 OK doable
Love Petula hate some of the tracks. Who picks this, and why it it still happening. I can't wait until I finally her perform before she retires. Ok off to review the new box set Vikki Carr Ultimate Collection, that will have five stars the best tunes were picked as Vikki worked with EMI. Let's get Petula to do that for us! She is such a talent Hurry Sept 2007 for Pet's Seattle concert.

NICE SELECTION BUT MISSING SOME KEY TRACKS
I realize that putting together a Duets package on someone is difficult, especially where there is not much of studio recorded duets available. Varese's new PETULA CLARK DUETS features some studio and some TV soundtrack duets with some of the greats. However, clocking in at 54:15, two definite ommissions could have been included with time still left to spare.
One track features is the track LEAD ME ON, a single for Petula on Polydor in the UK in the 70s featuring French star, Sacha Distel. I'm extremely happy that this track has finally made CD, but what about the even better B-side called TAKIN' IT ON? Personal opinion would have flipped tracks and used TAKIN' as the A-side upon original release. A second Rod McKuen studio track called LAH-DEE-DAH could have rounded out the set, even if it offered Mr. McKuen two tracks over the other partners. It is a cute song, and hopefully will be included on a forthcoming album of McKuen songs Petula is doing, where this track could be a Bonus feature.
Petula gives her own take on each track with comments noted in the booklet, which is a nice touch. I'm not sure of who was responsible for final selection. However, other Petula projects, among other artists produced by Pierson have also lacked, so why should this one be any different.
The saving grace of this collection is a newly created duet between Petula and the late great Dusty Springfield mixed last year, with Dusty's portion coming from 1974. "Corner Of The Sky" from PIPPIN takes on a new light, and I'm glad this was able to happen.

THE VERY BEST OF includes a 46-page booklet with pictures and track information.
"Hole In The World" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal.
The Eagles' founders Don Henley and Glenn Frey were forthright in their desire to bring then-emerging country rock to new heights of commercial success. Formed in Los Angeles in 1971, they learned from their observations of the scene around them, and subsequently took their music to the top of the charts. They stayed there throughout the '70s, becoming synonymous with the sound of Southern California rock.
The band's first hit was with a song by Jackson Browne, and their first album also included a cover of "Ol' 55" by Tom Waits, but the bulk of the material they're known for was penned by Henley and Frey. This two-disc set wisely expands the original VERY BEST OF collection with important album tracks that have also long been band staples and favorites (such as the aforementioned Waits tune and a number of other songs from their pre-platinum first three releases). As is often the common industry-wide practice, there's also a new song, "Hole in the World."
A 2-CD retrospective from the multiplatinum superstars whose 1976 "Greatest Hits" is the #1 album of all time! Special Limited Edition bonus DVD included with a music video, outtakes from the video and backstage pass to Farewell 1.
Initial pressings included a bonus DVD.
Recorded between 1972 & 2003.

Jamie/Guyden Dist.

Tom Moulton adds his magic touch to "Waitin for the Rain" and "Yes, I'm Ready." The album also celebrates the great session musicians of Philadelphia - Ronnie Baker on bass, Norman Harris on guitar and Earl Young on drums, the musicians who became MFSB and the backbone of the Philadelphia sound of the 1970s.Tom Moulton has remixed the original multi-track tapes for most Jamie/Guyden releases on CD of oldies by Brenda and ...

Duets songs
$25.19
While MUSICALLY RICH...AND FAMOUS documents the second half of British blues godfather Alexis Korner's career, KORNERSTONED adopts a more comprehensive approach, following the pioneering singer/guitarist from the very beginning of his musical life, all the way through every subsequent phase of his development. So we get not only his mid-1960s work with burgeoning blues-rock giants like Paul Rodgers and Steve Marriott, but also his `50s skiffle recordings (basically the British version of jug-band music) with the Ken Colyer band and his own skiffle group, and even an early acoustic guitar duel with famed fingerpicker Davey Graham on "3/4 A.D." ...
