Best of Betty Everett: Let It Be Me

by Betty Everett

Overview

This collection includes duets with Jerry Butler, the block-busting "(Shoop Shoop Song (It's in His Kiss)," and the two very likable tracks "I Can't Hear You" and "It's Getting Mighty Crowded." The rest are good releases that have failed to attract much attention, including a remake of the Temptations' "The Way You Do the Things You Do." This set concentrates on Everett's Vee Jay sides and omits the favored "There Come a Time" recorded later. Every cut is more than competent, the productions are topnotch all the way. ~ Andrew Hamilton
