About

Following-up her comeback album Something, this proved to be almost as big when it too made the UK top 10, peaking at No.7. The album contained the hit single "(Where Do I Begin?) Love Story" as well as a non-charting second release "Breakfast in Bed". The success of this album and Shirley Bassey in general at this period saw a rush of compilations and older albums entering the UK charts in late 1971, with five albums appearing over the space of three months.
