About Almost Sweet And Gentle [ORIGINAL RECORDINGS
They were raised in Oklahoma. However it was only after they moved to Chicago that they achieved success. By then, they had absorbed pop and jazz influences, and these are the focus of this double CD, although they never lost their roots. There's an old saying, "you can take the singer out of the country, but you can't take the country out of the singer". The only actual country song here is San Antonio rose, but Jasmine have released a separate single CD collection focusing exclusively on the country songs they recorded (JASMCD3551). So this collection contains their four hits "Buttons And Bows", "I Wonder Who's Kissing Her Now", "My Adobe Hacienda" and "Beg Your Pardon", plus other songs identified with them which weren't hits but should have been and covers of standards, and a lot of wonderful songs that you just won't find anywhere else. This is a high quality compilation that deserves to be heard by a lot more people than are ever likely to. During the 1940s the three Dinning Sisters (originally Lou plus twins Ginger and Jean) made name for themselves singing sweet harmonies Andrews Sisters style. This generous 52 track 2CD set includes all of their best known original commercial recordings.
