"What a wonderful album! I couldn't stop listening to the samples before I got it. Starved for good music, I am just discovering some neat music from the early 1900's. Annette Hanshaw has so much class, and makes most of today's pop singers sound like a fart."

Lovable and Sweet

"This is the compilation to buy, because it has the main song. Annette Hanshaw was just a teenager when she recorded "Lovable and Sweet". Unbelievable. What a voice. And what a song! Written by Oscar Levant, it's lyrics and melody work wonderfully together. It has delightful complex internal rhymes that are a joy to rediscover after the simplicity of the last few decades' pop songs. Almost anyone listening to Annette sing this song for the first time is going to -- I don't know how to put it. Can you fall in love with a young girl that died 16 years ago at 75?"

"This CD from the fine works of Annette Hanshaw is a real piece of Americana!The soothing voice of this 30's star comes across crisp and clear. Most folks my age (51) don't have a clue who even Annette was and thats fine because most my age don't have a clue about what real music is either. It's no wonder that Annette was known as a Band Leader's Dream the way that she could blend right in with the music. The days of singers like Annette Hanshaw,Connee Boswell,Jo Stafford and Helen Forest are gone forever.The Pop Music of today has nothing to offer and I mean nothing! The only way to hear good music today is to go back into the arcives of time and hold on to what will never again be duplicated! Treat yourself to some of the finest singing ever recorded-Annette Hanshaw!

"Enjoy" Joe Kopeck"
