'''''The Waltz Queen''''' is an [[LP album]] by [[Patti Page]]. The album was originally issued in October 1957 as a [[Gramophone record|vinyl LP]].<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Page |first1=Patti |title=''The Waltz Queen'' (Disc Information) |journal=[[Mercury Records]] |date=October 1957 |id=MG-20318}}</ref>
It was reissued by [[Universal Records]] in [[2007 in music|2007]] in [[compact disc]] form under catalog number 9349. It should not be confused with an [[The Waltz Queen (Patti Page 1958 album)|album of the same name]] released by Mercury's [[Wing Records]] subsidiary in [[1960 in music|1960]] under catalog numbers MGW-12121 and SRW-16121, with all different songs.<ref>[https://www.discogs.com/Patti-Page-The-Waltz-Queen/release/3792874 See listing here]</ref>
The original mono of ''The Waltz Queen'' was issued under the title ''Waltzes Bring Memories'' with a different cover as MG-20049. It didn't sell so the new title and cover were created but the same catalog number used.{{Citation needed|date=May 2020}} The mono version in its original release included one image of the artist on the cover; in its reissue it featured two images of the artist, the same as the stereo version.
[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]] reviewed the album on March 17, 1958, saying: “Exceptionally strong packaging. The gal has never been better than in this creamy, nostalgic selection of three-beater favorites like “What’ll I Do,” “Till We Meet Again,” “The Boy Next Door”,” etc. Excellent backings by Vic Schoen and ork. Several bands here are worthy of singles exposure and the entire set should set a brisk pace at the counter.”<ref>{{cite journal |title=Billboard |date=March 17, 1958 |page=15}}</ref>
