a lot for the money

This CD offers a lot for the money plus a lot of tracks previously unissued. Sound quality is good. The complete album Sunny and Blue is not included, but about ten of the twelve tracks are, though not in album sequence. All mono as originally recorded.

WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND
Aug 27 2012

Format:Audio CD
Most if not all earlier reissues of Sunny Gale's recordings have been flawed, either because of poor remastering quality, inadequate selection, or both. So this reissue of 56 tracks, which spans the period she spent with RCA Victor, and subsequently with Decca Records, is greatly to be welcomed. The only minus is that the tracklist omits date of recording and details of original release, exacerbated by being in random order. That omission may be forgiven because this set includes all of her chart singles, as well as the twelve tracks from her rare 1956 LP "Sunny and Blue". She was accompanied on that feast of standards by Ralph Burns, who also officiated on many of her singles, as did Hugo Winterhalter and Joe Reisman. This is an excellent compilation, which has been very well remastered, and should commend itself to her existing fans, and help swell their ranks.

I didn't rate this 5 stars because the Title "WHEEL OF FORTUNE" is mis-leading. The original 1952 version is NOT on it.
It was replaced with a 1958 version which don't sound anything like the original 1952 version, which is the main reason I bought this album.
Her other recordings on this album are very well produced and very hard to find on CD. It's a good album of this hard to find lady...
