Mindy Carson was one of the female vocal stars who came to the fore during the late 1940s and early '50s in the wake of the demise of the big bands, becoming popular on radio and TV as well as having hits which were very much in the style of the era, often with songs where there versions by several artists in the charts. This great-value 54-track 2-CD comprises selected A & B sides from her singles on the Signature, Musicraft, RCA-Victor, Columbia and Joy labels from these years, which represented the primary era of her recording career, and includes at least one side of the majority of her 50 or more releases. It features all her nine career chart entries, including the No. 6 "My Foolish Heart", and the Top 20 hits "Rumors Are Flying" with Harry Cool, "Candy And Cake", "Bewitched" and "Wake The Town And Tell The People", plus her duet hit with Guy Mitchell "('Cause I Love You) That's A-Why". It represents an entertaining and varied cross-section of her recordings and provides a showcase for the talent and versatility of a successful artist about whose music we don't hear too much these days.
