5.0 out of 5 stars WELL WORTH THE WAIT!, 22 Mar 2005
By Adrian Clark - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
AFTER ISSUING SIMILAR COMPILATIONS OF ARTISTS SUCH AS MICHAEL HOLLIDAY AND ALMA COGAN, WE NOW HAVE THIS CAREER-SPANNING COLLECTION OF RUBY MURRAY. IT HAS BEEN A LONG TIME COMING BUT IT IS WELL WORTH THE WAIT!.

ALL OF RUBY'S CLASSIC SINGLES ARE INCLUDED HERE, PLUS MANY B SIDES AND ALBUM TRACKS- MOST OF THEM APPEARING ON CD FOR THE FIRST TIME. INDEED, THIS IS THE FIRST RE-RELEASE FOR MANY OF THE TRACKS SINCE THEIR ORIGINAL RELEASE.

RUBY BECAME A RECORD BREAKER IN MARCH 1955 WHEN 5 OF HER SINGLES WERE IN THE UK TOP 20 SINGLES CHART IN ONE WEEK.

MEMORIES WILL COME FLOODING BACK WITH GEMS SUCH AS 'SOFTLY SOFTLY', 'IF ANYONE FINDS THIS I LOVE YOU', 'LET ME GO LOVER', 'GOODBYE JIMMY GOODBYE' AND THE STILL BEAUTIFUL 'EVERMORE'.

HOWEVER, THE RARER TRACKS ARE JUST AS LOVELY AND REFRESHING 'AT FINNIGAN'S BALL' AND 'NOW IS THE HOUR' BEING PARTICULAR HIGHLIGHTS.

IF YOU LIKE RUBY MURRAY, YOU WILL LOVE THIS COLLECTION. GET YOUR MONEY OUT- YOU DEFINETELY WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!.

5.0 out of 5 stars Irish singer popular in fifties Britain, 24 Nov 2005
By Peter Durward Harris "Pete the music fan" (Leicester England) - See all my reviews
(#1 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Ruby's big year was 1955, before Elvis changed the course of pop music forever. In that year, Ruby had a lot of hits in Britain, including five in the top twenty simultaneously at one point. This comprehensive anthology was released to mark the fiftieth anniversary of that achievement.

Ruby's songs included some traditional music from her homeland and many of those songs are included here, all superbly performed. They include It's the Irish in me, The green glens of Antrim, O'Malley's tango, At Finnegan's ball, With me shillelagh under me arm and Mick McGilligan's ball as well as seven live recordings of Irish songs, two of which (Teddy O'Neil, Doonaree) also appear in studio versions. If even this compilation doesn't satisfy your desire to hear Ruby's Irish songs, a twofer has been released concentrating entirely on them.
