I just love this CD. I recently paid [dollar amount] to have the sound track from the movie With A Song In My Heart put on CD. I was very disapointed as it was studio recorded and only had a few songs from the movie. This CD is all I could have wanted. Froman was such a lovely person and had such a beautiful voice. I recently called Pittsburgh's oldies station to ask why I never hear Jane Froman recordings, they told me they don't have any. I am ordering another CD and sending it to one of the DJs. Only one song is missing from this CD that was in the movie. I believe the song is titled "I'm The Toast Of The Town In My Paris Gown. The American Medley is slightly different to the movie version, the song for Texas in the movie was Deep In The Heart Of Texas. I have ordered other CD's of Jane Froman's and look forward to hearing them. I was thinking and wondering why Bob Hope didn't ask Jane to appear in his USO shows then.I recomend this CD to anyone who loves Jane's beautiful voice.

I am a senior citizen who was a friend and fan of Jane Froman's in my youth. The CD is first rate. I have all of Ms. Froman's original recordings (78's, 33-1/3's and 45s) plus some original demo records from the 30's. While I enjoy listening to the CD when I am reading, there is nothing like the smell, feel and sound of putting the original recordings on my phonograph (a Panasonic HI-FI from the 1950's which plays 78s). I don't believe there will be any more stars of Ms. Froman's calibre in my lifetime; not only the magnificence of her voice, but her grace, graciousness and inner beauty which comes through in her music and in person.

The drawback with this ,is the recording quality. It should have been taken right from the soundtrack of the movie and then it would at least be hi-fi. There are better c d's of hers out there.

I had anticipated a bit better audio than this CD provided. I have heard better audio of Ms. Froman's in the past and sadly did not purchase it. Several songs were also cut off before they were completed. Ms. Froman's voice is unforgettable and her amazing courage remains unbelieveable, for those reasons I am glad that I did buy the CD.

I think this is a wonderful CD. With a Song in my heart movie is one of my all time favorites. So, I would definitely recommand this cd if you liked the music in the movie. Only wish we could get DVD with a Song in My Heart.

I just love this cd. I called our local oldies station in Pittsburgh and requested her songs, they have none. What a shame. I actually paid $53.00 to have the soundtract from the movie With A Song In my Heart put on CD. I was disapointed, there were only five songs, and it was studio recorded as this jacket informed me. Not all of the songs were included either. One song from the movie is not on this either. A song when Susan Hayward sang in a black gown, "Toast of the Town in my Paris Gown. The Texas part in American Medly was different than the movie. Jane Froman's unselfish life and her lovely voice should be heard by people today. I am tempted to send this CD to our oldies station.
