|  | Fantastic Budget Collection of Vintage Dottie West |  |
This budget collection is an appealing mix of actual "greatest hits" from the career of country legend Dottie West and a choice selection of fine covers of other people's hits. The first six songs are Dottie classics including three number one hits, A LESSON IN LEAVIN', ARE YOU HAPPY BABY, and WHAT ARE WE DOIN' IN LOVE. One of the highlights of the package is Dottie's 1977 hit remake of the charming 1920's pop song TONIGHT YOU BELONG TO ME. The last six songs are covers of songs by Kenny Rogers, Larry Gatlin, and others. These tracks I believe are only available on CD on this collection although they were on her vinyl albums from 25 years ago. A very nice buy set from one of the true queens of country music.

And I can't believe that the powers that be keep passing her by. This "Greatest Hits" complilation is not perfect but it's one of the few Dottie West collections out in the market today. Sweet memories of an unfairly forgotten lady.
August 7, 2003I always dug Dottie West's voice.She had a Easy going vibe in Her work while Her life was anything but easy.Her teaming up with Kenny Rogers was something that always worked for me."What are we doing in Love" was my Jam.She had a Nice Voice&was a Babe as well.this is a Good Collection.

Dottie West is best-known for her duets with Kenny Rogers and her stormy life history - born poor, molested by her father, married young, struggled as a singer-songwriter, broke through to stardom, married a much younger man, filed for bankruptcy, died in a car accident - that was dramatically brought to the screen by Michelle Lee. This CD should remind us that Ms. West was also a heck of a country-pop singer. Though this CD lacks her early material (see The Essential Dottie West for that) it has some good material from her "sexy mama" period. I only wish the CD had more photos of West, with her flashy Bob Mackie outfits, of course. Defintely a treat.
