Description

The Andrews Sisters came on the scene in 1938 with “Bei Mir Bist Du Schon”, and closed out their era in the early fifties with the dreamy ballad “I Can Dream Can’t I” and the monster smashes in between with “Rum And Coca-Cola” and “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy” to name just a few. Their blissful passion shines on through in this 4CD collection of some of their most popular tunes. Disc one and two are all their Top Ten hits in chronological order. Disc three and four are full of rare tunes, You can’t listen to these tracks and not tap your feet and sing along. The Andrews Sisters recorded every kind of song imaginable and it’s amazing how well it all holds up after all these years. The sisters perform a capella with only bass and drums underneath them, with instrumental inflections between vocal lines. The sound quality is amazing. This Andrews Sisters collection serves as a good introduction to an amazing body of work unsurpassed and still thoroughly enjoyable in the 21st Century. This set features 101 original recordings from this legendary sister group, who still to this day, remain a huge favourite. Over four and a half hours playing time, featuring many duets with Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Dick Haymes and more!
