Great Memories From A Great Lady!.......2003-06-11

We have owned a copy of the LP of this album for probably 50 years and it's still in decent shape! However, the clarity of the CD is even better. These songs evoke the warmest and most pleasant memories.

Ruby Wright appeared on the Ruth Lyons television show in the greater Cincinnati area on WLWT during the 1950's & 60's. I believe she retired in the early 70's and she lives in Cincinnati. She use to make occasional reunion appearences in the 80's and 90's. I have never met her, but my family and I watched her everyday during those years. She is the epitome of class, elegance, and beauty. Her most famous local song, written by Ruth Lyons, was "Let's Light The Christmas Tree." She also had a national hit entitled "Thanks for the Buggy Ride." (These last two songs do not appear on this album, but several other great ones do!).

I guarantee that you'll love this CD. It's perfect for the Big Band lover or for anyone who grew up listening to Ruby Wright in the Cincinnati, Columbus, Dayton, Indianapolis, area in the 1950's! Thank you for the opportunity to review this CD performed by a true lady!

Marvelous "unknown" singer.......2002-03-19

A lovely vocalist with a voice and style as clear as a mountain stream. A US singer, whose records were hits in the UK, Ruby Wright was the wife and vocalist of bandleader Barney Rapp - the man who presented Doris Day & Rosie Clooney to us first. Ruby could have been as big as either of those 2 girls, but my guess is since she recorded for the relatively small King label, she wasn't better known. Great arrangements of lesser-known pop tunes & a few standards. Ruby passed away in 2004, but we have this highly entertaing disc to remember her by.
