4.0 out of 5 stars What a GREAT Surprise from EMI records, 20 May 2002
By A Customer
Bringing back these great Vikki Carr songs is just a tease for wanting more of VIKKI CARR cd s to be reissued . This group of songs are off old lps and masterfully remastered . From YOU DONT HAVE TO SAY YOU LOVE ME to NOWHERE MAN to TEARS ON MY PILLOW , these are some of VIKKI's best from the time period that she recorded them. Get this cd if you want to enjoy a great collection from a talented singer who knows how to deliver a great song with a great voice!!!!
Id like to explain the 4 STAR rating : it is for the overall package of cd not the quality of songs or singing sound...It is due to the fact that ALL these songs are already available elsewhere . PLEASE reissue songs that are on lps that have not been on cd before. Miss Carr has over 50 lps that have NEVER been available on cd . WHY cant we get new reissues and not the same songs in a new package?
Vikki deserves better treatment from the reissuers and her fans deserves ALL of her lps on cd reissued

5.0 out of 5 stars Vikki matches Dusty, Petula, Beatles, Elvis, Tom, et al, 30 Jun 2002
By Peter Durward Harris "Pete the music fan" (Leicester England) - See all my reviews
(#1 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Vikki shows, via this CD, that she is as good a singer as you will ever find, covering a lot of popular songs of the sixties, but also going back to the thirties (I only have eyes for you).

On some songs, she sticks more or less to the original arrangement. On others, she follows the example of Petula and slows them down, including the Tom Jones classic It's not unusual.

Other great covers include You don't have to say you love me (Dusty), Nowhere man (Beatles), Until it's time for you to go (a Buffy Sainte-Marie song made famous by Elvis) and Call me (first recorded by Petula). In each case, Vikki's version is every bit as good as the famous version - and I am a big fan of all those singers.

As if that were not enough, she also does superb covers of songs made famous by Frank Sinatra, Andy Williams, Bobby Darin, the Supremes, Dionne Warwick and Glen Campbell. Again, her versions are the equal of the originals (sometimes even better), and again, I love the original artists.

Tears on my pillow was originally a great rock'n'roll hit for Little Anthony, but I've got even greater covers by Reba McEntire and Kylie Minogue. Vikki matches all of them.

If there is a weakness, it is Ac-cent-tcho-ate the positive, first recorded by Bing Crosby and the Andrews sisters. Vikki's version is very good, without matching the original - but the Andrews sisters were particularly good at the uptempo swinging songs.

Despite that minor point, this is a wonderful compilation which shows that Vikki should have been a megastar. If only Vikki had been able to record suitable hit songs BEFORE anybody else got them. If only .....

Buy this now - you will enjoy it !!!!!

VIKKI CARR HAS THE VOICE TO SING WHATEVER HER FANS WANT! THIS IS A COLLECTION OF BALLADS AND 60'S POP SONGS WITH THE VIKKI CARR STYLE THAT MADE HER A SUPERSTAR. ANYONE WHO HAD A HEART, YESTERDAY WHEN I WAS YOUNG, NOWHERE MAN, AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO SAY YOU LOVE ME ARE MY TOP PICKS, ALSO MY WORLD IS EMPTY WITHOUT YOU. THIS IS PERFECT MUSIC FOR THOSE WHO HAVE A HEART AND LISTEN TO THIS LEGEND VIKKI CARR!!! MAYBE WE CAN GET "NASHVILLE BY CARR" AND "THE WAYS TO LOVE A MAN" ON CD EMI, ALSO SOME SINGLES RELEASED HERE IN ENGLAND SUCH AS Across the Tracks, Whenever Your Lonely, Tell her About Our Love etc. JUST KEEP THE VIKKI CARR CD'S A COMING!!!!
