This is a must have CD for all fans of Ann-Margret --You can not beat the 48 tracks---and to think when all was said and done-- I was waiting for "Someday Soon"--the only song a mirror to "He's My Man"--and it was not included---Both cuts written by Sloan-Barri should have been a top 10 hit for Ann-Margret but alas-timing is everything both cuts very seductive and very contagious-However. The entire package was a superb collection and a real treat. Its nice that Ann-Margret is still going strong and back in the recording studios these days..The lady has done it all and shes done it all real good!!!!Bravo

This review is from: Viva La Vivacious: the Best of the RCA Years (Audio CD)

This 2-disc, CD set contains all the best Ann-Margret recordings from her RCA studio years, and is a lot more accessible than the uber-expensive box set, now out of print, from Bear Family Records. All these sessions are mostly from the 60's, and it shows that she really had a knack with a song. Amazingly, she never made much of an impact on the pop-record scene, where she certainly showed more talent than she did in the movies. Her retro-sex kitten image was never hotter than on a lot of these recordings, among the best cuts are: TEACH ME TONIGHT, MR. KISS KISS BANG BANG, MACK THE KNIFE, BEGIN THE BEGUINE, and, worth the price of admission on it's own: THE SWINGER!
