The Complete Scepter Singles 1962-1973

The Complete Scepter Singles 1962-1973 offers the A and B-side of every single Dionne cut for the Scepter label (with the bonus inclusion of her single for Musicor featuring the hit 'Only Love Can Break a Heart'), all original, (mostly) mono single versions remastered by Mike Milchner of Sonic Vision from original tape sources and annotated by veteran music journalist and Billboard contributor Paul Grein. Among the 74 (!) tracks on this 3-CD set are some of the most hallowed sides in '60s pop, including 'Don't Make Me Over,' 'Anyone Who Had a Heart,' 'Walk On By,' 'Message to Michael,' '(Theme from) Valley of the Dolls,' 'I Say a Little Prayer,' 'Alfie,' 'Do You Know the Way to San Jose,' 'Trains and Boats and Planes,' 'This Girl's in Love with You,' and 'I'll Never Fall in Love Again.' But really, pretty much every track in this collection is a masterpiece...and remember, the single mixes you're hearing on this collection is exactly what folks thrilled to when they turned on their radio back in the day. A cornerstone of any pop music collection...and a timely tribute coinciding with the release of the new Dionne documentary Don't Make Me Over.
