Great old-time singer, HORRIBLE CD! Do not buy!!!, Dec 31 2004

This review is from: Cocktail Hour (Audio CD)
HOLY SMOKES! Had I known how BAD this CD was going to be, I would have used ear plugs!I don't really blame those who have reviewed this CD before me, but maybe they have not heard Maurice Chevalier at his best. This is the WORST DRIVEL I have EVER had the displeasure of listening to! What's that I hear? STATIC!!! ON THIS CD!!!!! Jeez, give me a break!
OK, I know this is the old stuff, but the Maurice Chevalier music I remember growing up with was MUCH better than this, and I'm talking listening to a 30 year-old LP Album, not a CD!
I suspect that the Producers of this CD wanted to save on paying ROYALTIES to the owners of the BETTER material. I'm guessing that this stuff is "Public Domain", and was free for the Producers to release. So for the cost of a dime to produce, they're raking in close to fifteen dollars when people buy.
DEMAND THE GOOD STUFF and pass on this! Save your money!

AH MAURICE!, Jun 20 2001
By ALAIN ROBERT - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cocktail Hour (Audio CD)
It's always a pleasure to celebrate MOMO who made so many people aware of the FRENCH culture throughout the world.This collection is wonderful;most of it is a reminicence of MAURICE's early years in HOLLYWOOD 1928-1935.It is interesting to notice that many songs here were recorded also in FRENCH.Such is the case with MY LOVE PARADE(mon cocktail d'amour),PARIS,STAY THE SAME(paris,je t'aime d'amour),YOU BROUGHT A NEW KIND OF LOVE TO ME(vous etes mon nouveau bonheur)and JUST A BUM(ma pomme).CHEVALIER also recorded MIMI in both languages.There is one important complaint i have to say:why not mentionning the names of the writers and the composers of the songs?Of course,this is not a good enough reason not to buy this.Maybe they were afraid to paid some of the writers and composers who are still alive.Not everybody for instance knows that THE POOR APACHE was written by RODGERS AND HART for the 1932 film LOVE ME TONIGHT.

Not released 2000, Aug 17 2000
By guy richardson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cocktail Hour (Audio CD)
OK, the blurb up there says "released 2000." That's for the *CD* which is an aurally cleaned up version of stuff from the 30s and 40s. This is an old record, but a very good one. Chevalier's voice has a perpetual smile, and his accent on classics like "Walkin My Baby Back Home" is something you won't hear from the current swing-era-clone bands. Listening to Chevalier, I feel good. I suspect you will too.
