The Very Best,
By A Customer
This review is from: Spotlight on (Audio CD)
When I purchased this album, it was out of curiosity. I remembered Ms. Wilson as a pretty good pop singer from the 60's. While I was schooled early in the torch/jazz stylings of Ella, Sarah, Dinah and Billie, I never connected Nancy with them. Now, having compared the five, Nancy takes the crown. Call it an epiphany. Nancy Wilson is the very best. It is clear that she understands and probably lived the lyrics. Add to that a dazzling talent, she is irresistible. Little Girl Blue will enter your heart like a laser, The Good Life will make your psyche soar, and Someone to Watch Over Me lets you know what it is to have that incomplete feeling. Of my hundreds of CD's and thousands of LP's, I think this is the one I would select to take to the proverbial desert island. It would keep me in touch with what it is to be human and allow me to continue to grow emotionally.

Great Starter CD to the Genius of Nancy Wilson,
By Peter (East of Los Angeles) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Spotlight on (Audio CD)
Of the glut of Nancy Wilson Capitol CD's out there, this is a very nice one to start with. Part of the "Spotlight Series" that Capitol Records issues of their top-selling artists, this is indeed one of the best "Spotlight" CDs. First of all, sound quality is terrific. This may come as a shock, but I've discovered that Capitol doesn't always have the strictest sound quality control for their reissued discs, but this one is fantastic. The songs are culled from Nancy's Sixties stuff -- definitely her very best. This also shows that Ms. Wilson was comfortable with whatever music accompaniment thrown at her -- orchestras, strings, jazz trios, piano solo -- you name it and she excels in every musical setting. Definitely a very "Show-Off" CD to demonstrate the mastery and genius of Nancy Wilson when she was at her peak. Give her a great song and she'll do wonders with it. Get this one ! You won't regret it.

Honest Compilation: Nancy Wilson from Capitol Records,
By
This review is from: Spotlight on (Audio CD)
Don't get fooled when trying to find The Best, The Greatest Hits, The Finest on Nancy Wilson - if it's an original album it will be a Capitol Records disk. Same thing to be said about a compilation. This is a school for those who love the weak repertoire Ms.Wilson currently deals with. Even her old easy-listening hits are very good. This is a 5 star compilation.
