About Anne Murray Duets: Friends & Legends

There's a feeling you get when you put on an Anne Murray record, and--apologies in advance to all you anti-sentimentalists--it's best summarized by the vocal legend herself in the classic tune "I Just Fall in Love Again." You can't help yourself; you fall in love. Those who've been listening along swollen-heartedly since the 1970s know the feeling well, and those who are about to discover Murray via this duets album and its handful of younger-skewing songs--the Nelly Furtado team-up on "Daydream Believer" especially--are going to have a hard time not submitting. It's the tenderness that hooks you: Murray's deep, confident voice manages to be maternal without being claustrophobic, an effect magnified here by expert vocal partners like Carole King, Emmylou Harris, and Olivia Newton John. The few left-field choices--Indigo Girls, k.d. lang, a ghostly appearance by Dusty Springfield--aren't hard-left enough to muck up the mood. And the song selection doesn't strike a false note either: "Cotton Jenny" sounds as right on an Anne Murray CD as "You Needed Me." Which means that if you have a soft spot for Murray at all, even one that's not quite as cushy as it used to be, you should prepare to be sucked in. It happens every time, as the song goes. --Tammy La Gorce Amazon.com

rating: 5 Ron from Harrison Twp., MI
A great CD, easy to listen to, not a bad song on the whole CD. Murray is always great and then adding the cream of the crop females to duet with makes it even greater. April 26, 2008

rating: 4 Still great after all these years
Anne Murray has always been a favorite of mine, however, not hearing anything from her of late I worried that this album would not be up to her standards. I worried for nothing. If you like her, you MUST get this. Her duets are fabulous and she has not missed a beat! She's only gotten better. April 22, 2008
