ah! we are both right..from her Bio: "Born in El Paso, Texas, and raised in the San Gabriel Valley of California, Vikki Carr, the eldest of seven children, began performing at the tender age of four singing Adeste Fidelis in Latin at a Christmas program."..As I said from Rosemead, Cal
@irvingklaw57 Maybe born! But I use to see her in Rosemead, Cal way back in the 70's and 80's. I think her mother, at the time, lived in Rosemead and was always with my aunt at the Rest, my Aunt was from Columbus, NM. But, occassionally I see Viki at my Aunts Mexican Resturant in Rosemead. I even said hello to her, attractive lady. Las Cruces is south of me, I currently live in Abq now. My Aunt and the Resturant are long gone. So she could be where your at now. My cousin has sign pics from her.
Ich wuchs bei meiner Großmutter auf. Sie musste zum Ende des Krieges ihre Heimat verlassen, flüchtete nach Westen und die ersten beiden Lieder die sie von den Amerikanern hörte, liebte und nach denen sie tanzte, das waren "sentimental journey" und "dont fence me in".... Ich werde heute noch ganz sentimental wenn ich diese wunderbaren Lieder höre und mich an meine zauberhafte Großmutter erinnere.....!!!
From the beginning, Vikki Carr was one Hell of a singer. Everything in place--power, intonation, pitch and a real love of and sympathy with lyrics. A big career was certain for her.

How's that for a backup performance! I think it is safe to say that the 'well of stars' was pretty deep in those days.

Die Doris Day Video´s kann ich in Deutschland nicht anschauen. Wirklich schade. Sie ist ja Deutsche. Trotzdem finde ich die Version von Vikki gut.

When Vikki sings, we all take a sentimental journey. Doris Day would be proud to hear Vikki's take on this song. Just beautiful!
