5.0 out of 5 stars 2 Cd set! Great Songs of the Seventies/The Great American Songbook, March 15, 2008

This review is from: You Take My Heart Away/ Yesterdays (Audio CD)

This is a digitally remastered long awaited double CD release of two great Bassey albums "You Take My Heart Away" from 1977 and "Yesterdays" from 1978 (plus 5 bonus tracks!). If they were being released for the first time in 2008, they would probably be titled "Great Songs of the Seventies" and "The Great American Songbook". The title track from the first album is from the movie "Rocky" and is one Bassey's best recordings. Also included are her versions of classic songs of the seventies including "Silly Love Songs", "If" and "Come In From The Rain". The second album was a complete change in style. Bassey returned to the studio to record in the old fashioned way. Bassey and full orchestra together in the studio, recording "live" just like in the old days. The results are outstanding!. Each song is a powerhouse performance. Many others have since tried to record "The Great American Songbook", but here we have the greatest female singer of them all performing these classic songs, full throttle with full orchestra.

Nice, pleasant double album. Bassey's voice is always strong and enjoyable. It is a real good value. Of course, nothing is better than her "Greatest Hits" album with the Bond themes and other well-known hits. But if you need another "Shirley fix", the two-fer will do the trick.
