This is a new 2CD amalgam of the separate twofers which Real Gone put out back in 2013:
Description There was a lot of competition in the mid-‘60s for the title of America’s Most Popular Teenager, but a convincing case can be made that Patty Duke was IT. In 1962, at the age of 16, she became the youngest actress ever to win an Academy Award for her portrayal of Helen Keller in the film The Miracle Worker, a role she originated on Broadway. Then, in 1963, she was given her own series, The Patty Duke Show, in which she played two different leading roles of “identical cousins” (an ironic circumstance given Patty’s bouts of manic depression and her later championing of the cause). Like so many teen stars before and after her, stardom on television quickly translated into a recording contract and appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show, Shindig! and The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, resulting in four albums for United Artists, all of which we are reissuing with bonus tracks. Don’t Just Stand There and Patty came out in 1965 and 1966, respectively; besides the first album’s Top Ten title track, they included the hits “Say Something Funny” and “Whenever She Holds You” (we’ve included another hit, “Funny Little Butterflies,” as a bonus track). 1967’s Sings Songs from Valley of the Dolls was a darker, more mature album as befitting her controversial role in the film Valley of the Dolls; we’ve paired that album with the never-before released album of folk songs she recorded with United Artists in 1968. All four albums are taken from the original master tapes; they feature additional photos and liner notes with quotes from Patty Duke herself. Long-lost music from one of the truly iconic figures in ‘60s pop culture. Tracklist [CD1] 1. Don't Just Stand There 2. Why Don't They Understand 3. Downtown 4. Danke Schöen 5. Everything but Love 6. A World Without Love 7. Say Something Funny 8. Too Young 9. What the World Needs Now Is Love 10. Save Your Heart for Me 11. Ribbons & Roses 12. The End of the World 13. Funny Little Butterflies 14. Lonely Little In-Between 15. The World Is Watching Us 16. Yesterday 17. All Through the Day 18. Whenever She Holds You 19. Little Things Mean a Lot 20. One Kiss Away 21. I Love How You Love Me 22. Sure Gonna Miss Him 23. All I Have to Do Is Dream 24. Nothing but You [CD2] 1. It's Impossible 2. Come Live with Me 3. Give a Little More 4. I'll Plant My Own Tree 5. Theme from Valley of the Dolls 6. My Own Little Place 7. Half-Hearted Kisses 8. Roses Are Red 9. A Million Things to Do 10. Forever Yours 11. Learn to Live with Your Heartbreak 12. I Want Your Love 13. Colors 14. The Cruel War 15. The Best Is Yet to Come 16. And We Were Strangers 17. Puff the Magic Dragon 18. The Bells of Rhymney 19. Time to Move On 20. Dona, Dona 21. Shine for Me 22. The Housewife's Lament 23. Johnny, I Hardly Knew Ye 24. Blowin' in the Windhttp://www.amazon.com/dp/B01FLBNVI0/?tag=imwan-20

I probably mentioned this three years ago, but "The Best Of Patty Duke: Just Patty", released in 1996, included two songs not on either of these discs ("Seven Day Wonder" and "A Girl Is A Girl") plus some studio chatter and both versions of the PDS theme song. Still, both of these discs are well done. Through some online offer that has faded from memory, I pre-ordered both of these and my copy of "Don't Just Stand There/Patty" asrrived with an autograph. I'm still kind of depressed, not so much that Patty Duke has died, but that she died of sepsis, which is about as horrible a cause of death that there is.
