Reviews

This 2 CD set from the Vigotone label comes with a 36 page booklet, and contains a compilation of outtakes from the 1956-58 era. All the songs has been released before on several other imports. The quality is pretty good, and the binaural songs from the January '57 sessions are a little better on this release then on the Stereo '57 Vol 1 & 2 CD releases. The songs "Peace in the valley", "That's when your heartache begin", and "I beg of you" are not in binaural stereo but in mono. For the fans who don't have the other Import CD's like the "There's always me" releases, this is a very good substitute.
