The Greatest Hit's of Crystal Gayle
This is a superb compilation. Crystal charted many, many hit singles in the 70s and 80s and as a life long country fan I can truly say this collection really contains the cream of the crop.
"Why have you left the one you left me for" with it's troubling lyrics, yet feel good rhythm and "Talking In your sleep," a slow ballad, about a woman left wondering are here. Two very well known songs and they are probably my favourite songs she has ever recorded.
Elsewhere we have "When I dream", a top 40 hit in the late 1970s is also included, as is the big one, "Don't it make my brown eyes blue", her best known recording that took her career to a new height and was a success all over the world.
This album really lives up to it's title as "Crystal Gayle's All Time Greatest Hit's"
Class, and a wonderful voice
I'm not a big country music fan but for a few years they had my attention. My favorite country artists were Tammy Wynette (NOT for Stand By Your Man), Dolly Parton, Don Williams, George Jones, and the sweetest of all, to me, Crystal Gayle. The first song I heard by her was Somebody Loves You and it remains one of my favorite songs. Then came I'll Get Over You. I discovered her before she crossed over with Brown Eyes Blue. You have to listen to When I Dream, Talking In Your Sleep, and You Never Miss A Real Good Thing. When she came to New York I went to see her 2 or 3 nights in a row at The Bottom Line. She has so much class and she is so sweet. After her set ended, a guy handed her flowers and asked for an autograph. When she came out for her encore she first handed the guy the autograph he asked for. A down to earth girl who appreciates her fans.
BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY POP
Gayle straddles country and pop - accessible enough for the mainstream yet genuine enough to be country. I love her sweet voice and accomplished interpretations, my favourite tracks being Talking In Your Sleep, the bouncy reggae-rhythmed Why Have You Left The One You Left Me For, Wrong Road Again and the tender When I Dream (I dream of you/maybe someday, you will come true). Great voice, great songs, great delivery - real music from the heart.
