Bombshells / Various Bombshells / Various CD

UK two CD collection that features 40 of the most enduring blondes, brunettes and redheads to ever slither across the silver screen. Once upon a time an aspiring actress who could dance, act and sing was referred to as a "triple threat" and in theory the more proficient she was at one or all of them the more likely she would garner work. This collection focuses on those very same vocal attributes and while some of these gals certainly sang better than others they all looked pretty darn good trying. Includes tracks from American starlets such as Marilyn Monroe, Ava Gardner, Dolores Gray and Betty Grable as well as international stars such as English Goddess Diana Dors, the Spanish flower Sarita Montiel and Italian sirens Sophia Loren and Pier Angeli and many others.
