This is the same torrent that was uploaded to Demonoid in August 2011. Petula Clark - The Classic Collection (1997) (4 CDs) http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51NNl3dGOJL._SL500_AA300_.jpg Includes: Files by track, ripped at FLAC 8 using Easy CD-DA Extractor (www.poikosoft.com) DVD-ROM: LG GDR816B Tracks have full tags (including embedded thumbnail) AMG Bio.txt AMG Review.txt info.txt (which is simply these notes included in the torrent) First biography paragraph from All Music (by Jason Ankeny): The most commercially successful female singer in British chart history, Petula Clark was born November 15, 1932 in Epsom, England. Trained to sing by her soprano mother, Clark embarked on a stage career at the age of seven; soon she was a fixture on British radio programs, and began hosting her own regular show, Pet's Parlour -- a series spotlighting patriotic songs designed to boost the morale of wartime audiences -- at the tender age of 11. Read all of the bio at: http://www.allmusic.com/artist/petula-clark-p3912/biography All Music Album Review (by Richie Unterberger): Four-CD, 80-song box set of Clark's '60s material contains all of her big U.S. and U.K. hits, numerous singles that were only hits in other countries (usually France), and a bunch of interesting covers, B-sides, and LP tracks, some quite rare. If you're enough of a fan to want more than what you'll find on the usual thorough hits anthology, but not enough of a fan to want everything she ever did, this is perfect. It's got all of the classics, serviceable (although not terribly extensive) liner notes, and a host of interesting items that aren't well-known. These include a 1963 version of "Please Please Me" (sung in French) that was most likely one of the very first Lennon-McCartney covers; a French-sung cover of "Nobody I Know," the Lennon-McCartney tune never done by the Beatles, although Peter & Gordon had a hit with it; the original versions of "I Will Follow Him" (in English and French), covered for a chart-topper by Little Peggy March in the U.S.; yet another French-sung British Invasion cover, of the Kinks' "Well Respected Man," that was a hit in Canada; and "You're the One" (covered for a hit by the Vogues in the States). Best of all is the mid-'60s B-side "Heart" (covered by the Remains in America), a Clark original that's her hardest-rocking cut, and proof that she could muster the energy to sing rock & roll convincingly on occasion.

Hard to believe she's over 80! Seems like only a few years ago I first bought "Downtown" on 45 RPM. Hmm, I guess I just gave away my age!
Thanks for this terrific collection!
