Synopsis

Album Description

This album showcases the versatility of movie star Jane Russell--you've seen her in movies, now hear her sing in various moods and styles ranging from songs of faith with excellent harmonizing (think Andrews Sisters) to boy-girl numbers and sizzling naughty tunes! Also features Connie Haines and Beryl Davis. Almost all the songs here are appearing on CD for the first time.

CD Reviews

Great restoration...fine recordings...solid vocals

(4 out of 5 stars)

""The Magic of Believing" uses the orignal mid-1950's Capitol LP of the same title as its corner stone, which features 13 selections from the Capitol LP and one Capitol single, all performed by a trio made up of Russell, Beryl Davis and Connie Haines, who later had a solo RCA sacred album released. Sepia label did a wonderful job with the restoration of the old recordings...they sound fresh and timely, and the trio has a nice blend similar to The Fontane Sisters or Andrews Sisters. One of the tunes the trio covers is The McGuire Sisters semi-hit, "He's Got Time." The other selections on the CD are solos by Jane Russell with a few duets with Johnny Desmond and Mary McCarty that are nice. One of the good things about this CD is that the label passed on the lousy duets Russell recorded with the so-called singer, comic, Bob Hope...Hope could manage to spoil any artists' recordings, as he did with legends like Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney, as well as Russell. All in all, this is a nice CD with a fine booklet!"
