It is a good CD set but I really expected more from it, but still well worth the money.
April 2, 2008Like reviewer Carolyn Scott, I too have been searching far and wide and for quite a long time for the CD release of my all-time favorite of Nancy Wilson's remarkable catalogue, the baroque "In A Long White Room".
From the moment I heard it I was captivated by this song, with its witty, trippy lyric, delicate psychedelic arrangement and Miss Wilson's playful and seductive vocal; it received serious radio play in Chicago on WMAQ-AM back in 1970-71 when that station featured classic and MOR vocalists.
Not too long after I went searching local record shops for either the single or its lp, which I eventually found ("Nancy: The Charm, The Thrill, The Beauty, The Excitement of the Magnificent Nancy Wilson") and played incessantly. And with the release of other, earlier Wilson CD compilations featuring cuts such as "You'd Better Go" and "If We Only Have Love", I'd been encouraged to believe that it could only be a matter of time before "In A Long White Room" found its way to compact disc--FINALLY my patience has been rewarded!
March 22, 2008I have loved Nancy Wilson since I was a teen and I was overjoyed to finally find one of my favorite songs "In A Long White Room" on CD. I searched far a wide and could only secure the LP. I expect to spend many hours listening and going down memory lane.The Very Best of Nancy Wilson: The Capitol Recordings 1960-1976

I just received my CD's a 3 CD collection. The is some of Nancys best work. I really enjoy The Capital Recordings most. You will not be disappointed if you appreciate the quality of a Fine Fine Jazz vocalist. Buy this CD you won't regret it.
November 14, 2007This overview of Nancy's Capitol years presents a nearly perfect selection of recordings. Many artists don't have a clue about their own careers but Nancy Wilson has always been highly aware and articulate about her own musical journey. Every recording here is brilliant--there simply are no lapses in taste or quality--and the range of material is remarkable. For years people have told Nancy they liked her "until you changed your style" but the fact is she never changed her style. She did grow in depth, breadth and wisdom as an artist and in the type of music she chose. At long last, this collection proves from first track to last that her style never changed. It was her music landscape that cinescoped! In my opinion, people became frustrated because she could not be classified, she didn't repeat and she was unpredictable. The proof she made wise choices is evident in the current high level of her career and her newest Grammy awards. She hasn't grown older, she's grown better.
