Sag Mir Wo Die Blumen Sind

? The oft-controversial MARLENE DIETRICH was one of the most charismatic, iconic female figures of the 20th Century.

? She enjoyed two separate careers: initially as a stage and screen actress, starting in Berlin in the 1920s; then in the 1950s, when she was domiciled in the United States, she re-emerged as a successful concert and cabaret artiste, with a highly theatrical one-woman show, devised by her musical director, Burt Bacharach.

? Despite her limited vocal range she possessed perfect timing, and performed songs to maximum dramatic effect.

? This collection presents the very best of her 1950s and early 60s recordings, made variously in the US, the UK, Brazil and West Germany.

? It includes her celebrated duets with Rosemary Clooney, and this compilation's title track, her bleak, German language rendition of Pete Seeger's 'Where Have All The Flowers Gone', which sold a million copies in Europe.
