5.0 out of 5 stars Connie's Country - Great country, August 22, 2005

I have always been a Connie Francis fan but was surprised to see "Connie's Country" on Amazon, I never knew she had a country album out. The CD is great, Connie's incredible voice and style give these country classics new life. Again, she crossed a music boundry/style and has improved on it. I actually like many of these re-recordings better than the originals. If you're a Connie Francis fan, this CD is a real treat.

4.0 out of 5 stars VERSATILE CONNIE, May 21, 2006

By	Terry D. Robertson "Terry D. Robertson" (Asheville, NC USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Connie's Country (Audio CD)

This proves Connie can sing anything. This CD covers her country releases but unfortunately is minus some of her finer moments during her foray into C&W such as "I'd Be A Legend In My Time and They'll Be No Teardrops Tonight". But this UK import is very good indeed and should be in everyone's collection. The sound quality is excellent and the care that was put into this project is evident. A welcome addition to the Connie Francis library.

4.0 out of 5 stars The small country, November 15, 2003

By	Tadeusz Zdrojewski (Warszawa (Warsaw) Poland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Connie's Country (Audio CD)

"Connie's Country" is another CD with Connie's hits compiled by Spectrum Music (UK). Actually, it is not a re-edition of any of her regular MGM recordings but a set of her 18 country-style pop songs recorded throughout 1959-1968. Apart from the fact that she recorded also country songs in duets with Hank Williams, Jr. and Marvin Rainwater, we don't even get here the complete collection of her solo country recordings. Her two best country pop singles: "My heart has a mind of its own" and "Jealous heart" remain out of this disc, as well as "Everybody's somebody's fool", "Drownin' my sorrows" , "He thinks I still care", "I wish I had a wooden heart" , "The wayward wind" and other. It is strange that some of these songs are spread among the other compilations by Spectrum Music (e.g. "Who's Sorry Now" and "The World of Connie Francis"). What was the problem to collect them in one place?
Connie proves here that she is the best in any kind of pop music, so five stars for her! But only three stars for Spectrum Music for its incomplete work: 47-minute disc is pretty too short and does not contain the best of Connie's Country. However, the disc's title fits its contents, this is unfortunately a small Country.
