My wife and I both loved the original dynamic voice and sounds of Timi Yuro. In fact we listened to some original LP albums over the holidays and decided to buy a CD. On this particular CD she sounds like she is 65 years old. The dynamic voice and emotion are NOT there. I don't know if the recording on this particular CD is the problem or what, but we were very disappointed when we listened to it. We still love Time Yuro but this CD did not deliver.

Timi was a wunderkind of the sixties and then she drifted away. But, now with several new releases of her material, a new audience has a chance to find her. The voice, the emotion. Give her a try and you will not be sorry. I have loved her material for years and looked for releases and could not find any until the early 90's. Now we have a bounty of great Timi Yuro listening.

It gives just an idea of this womans voice range, and what a voice. I have been a fan for about thirteen years and am still searching for other music by Timi.

Great for remembering the days when we were younger, and people genuinely cared about each other. A truly marvelous trip down memory lane.

The samples I listened to of Timi's do NOT do her justice. Timi Yuro was one of the greatest singers of all time!!! The original recording of"Hurt" was fantastic and this sample sounds awful. Please, if you are going to promote this lady of the past and sell her recordings on CD's try and make the samples authentic and clear. Timi's unique voice can never be equaled as far as I am concerned, so preserve the talent ..don't ruin it. I have been searching for some facts about this lady also. Is she still living? If so, where and how is her health now?? The last news I have of her, she was very ill and quit recording. Please advise if possible. Thank you, Carolyn Babin cada@eastex.net

Timi was probably thegreatest white soul singer who ever lived.
She unfortunately suffered from throat cancer for a very long time, and I believe this was recorded when she still wasn't really well enough to hit those wonderful notes that she once did, but the emotion is still there. Her voice sounds much deeper, but still very warm.
This album is really for dedicated fans, and not one for first time listeners to her. I say this not to be critical, as I am one of her greatest admirers having been buying her music since 1961.
This lady suffered from dreadful promotion, and should have been a huge star. Mike Rossiter UK

As the title of this review states, there is only one Timi Yuro, only one voice that affects your heart is such a deep and loving manner... Tim Yuro's voice. Yes, I'm a fan but more importantly, is the moments of comfort that her great work has given to me and all of the listening public. Any CD or recording by Timi is wonderful... and so is this one. Thanks Timi for such great musical memories... Respectfully submitted by Dr. John Cafferty
