 magical January 14, 2012 By rudy cornejo See All My Reviews "This recording is superb, with performances that transcends the original to new heights. Adele Leigh will take your breath away with her incredibly passionate "Baubles, bangles.., Stranger in Paradise.., And This Is My Beloved". The supporting characters are also in character to the max! Mantovani's arrangements are highlighted with the "Phase4 Stereo" recording. A masterpiece by London. They just don't record them like that anymore. ZERO distortion and no booming bass or shrill highs." Report Abuse
