Our Take

Blimey, I must say, Jeri Southern's Singles & Albums Collection 1951-59 is an absolute corker of an album! This compilation takes you on a jolly good journey through Southern's varied career, from her early singles to her later albums – it's a proper treat for the ears.

Southern's voice is as smooth as a cup of afternoon tea, and her interpretations of classic tunes are as delightful as a scone with jam and cream. Tracks like "You Better Go Now" and "An Occasional Man" showcase her incredible vocal range and emotional depth, while her jazzy takes on standards like "I Concentrate on You" and "Where Walks My True Love" are simply smashing.

The production on this collection is top-notch, with each track sounding crisp and clear – it's like having front row seats at a swanky jazz club. And with over 50 songs to choose from, there's something for every mood, whether you're feeling as chipper as a cricket or as blue as a rainy day in London.

So put on your best tweed jacket, pour yourself a cuppa, and let Jeri Southern serenade you with her enchanting melodies. This album is a proper gem, and a must-listen for any fan of classic jazz and good ol' fashioned crooning. Cheerio!
