Music reviews of Collection
Music Review: A very strong hits collection
Rating: 5 Stars
It needs a lot more than eighteen tracks to do full justice to Patti's music but this British budget collection of her fifties music is the strongest available as I write this. Patti was born as Clara Ann Fowler in Oklahoma. Like those other great Oklahoma-born singers of her generation, the Dinning sisters, Patti was steeped in country music tradition but achieved success in pop music although she never forgot her roots.
Patti only had one hit in Britain (How much is that doggie in the window) but might have had more if charts had started earlier than November 1952. Of course, Patti had a lot more success in her homeland, eleven of her hits selling at least a million copies each. They were (in chronological order) With my eyes wide open I'm dreaming (not included on this set), All my love, Tennessee waltz, Would I love you love you love you, Mocking bird hill, Mister and Mississippi, Detour, I went to your wedding, How much is that doggie in the window, Changing partners and Cross over the bridge. So ten of the eleven songs are included and the one that didn't was the lowest-charting hit, peaking at eleven. Exactly how it sold a million without making the top ten is a mystery - it didn't have a long run in the charts.
Apart from those million sellers, Patti had plenty of other hits. Of those included here, Come what may, You belong to me, Why don't you believe me and Steam heat all made the top ten in the period to 1954. As the fifties progressed, Patti found it more difficult to compete against rock'n'roll but still had a few big hits including Let me go lover, Go on with the wedding, Allegheny moon and Old Cape Cod.
Chart students will know that several big hits are missing including I don't care if the sun don't shine, And so to sleep again, Once in awhile and Butterflies, all of which made the top ten, plus others that came close to the top ten. To include all these hits in one compilation would require a double CD.
Of the CD's available at the time of this review, this is the strongest compilation of Patti's music there is. One day, something better might come along but the wait could be a long one.
