5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous, January 7, 2004
By 
tom (Toronto, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Classic Lena Horne (Audio CD)
You can't go wrong with this 14 track collection including Lena's signature "Stormy Weather" and her stunning takes on "I'd Do Anything", "Get Out of Town" and "Someone To Watch Over Me". Her voice is at its peak here and the arrangements only enhance her vocals. It's a privilege to listen to this great vocalist.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great mastering, but too brief., January 27, 2007
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Classic Lena Horne (Audio CD)
This disc is mastered better than RCA's earlier disc, 'Stormy Weather: The Legendary Lena 1941-1958.' But, it has just 14 songs. Since it extends all the way to 1962 - and fully half of the tracks are from the 1960's - it glosses over Lena's rich, jazzy, pre-60's recordings. And, like the 'The Legendary Lena,' this disc consists of strictly RCA material, ignoring her work in the movies and for other labels. On the plus side, it does include Lena's only significant chart hit ('Love Me Or Leave Me') - which 'The Legendary Lena' does not.

Bottom line - Lena need to be honored with a multi-disc set covering her whole career for multiple labels. All the same, 'The Classic Lena Horne' is a great listen - it's just not the ideal retrospective.

when you're talking about Lensa Horne, how can you possibly have something bad to say???!!! The only thing you could possibly not like is the fact it doesn't more songs, or your favorite Lena song...
