Good entry point........2007-01-27

Loved her voice but didn't know too much background. This CD is a nice survey collection to get you started.

They always forget the great ladies of song. This is by far one of the best cd's I have purchased in a long time.

Perfect..........2006-05-16

There are a few recordings that I like to refer to as my "cigar" music, this is indeed one of them, perfect for late night sitting on my balcony with a good cigar. Tune after tune, a homerun!! I like to load them in the player and program them in a random order.

Her beautiful, mellow, smokey voice takes you back to a simpler time.......2006-03-03

I absolutly love it!

Missing a lot of songs, but still important to buy. Some of these songs made me cry. The emotions in her voice were so unreal. People compare her to Billie and Bessie a lot, but Dinah had her own style. It's too bad that she is not remembered as much as the other ladies. One day, she will get her due respect (maybe a movie will help). Anyway, if these songs don't make you a fan then you don't know good music.
