Great Collection of Songs We bought this a couple of years ago and is still one of my most listen to album. This is a fun up-beat album.
Deano the voice
I could go on about sound quality etc. Excellent CD with many of his greatest songs. but just know you'll have moneys worth X ten. .
Memories Are Made of This
" Excellent liner notes - and a personal message from Dino acknowledging his 50th anniversary in show business - make this collection a keeper. Released in 1989, this 20-track overview of Dean Martin's Capitol Records period has all the essential hits from 1948 to 1960, including lesser-known gems such as "Powder Your Face With Sunshine," "You Belong to Me," "I'd Cry Like a Baby" and "Money Burns a Hole in My Pocket. .
The full color of Dean Martin
It's a greatest hits collection from the Capitol years (probably about 1948-1960), when Dean was younger and his style was more varied. If you've never heard of Dean Martin, this Cd is the one to get you started. He signed on with Reprise from about 1960 to 1983 and made a ton of records, but the Reprise songs tend to sound pretty much the same after a while. The Capitol recordings capture Dean's tenderness, warmth and even jazziness. For example, "Love Me My Love", a relatively lesser-known Dean Martin song is wonderfully delicate and beautiful; and Dean bellies his crooner image and really wails it out on "Ain't That a Kick in the Head". "Watching the World Go By" and "Memories are Made of This" are also creative arrangements that exhibit nice harmonies. There are also a few Italian numbers such as "Volare" and "Return to Me".
In my mind, this CD best reveals the full color of Dean Martin.
