1.Rossini - La Cenerentola / Valentini-Terrani · Araiza · Dara · Trimarchi · Ravaglia · Schmiege · Corbelli · Ferro from: Sony Classical February 08, 1991
Average Rating: >>More Details
I first acquired this set on LP from CBS Masterworks, and it dates from 1980. Lucia Valentini-Terrani is ideal as Cinderella, and Enzo Dara is her stepfather, Don Magnifico. Francisco Araiza is Prince Ramiro, and Alessabdro Corbelli is Dandini. The Cappella Coloniensis is conducted on this set by Gabriele Ferro, who also recorded "L'Italiana in Algeri" with Miss Valentini-Terrani. I love this set, as Miss Valentini0Terrni is the perfect Cinderella, and the finale of the opera, especially, ought to be on a fan's iPod as well. YOu won't go wrong buying this. One note: this recording uses original instrumentation, so you can hear for yourself what an orchestra would have sounded like in 1817.

2.Fortune Turns the Wheel December 01, 1999
Average Rating: >>More Details
What can I say? There's not a bad track. The title song, "Fortune Turns the Wheel" is sung with effective emotion. "Sweet Lisbweemoore" will make you wish you were in Ireland. Much of the solo vocal work is by Heidi Wagner, whose voice I could listen to forever, but all the singers are great. The instrumentation includes Scottish small-pipes or concertina, both designed to be listened to in a quiet setting. Vermont seems to be the homeland of good acoustic music, and the "Fortune Turns the Wheel" group does the state proud.

6.Live at Freddy's by: Kay Starr December 30, 1997
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $18.99 Prices subject to change. Used Price: $9.99
This is the only live recording of late-era Kay Starr, and though she seems to be singing on one, worn-out vocal chord, this girl still could sing her behind off. There's a sublime, torchy medley of "For The Good Times" and "Help Me Make It Through The Night", that is so emotion-drenched that if your spine doesn't tingle, you'd better get to the doctor, 'cause you must be dead. When she hollers out "...make believe you love me ... ONE MORE TIME! ", she doesn't have to ask, because there is no way you can't love this woman! And she even rocks out with a swinging "Big Bad Leroy Brown" that no other singer would dare to pull off. Kay deserves her place right next to Dinah Washington AND Edith Piaf, and this recording proves it in spades!
