Title: Hidden treasures
Review: Who'd suspect Lesley Gore, beyond all those hit singles, had recorded for Mercury intriguing unknown song after intriguing unknown song, all produced intriguingly with intriguing orchestrations, intriguing production and in some cases intriguing alternate versions? I plunked down the money for the 5-C Bear set (and then didn't eat for a while so I could afford it) when I friend tipped me off about it. This has got to be the biggest hidden treasure in the history of American pop. There's even an entire unreleased album tucked in her and even sessions for a jazz album of standard tunes. Gore does EVERYTHING with intelligence and panache. This goes WAY beyond lollipops and roses; it's musical champagne.
Is the review positive or negative?
