Enjoy Live!.......2007-04-29

I enjoyed Vikki's concert in Nagoya,Japan about 30 years ago. It was the very splendid. This CD also offers Charm of superstar Vikki. Anyway, she is GREAT.

VIKKI CARR CONCERT CLASSIC~BRAVO!!! .......2004-09-18

Vikki Carr possesses one of the finest voices in Popular Music history but sadly has not been given her just due by the music industry in her own country. Vikki Carr became the Legendary Superstar that her talent warrants with the release of her superb Spanish albums which are all sung with breathtaking vocal beauty and deeply felt passionate emotion. From the early sixties through the seventies Vikki recorded many classic LP's in English but it was her Spanish albums that gave her the acclaim she richly deserves. "It Must Be Him" was the lone token English mega-hit exception and this soulful live version from the Greek Theatre concert is a winner. Even though radio was not playing Vikki Carr records because she wasn't a singer/songwriter, (that tired 70's formula was a requirement for some goofy reason in this bleak musical era until Disco came along and then music plunged artistly to even deeper depths and we won't even mention the current sad state of the music world!) Vikki Carr concerts continued to be sold-out events that drew numerous standing ovations for her wonderful performing and great singing. This beautifully remastered 2CD set of "Live At The Greek Theatre" is a treasure chest of wonderful performances and it is great to experience this brilliant velvety soulful voice over and over again in a diverse program of great songs sung to absolute perfection! "Love Song" weaves through this gorgeous set of songs about love sung with vocal beauty and deeply passionate emotion that is unsurpassed. A soulfully sung "Spanish Medley" shows this fiery DIVA at her best and the superb "Judy Garland Medley" is brilliant and would make Judy Garland smile down with approval and anyone who appreciates the best in great singers will not want to miss this extraordinary concert! This is the Art Of Singing at its finest and Vikki Carr is still performing in peak form in concert and not to be missed as she is one of the all time greatest...thank you VIKKI CARR!!!

Excellent Live Recording.......2004-07-11

Vikki Carr's interpretation of "With Pen In Hand" is different in every recording. While the one in this album is perfectly nice and sentimental, if you like this song, you should also get the CD titled "It Must Be Him/For Once in My Life" featuring another version of the song she performed live in New York.

I know what it is!.......2004-07-09

The lyric should read "Without any thorns the rose can't be sweet" instead. The song is "The Lesson" first released in 10/1967 on a Liberty single. The 2002 CD release of "It Must Be Him / For Once in My Life" (Collectables) also features this song as a bonus.

Particular Vicki Carr Song.......2004-07-05

I am trying to find a CD by Vicki Carr with a song she does...I don't know the exact title but the main line is "A Rose Can't Be Sweet Without Any Thorns"...it's a beautiful song and I would appreciate any information. Thanks
