 Every Inch Her Rival October 23, 2005
2 out of 4 found this review helpful
Entertainer Debbie Reynolds is best remembered as an actress, but she occasionally ventured into the recording studio to record albums of country, pop and standards. Debbie was often referred to as the "new" Judy Garland, mainly because of her sweet innocence and her ability to portray a character promptly while performing a song. One might argue Debbie's singing abilities, true, her voice was never on the same level as Judy's, but her ability to perform a song has always been stronger and better than the voice itself. Debbie managed to score one big hit song (which Judy failed to, chart-wise that is) with "Tammy" which spent several of weeks at the top of the charts. This "Best Of" showcases some of Debbie's beautiful interpretations of old classics such as, "Hooray for Love" a stunning rendition of "Mean to Me" and a cute version of "Moon Glow". I saw Debbie perform live this last year and her voice is considerably stronger than it is here, I think it has something to do with the songs performed here, I don't think Debbie had any say in what songs to sing here. At the concert she performed a stunning "Judy Garland Tribute" which argues that she was every inch her rival when it comes to staying power, funny as Judy is no longer among us. Definitely recommended.
 Simply The Best! July 9, 2004

I have seen Debbie many times and met her a lot. She is the most down to earth lady. She is such a sweetheart. Her voice is beautiful and clear. I know she is mainly known for her acting but I would to have more music from Debbie. Every song on this cd is sung to perfection as only Debbie can do, she takes a song and makes it her own. Debbie Reynolds is simply the best ever.

Debbie is best remembered as an actress, but she had a major transatlantic hit, Tammy, which opens this short but high quality collection. Indeed, it is the only reason I bought this collection as British label Jasmine released a twofer that contains most of the songs here and many more besides.The songs are generally taken from the Great American Songbook, though Debbie occasionally recorded country songs here too, adapting them to her own style. Am I that easy to forget (Skeeter Davis) provided Debbie with an American top twenty pop hit. Among the classic songs included here are Moonglow, Hooray for love and Time after time. This collection is dominated by love ballads, but not limited to them, as Aba daba honeymoon demonstrates. If you enjoy music by Peggy Lee, Julie London, Jeri Southern and others like them, give Debbie a listen.

I think this CD is great. It covers some of Debbie's great hits and some others that are just as good. Last summer I went and saw Debbie in concert and I got it autographed. For anyone who's a Debbie fan, this is the CD to own.
I believe that this album was put out before its time. July 5, 1999

This album is wonderful. Debbie is a terrific singer. I only wish that she was born later so we could appreciate her talent and voice.
