  As a person with musical tastes that stretch from Handel to John Lennon I still find a special place for this man.Dean Martin certainly is the king of cool.This compilation showcases his wonderful smooth voice superbly with an excellent cross section of songs.From the opening 'Gentle On My Mind' and onwards to the catchy 'You're Nobody 'Til Sombody Loves You' to the ending 'Everybody Loves Somebody' this album is class.The ultimate 'crooner' selection but with that Dino touch to each song.My own favourite... more info

• A sheer delight!
  In my record/cd collection, I have stacks and stacks of Sinatra and Tony Bennett, etc but only one Dean Martin tape....a very old one. I recently saw the outstanding "Rat Pack" in London and was reminded of the great songs Dean recorded. I've had this cd for a week and it's brilliant. If you are hesitating as to whether or not you should buy it...DON'T! Twenty one excellent tunes sung in that irresistible style....I've been singing them all week!

  Dean Martin had two separate hit-making periods - in the fifties with Capitol and in the sixties with Reprise. The early sixties were not successful in the charts, although Dean continued to record albums and was also kept busy in other ways. You would normally have to buy one album to get his Capitol music and another to get his Reprise music. This collection spans both periods, although there is also a second volume, so you may end up buying two CD's anyway.

  This collection contains most of the songs... more info
