Collection (CD)

2008 three-CD celebration of four decades of Dame Shirley Bassey. Features 60 tracks including hits such as 'Goldfinger', 'Big Spender', 'Diamonds Are Forever' and 'Something', along with some harder to find items. Two songs from her 1962 collaboration with legendary conductor Nelson Riddle are included, along with several titles from her much sought-after 1976 album the Magic Is You. She doffs her cap to Frank Sinatra with 'My Way' and to Perry Como with 'It's Impossible', perhaps the only inappropriate title in her repertoire because for Dame Shirley, seemingly anything is possible. EMI Gold.
