A DISAPPOINTING RELEASE.

"The producers took original material and "souped it up" to fit the eighties. In the process they ruined the originals. Results: overblown, multi-slick, surupy sounds. All of the songs are available on other Patsy Cline cds. Buy them-do not buy this recording. Not good!"
This CD was a real disappointment for any Patsy Cline fan!

"Unfortunately, the producer of this CD added strings and background singers to the original vocals. According to the information included with the disc, this was to make the songs more suited to the music tastes of the 80's. The result is ornate and syrupy. The wonderful characteristics of Ms. Cline's voice get lost in this recording. What a shame!"
A LEGEND LIVES ON

"If the success of her "12 Greatest Hits", which is up to 9 million in sells, hasn't proved that Pasty Cline's music is timeless, this one will. This CD, created in 1980 by Patsy Cline's producer and hall of fame member Owen Bradly, explores the idea that Patsy Cline's voice is acceptable in any time period. In "Always", the orignal background instrumentation has been replaced with new arrangements which, remenisent of the 1980's, had a new life to her marvolous recordings. With these new gems in the treasured box of Patsy Cline's legacy, her name and songs will surley remain popular as long as thier is music."
