Excellent retrospective
Unlike many Best of CD's this one crosses her entire recording career and labels. It includes scratchy tracks from 1935 up to pristine recording in 1958. This is about as good primer of her career as you can expect. Furthermore, it isn't marred by an overly bright or compressed sound that you often find in some modern remasters. My only complaint and the main reason I'm writing this review is that the jewel case is essentially useless. The discs no matter how I try, do not stay within the spindle. It's beyond me how any record company can use such a defective case design. It's really annoying.
