An under rated seventies country queen
Kundenrezension aus den USA 🇺🇸 am 25. Mai 2003
Note that this review (like all the others) is listed under Best of (Curb) as well as Best of (MCA) They are very different compliations so I will discuss both.
Donna took some time to make a breakthrough as a singer or songwriter, during which time she worked as a schoolteacher. After she wrote and recorded Happiest girl in the whole USA, things happened very quickly. That song became a top ten American pop hit as well as a country number one. The follow-up, Funny face, did likewise. That was the end of Donna's pop hits, but she had many more country hits during the seventies.
Superman, You were always there and You can't be a beacon if your light don't shine all became country number one hits, while Little girl gone, I'll try a little bit harder, U S of A, It do feel good and Don't be angry provided Donna with further top ten country hits.
Donna's songs were mostly happy and upbeat, but she could do the weepies too - listen to her rendition of Manhattan Kansas (one of the few songs on these compilations that she didn't write). Perhaps the most famous song here is Heartbreak hotel. Donna's cover of this Elvis classic does not match the original, but I enjoy it, although I am aware that some people can't stand this version. You must make up your own mind.
She switched record labels (to Warner) in 1976 and her later recordings are on the Curb compilation (which also includes Funny face and Happiest girl in the whole USA from earlier), with the exception of a gospel album recorded for MCA in 1981, represented on the MCA compilation by Say I do.
Her Warner music is also excellent. I particulary like Somebody special, but Shame on me and Ragamuffin man are among the other highlights.
Donna has never been well represented on CD, but she had a more distinctive style and voice than most. The lady with the chuckle in her voice deserves better.

Best of her ABC/Dot Hits
Kundenrezension aus den USA 🇺🇸 am 13. September 2001
After a few false starts on small labels, Donna Fargo arrived on the country charts in 1972 and went straight to the top. She combined the relentless exhuberance of Dolly Parton, the quiver of Tammy Wynette, and especially, the vocal sound of Loretta Lynn. Unlike those country queens, she was also able to cross over to the pop top 10 as well with her first two hits "Happiest Girl In The Whole USA" and "Funny Face." The major pop success was short-lived, but Fargo would become a major fixture on the country charts throughout the '70s. This eighteen-track set nicely covers Fargo's best work on the ABC/Dot label (1972-1976).
All of her ABC/Dot singles are found here, in chronological order, along with a few album tracks. After her initial pair of perky mega-hit singles, Fargo wisely added a little sarcasm with her follow-up "Superman." She also effectively merged country and gospel with "You Can't Be A Beacon (If Your Light Don't Shine)". "U.S. of A." provided a patriotic slant, but her predominant theme was domestic bliss.
Fargo impressively wrote most of the songs on this collection. One that she didn't write (that kept the set from receiving five stars from me) is her shrieking version of Elvis Presley's "Heartbreak Hotel." How bad is this recording? Threaten to play it when your kids don't want to study and you should see their grades dramatically improve. The rest of the tracks found here are quite fine, though. Hopefully, Warner Brothers (or Rhino) will someday put out a companion piece covering Fargo's late '70s hits. Regardless, this set has Fargo's very best work.

One of the Best
Kundenrezension aus den USA 🇺🇸 am 17. Februar 2011
I have just purchased this cd via a seller on amazon market place. I have been a fan of Donna Fargo since I was a teenager, some 40 years ago. I did have a vinyl copy of her 1st album "The Happiest Girl in the Whole USA". Unfortunately I gave this away, thinking that I would replace it with a cd of the same. No such luck!!! I note similar comments from other fans asking why the original song selections on the vinyl album have not been released on cd? The cd currently being advertised for sale and supporting this title does not contain the original song selection. However this best of cd, which is unfortunately out of print has an excellent selection of Donna's best tracks. She was a leading lady of country/pop music in the 1970's and her voice/songs, still stand up well in the music of today. Let us hope that her original song selection will be remastered onto cd for her fans to enjoy.
