Summary: oooh, how sweet this is !!!
Comment: Sentimental Journey: Capitol's Great Ladies of Song, Vol. 2 gives us classic pop vocals and timeless love songs sung by the greatest songbirds probably ever at Capitol Records. The sound quality is excellent and the artwork is extremely well done.
Dinah Shore sings "Sentimental Journey with all her heart and soul; the male backup vocalists harmonize well--but this is Dinah's number. She never sounded better! The Andrews Sisters also do a fabulous job on "Well All Right (Tonight's The Night)." "Well All Right (Tonight's The Night)" features the sisters harmonizing at their usual high level of quality control and the big band style arrangement works wonders for this ballad! There's also "I'll Never Smile Again" by the great Keely Smith--wow, how that lady sings!
Martha Tilton gives us her sublime rendition of "And The Angels Sing;" Martha could sing unlike too many others and this number alone amply proves it! Martha Tilton should get more recognition that she currently gets; hers was a rare and beautiful talent. Helen O'Connell also sings "Green Eyes" with a fine arrangement that makes great use of the brass as Helen sings this flawlessly. "No Love, No Nothin'" by Ella Mae Morse shines like silver and gold when this chanteuse sings it with great sensitivity. I love it!
"You've Got To See Mamma Ev'ry Night (Or You Can't See Your Mamma At All)" by Kay Starr features Kay front and center while the big band arrangement sounds so good for this ballad. Kay Starr was always one of my favorite recording artists; her voice was always as clear as a bell and I am impressed. "Trav'lin Light" also gets a mighty fine treatment from the immortal Billie Holiday; Billie can do no wrong in my book.
Helen Forrest sings "I've Heard That Song Before;" I first heard this tune over twenty years ago but whenever Helen Forrest sings this it still sounds exciting, new and fresh to my ears. Listen also for the great Peggy Lee to deliver "Why Don't You Do Right (Get Me Some Money Too)" without a hitch--Peggy's uncanny sense of timing enhances her performance and I really like "Why Don't You Do Right (Get Me Some Money Too)."
June Christy does swell on "It's Been A Long, Long Time;" this romantic ballad is very pretty and June Christy sing it flawlessly. The King Sisters also do a fine job on "Take The 'A' Train;" I love how they harmonize and play with the key changes a bit! The CD also ends strong with "I'll Be Seeing You" by Jo Stafford. Jo Stafford sings this romantic, poignant and sentimental ballad with panache and this makes the perfect ending for this album.
Overall, if you like classic pop vocals, this album is for you! People who like these songbirds in general will also want this album for their collections.

Summary: Great Ladies Of Song Indeed
Comment: This AAD compilation, which first came out in 1992, offers up a collection of songs by some of the greatest female vocalists of the 1940s and early 1950s, including one from the little-known Mavis Rivers, the best singer to ever emerge from Western Samoa [track 5 which she recorded in 1959 with the Nelson Riddle orchestra].
Tracks 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, 19, 21, 22, and 24 are all original renditions and, with the exception of Kay Starr's You've Got To See Mama Ev'ry Night, each was a huge hit for the artists concerned. Other than tracks 9 and 23 [1951 re-recordings by Helen O'Connell, one of her smash hit while a vocalist with Jimmy Dorsey in 1941 and the other one of his brother Tommy's biggest hits from the 1930s], and tracks 20 [a 1961 cut by Dinah Shore reprising her 1944 hit] and 26 [a 1963 recording by Jo Stafford of a 1944 Bing Crosby hit] the remainder were mid- to late 1950s re-recordings of earlier hits.
The sound reproduction is excellent, and while there are no liner notes, per se, just a relisting of the selections showing the year each was recorded and the orchestras involved, there are some nice photos of most of the stars [there is none, unfortunately, of Mavis Rivers].
Also, although the track listings above show only the vocalists involved, on some of the original hits the bands were, in fact, the main billing - i.e., tracks 8 and 22 which were billed to Stan Kenton & His Orchestra with vocal by June Christy, track 21 which was billed to Freddie Slack & His Orchestra with vocal by Ella Mae Morse, and track 16 which was billed to Stan Kenton & His Orchestra with vocal by Anita O'Day.
Just one of a great series to emanate from Capitol back at the dawn of the CD age. A more informative insert would have brought it up to 5 stars.

Summary: Classy ladies singing classy tunes!
Comment: After watching a T V commercial with the song "Shoo Fly Pie and Apple Pan Dowdy" playing in the background, I wanted my daughters to hear the complete song. We found this and I was very pleased to see that it included more of the beautiful songs from that era with many more of my personal favorites such as "Sentimental Journey", "I Don't Know Enough About You" and "Doctor, Lawyer, Indian Chief". Being a child of the sixties, these songs were popular before my time...but having been raised with an appreciation of the big band classics, I knew most of the tunes on this volume and wanted to give my daughters the same opportunity. It's great nostalgic music, with a wonderful variety of songs and artists. I highly recommend this musical...sentimental journey...back in time.

Summary: Great Nostalgic Album
Comment: This is an awesome album of songs that were popular during WWII. The songs have brought tears to the eyes of my mother-in-law and grandmother that remembered these songs from the 40's. It is a wonderful mix of amazing songtresses. I particularly enjoyed Dinah Shore's Sentimental Journey and Rosemary Clooney's "You've gotta see Mama E'vry night".
