Jasmine Records Kate SMITH - Two Dozen Roses CD

When Kate Smith died on 17th June, 1986, America lost one of its best-loved radio personalities. Millions of fans would no longer hear the opening strains of When The Moon Comes Over The Mountain coupled with that famous greeting, sincere, soft and slowly spoken: Hello, Everybody. Here, you will find her covers of many classics of the thirties and forties, including The continental, Imagination, A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square, My Melancholy Baby, Blues In The Night, We'll Meet Again and The Trolley song. On the basis of what I've heard, Kate's recordings were of a consistently high quality, so this collection is every bit as good as any other collection of her music. If you are new to Kate's music, this is an excellent introduction.
