Has there ever been a more angelic voice for light pop and country music than Pattie Page? I doubt it; always pleasant, but with an occasional tone of heartbreak in her voice, Page is electric in ways that more animated performers will never be. "Mister and Mississippi" is one of the songs that makes one yearn for the days of great songwriting--it's recording is quite scratchy but it is nonetheless a keeper. "Tennessee Waltz" is the original mutli-tracked version and it lacks a bit of the poignancy of Page's solo versions (as performed on stage) but it is an interesting version of the tune nonetheless. "Changing Partners" is one of Page's most beautiful contributions to the art of song performance, and it is not the version used of late in Paul Thomas Anderson's film "The Master" (which was not performed by Page), but the recording here is my favorite. Overall, if you want a great collection of early Page songs with decent sound, this is a good one. This has very good quality in its selection of songs. ~Leslie Karen Rigsbey
