CD Description
Margaret Whiting scored major hits in the 1940s and in 1959 was invited to re-record 12 of her Top Twenty hits in stereo that are contained here, plus contemporary hits of the day and made available on CD for the first time.
Included are her American chart-toppers and million sellers "A Tree in the Meadow" and "Slippin' Around" plus "Now is the Hour" and "Far Away Places", both of which reached No. 2 in the U.S. charts. The 3 bonus tracks at the end of the programme are private recordings made by Whiting with her regular pianist Walter Gross never before issued.
"My Tears Will Fall Now That You're Gone,
I Can't Help But Cry, But I Must Go On"
with most of the greats of that era who actually sang the lyrics as they were intended. Thankully, shouting the words out or whining as of today's trend wouldn't have been considered as singing.
