Product Details

Connie Francis ruled the charts from the late 1950s into the mid-1960s with a run of hits that made her the best-selling female recording artist of that era, and her MGM film work was a natural extension of that dominance. Hollywood knew exactly what it had in her, casting Francis repeatedly as the wholesome yet emotionally direct center of a string of youth-oriented pictures that captured early-'60s pop culture at its most buoyant. These recordings document a specific, fleeting moment when teen pop and Hollywood still believed in each other completely.

This 1st comprehensive set of movie music by pop's #1 female vocalist in the era between Doris Day and Janis Joplin contains 24 tracks recorded for and/or performed in the '60s MGM films Where the Boys Are, Follow the Boys, Looking for Love and When the Boys Meet the Girls. Highlights: 3 previously unissued cuts from Where the Boys Are (including main title and finale - Connie's single version was a Top 5 smash), plus Connie's rare original "Italian Lullabye" (Follow the Boys) and 8 previously unissued tracks from Looking for Love.
