Debut album from the young 'Little Miss Dynamite' Brenda Lee, who would become one of the top female pop vocalists during the first half of the 1960s. Contains the top twenty hits Sweet Nothin’s, I’m Sorry, and Let’s Jump The Broomstick. (US:5)
“For listeners searching for a title to expand their knowledge of Lee beyond the usual hits compilations, this disc functions very well. It has a raft of hits and great performances.”
“Little Miss Dynamite shows how quickly she found her own style given the right material.”
“Brenda Lee was a torch singer who could somehow project emotions she was too young to have ever really experienced. She represented music for and by teenagers.”
“With 1957's Dynamite, pint-sized 12-year-old Brenda Lee earned her nickname Little Miss Dynamite. Her first top-tenner, 1960's Sweet Nothin's, with confidential sounding whispered intro, yakkety sax solo, and Lee's vocals shifting from gutsy to kittenish, set the stage for her becoming one of the decade's top-charting solo female singers.”
“What a great singer. Just love to hear her tear up a song. Commanding voice, so strong for such a tiny lady.”
“I remember when I’m Sorry came out and it was so popular that we will always associate this lady with this beautiful song, as hers and hers alone, a very powerful voice - love it.”
“A tremendous talent that was not recognized by the music industry as much as she should have been.”
