A traditional pop singer in the classic early ’50s mould, Eydie Gorme, started her career singing with big bands at the start of the 1950s.
She enjoyed a successful career and made the transition into the post rock ‘n’ roll era.
This 56-track set has selected A- and B-sides and features all her 10 solo US and UK chart entries from this era, including the Top 20 hits You Need Hands, a US No.1, Yes My Darling Daughter, a UK No.10, and Blame It On The Bossa Nova, a US No.7.
It showcases her ability and range across the spectrum from sophisticated big band material to upbeat pop.
REVIEWS
Acrobat seem to be steadily working their way through what seems to be the entire catalogue of the singers who came to prominence in the Fifties and now it's the turn of Eydie Gorme to have her early years of recording put under the microscope… an excellent collection which is full of interest. - Gerry Stonestreet (In Tune Issue 353)
