Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

In addition to subverting the conventions of greatest-hits discs--only five of these 17 tracks appear in the hit versions from Carpenter's studio albums--Party Doll does a better job of balancing the singer/songwriter's moods than any of her releases since 1992's Come On Come On. Here, upbeat celebrations such as "Down at the Twist and Shout" (included in a live Super Bowl take) and "I Feel Lucky" comfortably rub shoulders with the quietly sweet ("Dreamland", originally on an early-1990s various-artists set of lullabies) and brooding ("Stones in the Road") sides of Carpenter's work. Finally, her rendition of Mick Jagger's title tune hints that she has vital work yet to do. --Rickey Wright

After seeing this great artist in concert recently, I can say that the live versions of her old favorites add a twist to a compilation album that I have not noticed in others. A very well thought out selection of great songs in an excellent format.

Perfection 4 Aug 2011
By Foxboy
Format:Audio CD
I hesitated to buy this CD for some time as I already have most tracks on other albums. Really glad I bought it now, because the live tracks are great and some of the older studio tracks are (I think) re-recordings.
Anyway, the thing is, MCC can do no wrong for me. She sings songs that will make you cry, make you smile and make you dance.
Buy this album, allow yourself plenty of time to sit quietly with a glass of wine and enjoy a multitude of musical sensations.
