Special Note: According to information contained in this boxed set, the vocals for all six master Recordings/Bear_Family that Catarina Valente made with Claus Ogermann were done separately in overdub sessions (two tracks were re-recorded to make a 2nd version of each track, making a total of six master Recordings/Bear_Family). There were also Italian versions of these four songs recorded for 45 rpm, presumably overdubbed by Caterina to the original orchestral tracks.

Further Information which applies ONLY to the boxed set: On July 5, 1965 at Teldec Studio in Berlin, Germany, Caterina and Claus Ogermann and his orchestra recorded "Don't Lose Your Head" [master number STE 11445] and "Will He Be There?"[master number STE 11446]. Both were first released on this Bear Family Boxed Set.
On November 16, 1965 at an unknown studio in New York City, Caterina and Claus recorded "Love Me - Or Let Me Go" [master number STE 11712] and "Keep Me In Your Heart" [master number STE 11714]. The latter two were first released on this CD boxed set.
