Disco de Patsy Cline: “True Love: A Standards Collection”
 Descripción (en inglés) :
Producer: Owen Bradley.
<p>Compilation producers: Joseph F. Laredo, Andy McKaie.
<p>Recorded at Bradley Film & Recording Studios, Nashville, Tennessee between 1961 & 1963. Includes liner notes by Joseph F. Laredo.
<p>Digitally remastered by Doug Schwartz (Audio Mechanics, Burbank, California).
<p>TRUE LOVE is a nicely assembled selection of tracks that originally appeared on Cline's albums between 1961 and 1963. Actually, the word "standards" is a little misleading, as there's no Gershwin, Johnny Mercer, Rogers and Hart, or Jerome Kern to be found here (although there are two lesser songs by Cole Porter and Irving Berlin). It's more accurate to say that this is a collection of (occasionally cornball) oldies, harmonically and structurally similar to country songs, that Cline's producer Owen Bradley had her sing in an early attempt at pop crossover. That said, Cline doesn't try to sing them as pop. Her phrasing and intonation remain as distinctively country as ever. Standouts include Berlin's "Always," which Cline tears into with genuine passion, and a smoldering version of "Bill Bailey Won't You Please Come Home" which abruptly starts to swing at the halfway mark.

- A perfect accompaniment
This album is a perfect accompaniment to those who only have a greatest hits collection. Her rendition of Always is a definitive recording and should be listened to....period. Again this collection does NOT have her well-known hits like Crazy and Sweet Dreams, but is well worth owning. All this said, i must state that I am NOT a country music fan. Patsy's voice deserves a listen and you will NOT be disappointed! Análisis de usuario - 23 Junio 2000

- MEMORIES
THIS CD TOOK ME BACK TO WHEN I WAS YOUNG AND DREAMED OF BEING IN LOVE. THIS CD IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR TO ADD TO MY COLLECTION. NO ONE SINGS OF LOVE LIKE PATSY CLINE AND THE MUSIC IS PURE COUNTRY CLASSIC. - Improving with listening.
I am biased. Patsy is one of the all time greats, and everything she did was fine. That said, Greatest Hits is the one to get if you can only get one, and you want to find out what the legend is all about. Her voice meshes perfectly with the slightly overwrought vocals required by the country audience.
With popular music, there can sometimes be a need to play it straight. I have always loved the 1930s version of "Always", and "Love Letters" just has the definitive Pat Boone stamp. Patsy's versions of these and others adds a little spin to the proceedings, which I think will appeal to me more and more over time, but which stand a little in the shadow of the masterpieces created by the originals.
That said, what more enjoyable way to spend some time than to hear Patsy belt out the best she had to offer? If you get this you WILL NOT be disappointed. Not quite perfect, but extremely good.
