Love Again - The Lost Columbia Masters

She was born Florencia Bisenta de Casillas Martinez Cardona in El Paso, Texas, but the world would know her better as Vikki Carr, the four-time Grammy-winner whom no less an authority than Dean Martin once called The best girl singer in the business and Ethel Merman singled out as being more impressed with her performance than by any young singer.

Sentimental, vivacious and stunningly dramatic, the voice of Vikki Carr is one of American pop music s most versatile, too. During her long, glittering career, she has tackled jazz, pop, blues and country with equal aplomb. In addition to her extraordinary American pop music career of the 1960s and early 70s, punctuated by such signature hits as It Must Be Him, The Lesson, With Pen in Hand and Eternity, Carr has gone on to become one of the most popular and successful Spanish-language singers in the world, a pioneer predating Linda Ronstadt and an acolyte of Eydie Gorme s and Connie Francis beloved international music tradition.

We at Real Gone Music are thrilled to add Vikki to our reissue artist roster with Love Again The Lost Columbia Masters, which offers no less than 17 unreleased sides including a complete unissued 1975 album plus scintillating versions of such country-tinged pop tunes as The Sun Ain t Gonna Shine Anymore and The End of the World. The release features notes by David St. Mark drawn from an extensive interview with the artist herself as well as her colleagues. Mastered at Sony s own Battery Studios in NYC and featuring copious rare photos one of this year s big pop vocal finds!
