Yet Another New CD
I have just spotted on the HMV website another new CD by Ruby - this one is innovatively called "Softly, Softly". It is on the XTRA label, due for release next month, and the track listing appears to be another re-arrangement of old favourites: 1. Softly Softly 2. What Could Be More Beautiful? 3. He...

Bernie, we all should add our thanks to you for YOUR tireless efforts this year. I am certain that however hard any of us might have tried to mark Ruby's Golden Year properly, it was the signature of "Bernie Burgess" on the bottom of each letter that had the desired effect. Speaking for myself, I wa...

This is because they have not been available in good quality direct-from-the-masters on CD before. The missing one is "Let ...

Got it! "Oh I mind when I left her, for to cross o'er the sea, for to try and make a fortune, for Mary and me".
