Jones hits that fall squarely into the girl group sound ("It's My Party," "Look of Love," "That's the Way Boys Are"),alongside some less well known but sought after tracks showing her range and versatility (the Bacharach-influenced "All of My Life," Brit-pop "Off and Running" and psychedelic riff, "Magic Colors"). A real bonus is Lesley's proto-feminist anthem, "You Don't Own Me," still unmatched for its impassioned vocals full of rage and its stark arrangements. If you want to check Lesley Gore out, this is a good place to start...You'll move on to the hard stuff soon after!
3.0 out of 5 stars
The Best Of ............... Not really,
This review is from: Best of (Audio CD)
The Best Of.........not really Lesley Gore had only 4 Top Ten Hit's in the USA and only two of them appear here
It's My Party #1 5/63 and You Don't Own Me #2 12/63 her other two Top Ten hit's are missing from here. Judy's Turn To Cry #5 July 7/63 and She's A Fool also #5 9/63 so If there are only going to be 11 tracks on this CD take off Brink Of Disaster her last hit #82 10/67 and All of my Life #71 3/65. Magic Colors, Off and Running, What am I gonna do with you didn't even chart so no this sould NOT be called The Best of.......Lesley Gore

Need more songs,

This review is from: Best of (Audio Cassette)
The Best of Lesley Gore was released on April 8, 1998. There are only eight songs to this cassette and though I did not have a stopwatch on me, The Best of Lesley Gore is no longer than about twenty minutes. All of the songs, with the exception of one, charted. This cassette is no more than a cliff note version of her music career. Still this is a good cassette to listen to. In the end, The Best of Lesley Gore gets a B- for lack of songs on it.
