McGuire Sisters: Greatest Hits

 

mcguire sisters

The McGuire Sisters made more great records than you might think. The people at Coral understood perfectly the trio's harmonies, inventiveness and ability to do anything from the most dramatic ballad to the nutsiest novelty with style and appeal. Dick Jacobs' orchestrations was the fourth Sister in a way and the ladies usually were recorded in the same place--a temple in New York City with fantastic acoustics. The McGuires approached recordings creatively--they were about much more than hits (their albums prove that). They got out at least four dozen single sides worth hearing--the best of it is all here, beautifully mastered and still great.
