Gertie
Gitana, billed as "The Star that never fails to shine" had
a sweet voice and was said to have something of a flighty manner. A
pretty and feminine lady, she enjoyed a cult following.
Her best known song "Nellie Dean" is here presented in two versions,
the first before it became something of a drunkard's anthem. Many of
the other songs with which she is associated are included on this 23
track CD.
