〕 }} ''Let's Face the Music'' is the sixth Shirley Bassey studio album, released in 1962, and arranged by Nelson Riddle. Kenneth Hume, Shirley Bassey's husband and manager wrote the sleeve notes for this album, in which he gives an insight into how this album came to being: "When Vic Lewis booked Nelson Riddle for a tour with Shirley, we were all very excited; being great fans of Nelson Riddle's from way back...so when someone suggested them doing an LP together, we thought that this would not be possible, remembering that Nelson was under contract with another recording company."〔Kenneth Hume, sleeve notes, original LP, Let's Face the Music〕 Nelson Riddle was under contract to Capitol Records at the time, so Bassey's producer Norman Newell went about to secure his services for an album. While on the tour, Bassey, Riddle, and Bassey's music director Raymond Long discussed what form the album should take. Shortly after the tour was completed, the recording sessions began.〔 This album was issued in the US as ''Shirley Bassey Sings The Hit Song From "Oliver!" '' on the United Artists label, with a slightly different track listing and alternative recordings. "I Can't Get You Out of My Mind" was replaced by "As Long As He Needs Me", and "Imagination", "All of Me" and "All the Things You Are" appear on ''Oliver!'' in alternative versions. The alternative versions have not yet been released in the UK and are still not available on CD. The UK album was re-issued in 1971 as ''What Now My Love'' on the EMI Music For Pleasure (MFP) label, it reached number 17 in the UK album charts. The original album was issued in mono and stereo. The stereo version of this album was released on CD in 1999 by EMI. The album was reissued on CD (7243 4 732226 2 4) by EMI in 2004 as part of the "60s 2on1" series - featuring 2 albums on 1 CD. The album was paired with the 1961 album "Shirley". However, for this reissue, due to the time restrictions of placing 2 albums on a single CD, "I Should Care" and "The Second Time Around" from "Let's Face The Music" were omitted. ==Track listing== U.K. Version.
