Title: I love this and I'm not even a Fleming fan
Review: I had never caught the Fleming bug before. I always found her voice to be grand and luxurious but with zero personality or drama. 100 per cent calories from fat, so to speak (musically speaking). Her rendition of "Bailero" on the "Beautiful Voice" disk is the musical equivalent of pouring hot fudge sauce on a garden salad. But on this disk Fleming sings grand opera lollipops that really cry out for a gorgeous voice that can fill a huge space, especially in the hits from La Wally, Puccini, and the French operas. The first couple of tracks are tremendous. In the Verdi, on the other hand, I prefer the new collection by Gheorgiu because of her greater fire and personality.
