Description:
This lively program presents her very best recordings of the early 50s. As befits "Canada's First lady Of Song", the program includes several French songs, and the opening and closing with different versions of her popular theme tune, Le Fiacre. The eclectic mix of old standards and new songs certainly demonstrates her versatility. Her first commercial recordings, that have never been issued on CD before, are here. |
