This review is from: Great (Audio CD)

The popular American-born, Parisian cabaret sensation Josephine Baker is celebrated here with 14 classic recordings made in the early 1930's.

Josephine Baker is still regarded as one of the most talented and under-rated musical talents of the 20th century. She led a colorful life and was an active performer up until the time of her death.

The tracks on this CD from budget label Goldies, include "La Petite Tonkinoise", "You're the One I Care For", "My Fate is in Your Hands", "Ram-Pam-Pam" and "Les Mots d'Amour".

Most of the material that Baker performed was written especially for her, and the song "Dis-Moi Josephine", which she regularly performed in her act, became her trademark song.

Collectors and fans alike will adore this CD from the legendary queen of the Parisian night-life...Josephine Baker!
