Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Sounds good to me.......2007-02-25

I really was just looking for one song- What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life, but for the price, I got 3 discs. I am enjoying all 3 and have not really noticed any poor sound quality.

5 out of 5 stars Includes Many Rare Songs!.......2003-05-29

If you're looking for some of Shirley's Biggest Hits like " Never Never Never" or "Diamonds are forever" this box set is not for you. It includes some wonderful highlights from her unique career, disc 2 features many songs from her "The Magic Is you" album, most songs here were out of print for many years. I was surprised to hear Shirley's version of "Emotion" (or "Amoureuse"). Her own interpretations of "Feelings", "You are the sunshine..." The Way We Were", "All In Love Is Fair", etc remain unforgettable until today.

4 out of 5 stars A Great Bassey Collection!.......2003-03-25

Some of her best work, not easily found elsewhere. The gem is 'Born to Lose' which I heard her do live some years back. A definite plus for any Bassey fan. Only reason I didn't rate a '5' is that some of the tracks need a remastering due to some minor tape hiss.

5 out of 5 stars one of her best encompassing a lot of her best work.......1999-05-24

what a great compilation of shirleys best stuff. missing one song i cant find "the ballad of the sad young men". anyone knows where i can find it, send me a message. dzar@webtv.net

4 out of 5 stars Great value 3CD set containing hard to find tracks........1998-09-11

This 3 CD set features 54 tracks mainly from the 1960's and 70's. It contains several tracks not available on any other Bassey CD including The Way We Were, What I Did For Love, Born To Lose, Emotion, My Way, I'll Be Your Audience, All In Love Is Fair and Feelings. Only disappointment is the fact that the tracks were not remastered for CD and some tracks contain some background hiss.
