Product Description
From Amazon.com
As you may already know from seeing it hawked incessantly on late-night TV by Jerry Vale, Mob Hits is a compilation CD that attempts to capture the ambience of the modern gangster pic by assembling songs heard in key scenes of such films as The Godfather, GoodFellas, Donnie Brasco, and Casino. While licensing restrictions keep the music of Frank Sinatra from being part of this collection (odd, as the address on this package is the address for his long-time label Capitol Records), the selection and sequencing of well-known Italian "hits" by Vale, Dean Martin, Louis Prima, Lou Monte, Al Martino, and Julius LaRosa gets the job done with discretion and honor. And the liner notes even offer a toll-free number for homemade pasta sauce. --Gregg Turkington

Que Bella!,
By vintagegirl (Lancaster, PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mob Hits: Music from & a Tribu (Audio CD)
I saw this album advertised one night in the fall and at first I was highly amused by the title. Like many people here who have written reviews, I love mob movies as well. I grew up with them. I saw this in a store and saw that it had many of my favorite artists on it. It wasn't so much that I remember them from the film, but because the music alone was great. I know that some people were offended by the title of the album, but I doubt that the makers had any intention of insulting individuals of Italian descent. it's a tribute to the music, not the images protrayed in the films themselves. And any one with a brain will realize that this does NOT apply to the Italian people. If you love good music, get this CD!

Real Italian Culture,
By A Customer
This review is from: Mob Hits: Music from & a Tribu (Audio CD)
Those Italians are something else! Tough businessmen, but they have a soft side,as we can see in these beautiful songs. This CD set is the wonderful soundtrack of the Italian-American experience and mob life.
