So popular was she in the early '50s that she twice had four records in the Top 10 simultaneously. She brought country material into the pop chart, making the Top 5 with \"Your Cheatin' Heart\" while it's composer, Hank Williams, was topping the country chart, and she helped introduce the \"concept\" album with her first LP \"Let There Be Love\". Indeed, she was one of the first artists to concentrate on the album market, successfully releasing at least four a year through the '50s, including her \"100 Strings \u0026amp; Joni\" series, recorded at London's Abbey Road studios. She suddenly retired from the business in the early '60s to look after her seriously ill husband, but has returned to performing in recent decades. This great value 54-track collection focuses on her singles, and includes all the 40 or more A and B sides which made one or other configuration of the charts, plus selected other A sides, including tracks which came from the then current album releases. It's a highly entertaining showcase for an artist who has perhaps not received the global recognition she merits.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eTracksCredits\u003cbr\u003e- Disc 1 -\u003cbr\u003e1 Let There Be Love\u003cbr\u003e2 You Belong to Me\u003cbr\u003e3 Why Don't You Believe Me'\u003cbr\u003e4 Purple Shades\u003cbr\u003e5 You're My Everything\u003cbr\u003e6 Have You Heard'\u003cbr\u003e7 Wishing Ring\u003cbr\u003e8 Your Cheatin' Heart\u003cbr\u003e9 BW I'll Be Waiting for You (Non-Album Track)\u003cbr\u003e10 Almost Always\u003cbr\u003e11 Is It Any Wonder\u003cbr\u003e12 My Love, My Love\u003cbr\u003e13 You're Fooling Someone\u003cbr\u003e14 I'll Never Stand in Your Way\u003cbr\u003e15 Why Can't I\u003cbr\u003e16 Nina Noni\u003cbr\u003e17 Maybe Next Time\u003cbr\u003e18 Am I in Love\u003cbr\u003e19 In a Garden of Roses\u003cbr\u003e20 Every Day\u003cbr\u003e21 Mama Don't Cry at My Wedding\u003cbr\u003e22 Pa Pa Pa\u003cbr\u003e23 When We Come of Age\u003cbr\u003e24 The Moment I Saw You\u003cbr\u003e25 Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas\u003cbr\u003e26 How Important Can It Be'\u003cbr\u003e27 Is This the End of the Line\u003cbr\u003e28 Disc 2:\u003cbr\u003e- Disc 2 -\u003cbr\u003e1 When You Wish Upon a Star\u003cbr\u003e2 You Are My Love\u003cbr\u003e3 My Believing Heart\u003cbr\u003e4 Don't Tell Me Not to Love You\u003cbr\u003e5 I Woke Up Crying\u003cbr\u003e6 Give Us This Day\u003cbr\u003e7 How Lucky You Are\u003cbr\u003e8 Love Letters\u003cbr\u003e9 Danny Boy\u003cbr\u003e10 Only Trust Your Heart\u003cbr\u003e11 Summer Love\u003cbr\u003e12 There Goes My Heart\u003cbr\u003e13 There Must Be a Way\u003cbr\u003e14 I Still Get a Thrill\u003cbr\u003e15 I Still Get Jealous\u003cbr\u003e16 Are You Sorry'\u003cbr\u003e17 Little Things Mean a Lot\u003cbr\u003e18 I Laughed at Love\u003cbr\u003e19 I Need You Now\u003cbr\u003e20 We Know\u003cbr\u003e21 My Last Date (With You)\u003cbr\u003e22 Be My Love\u003cbr\u003e23 I Gave My Love\u003cbr\u003e24 I Almost Lost My Mind\u003cbr\u003e25 Tender and True\u003cbr\u003e26 You Are My Sunshine\u003cbr\u003e27 Anyone But Her\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: NEW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: EASY LISTENING\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Type: 2XCD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Joni James","offers":[{"title":"- EASY LISTENING *NEW*","offer_id":66726092341363,"sku":"E0BBAC-AKVU-00","price":21.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0500\/7837\/files\/easy-listening-new_2gVgl.jpg?v=1790545500","url":"https:\/\/www.lovevinylrecords.com\/products\/joni-james-very-best-of-joni-james-1951-62-all-hits-more-2xcd-new","provider":"Love Vinyl Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
