BACK WHERE IT BELONGS!

"I'm so elated that Amazon has GORME COUNTRY STYLE again in stock. This album is the crowning achievement of my entire music collection. The cd I had to own. I've never gotten sick of it! I wanted the lp so badly that I got 2 copies for Xmas 1964. At this point in time, Eydie Gorme's voice was simply superb. She used her full range to the fullest. Naturally Eydie's voice was citified on the 12 orginal numbers but the integrity of each song is untarnished. Eydie's covers of those big cross-over hits that were familiar to me were improvements over the originals. On END OF THE WORLD, I'M SORRY, YOU DON'T KNOW ME, NO ONE TO CRY TO, I WALK THE LINE, OH LONESOME ME, CRAZY, MAKE THE WORLD GO AWAY, & I CAN'T STOP LOVING YOU, Eydie reinterpretated them with her vibrant wide ranging voice. Ray Charles, Patsy Cline, Willie Nelson, & Johnny Cash didn't have the emotional nor artistic range to do what Eydie did to these too often unsung gems. Granted all 4 singers were superb song stylsists & Patsy had a respectable range but their arrangements were hampered by the mandatory back up voices, or uneccessary talking in the middle of the song, or corny string work. Eydie's versions of the above 9 chart makers were done in a timeless, aesthetic versions where the orchestra improves on her crystal clear intpretations. I've never heard better versions of the 3 tunes that were hits before my time: I REALLY DON'T WANT TO KNOW, I CAN'T HELP IT, & SOMEDAY. Eydie out performs Linda Ronstadt, Mary Ford, & Della Reese on those 3 timeless laments. On OH LONESOME ME, I WALK THE LINE, & SOMEDAY, Eydie really swings & went full range on the notes. She just soared! It's really indescriable! The bouns tracks are alright but I rather not comment on them because I'm so focused on the 1st 12 tracks. I hope everybody enjoys this treasure as much as I do!"

"This is a killer album. Great songs and of course, she is the best. I first bought a vinyl when it first came out, then I bought the cassette and now I have the CD."
