Information from VeryCD:
安妮•莫莉（Anne Murray）1946年6月20日出生于加拿大的新斯科舍的一个医生家庭。 Anne从小就受到当地颇有名望的音乐人士的启蒙教育，她常自弹自唱，并以此为乐。 尽管如此，她还是认为音乐只是一项娱乐。 直到1964年的某一天，有人劝她去听一下一个电视专栏节目“Sing Along Jubilee”， 而Anne却选择另一档节目“Let's Go”来欣赏，这个由 Bill Langstroth（她后来的丈夫）主持的节目深深吸引了她，使她走上了以音乐为伴的人生之路.
Anne走的是民谣摇滚的路线，她将节奏与布鲁斯和主流流行乐的风格兼容并蓄在自己的歌曲中。1968年，由 Arc唱片公司出版的《What About Me》引起Capital 唱片公司的极大兴趣，他们立即将Anne作为长期签约歌手纳入门下, 且推出了Anne唱片《This Was My May》,它凭借优美的曲调和动人演绎闯入Billboard Top 10，接着Anne又推出了《Talk It Over In The Morning》，也取得不错的成绩。1973年 Anne 又与Kenny Loggers 联袂演绎的 Danny 作品《Nobody Loves Me Like You Do》,获得了巨大成功，稳入排行榜前列。1978年Anne又凭藉《You Needed Me》荣获了葛莱美奖。 当《Daydream Believer》 又一次叱咤流行乐坛时，Anne的歌唱实力得到充分的证明。接着《He Thinks I Still Care》、《Just Another Woman In Love》 和 《Could I Have This Dance》的陆续推出，又使Anne流行于欧美乐坛.
除了对音乐的热爱之外，Anne还有着一份慈爱之心，她多次将版权收入赠送给加拿大儿童慈善基金会。1989年Springhill's Anne Murray Center正式开放，以此感谢她为慈善事业作出的贡献。
Editorial Reviews from Amazon:
Not exactly a country artist, since her records lack twang, and too casual and intimate to make for a standard-issue MOR pop performer, Anne Murray's phenomenally warm, smooth voice has nevertheless secured a lofty place for her in both categories--and has occasionally brought her into the mainstream (read: traditionally rock and soul dominated) pop arena. If you're not a fan, or much of a country enthusiast, it's her '70s pop hits that'll make the package worthwhile. "Snowbird" is here, as is "You Needed Me." If you are a fan, or are looking for songs that hit only on the country or Canadian charts, there'll be a lot of key stuff missing.
Tracks:
01. Snowbird
02. Now and Forever (You and Me)
03. Danny's Song
04. Nobody Loves Me Like You Do
05. Love Song
06. Time Don't Run Out on Me
07. You Won't See Me
08. Just Another Woman in Love
09. You Needed Me
10. Little Good News
11. I Just Fall in Love Again
12. Somebody's Always Saying Goodbye
13. Broken Hearted Me
14. Could I Have This Dance
15. Daydream Believer
16. Another Sleepless Night
17. Shadows in the Moonlight
18. Blessed Are the Believers
19. Make Love to Me
20. Over You
I recommend... oh, every song is so excellent, you should listen them all.
But still, "You Needed Me" is the best among them. "Somebody's Always Saying Goodbye", "Over You" are also very good.
