The Best Of Dean Martin by Dean Martin
as far as I am concerned this was the real star of the rat pack back in the days. smooth vocals, that could melt your heart. his song selection strengthened his vocals. He always had a good orchestra behind him. this album is a good example of his best music. it contains a lot of his big alr play songs. I remember standing in front of the mirror as a kid sing along. Yes I'm that old. check him out, may be dead but still a star

This seems to be a budget collection of sorts, but as far as song selection goes, all the big ones are on here. It's roughly the same as his other "hits" discs. "That's Amore", "Return to Me", and "You're Nobody 'Til Somebody Loves You" are all on here, as well as nine others. The first half of this is classic Dean. It's such a refreshing thing to put on after listening to alot of the junk on the radio. I would say if there's one thing you need with your next martini, it's this cd. It will go great with your "Frank" and "Tony" cd's too.

I was surprised how much I loved the music on this CD and how much I remembered. I guess I heard my parents playing it when I was little. I especially like Amore and Volare. What can be better than "When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie, thats amore." Dean Martin has a rich romantic voice. I think he is much better than Frank Sinatra. The only bad cut on this CD is the 1st one which is a folksy Kingston Trio type number that doesn't fit with Martin's voice but it is easy to skip that track. The rest is great.

I like Dean Martin and this is a great CD that has a lot of fantastic songs, That's Amore, Volare, Standing On The Corner, You're Nobody Til Somebody Loves You, etc, and I recommend this CD and also That's Amore: The Best of Dan Martin which I actually like better because it has 20 songs and this has just 12 songs but I still like this CD.

This is an excellent compilation of songs that kept Dean in our hearts and in our thoughts. These are the songs that most everyone will associate Dean Martin with. When Dean's name is brought into a conversation you immediately start to hum to yourself songs like "That's Amore", "Memories Are Made of This", "Return To Me", and the unfogetable "Volare". If you remember one or two of these tunes, and I'm very sure you, maybe even more, this compilation is the one to get. It'll even give you a taste of some of the classic Italian songs Dean recorded during his career. He just always seemed so relaxed whether he was singing or acting. I've been a very big fan of Deans' for years and a very big record collector as well and this compilation is now part of my collection.

So good that I want to buy the sheet music with the words to the songs listed on the album. Do you sell the sheet music? If so what are the prices. If not, do you know where I can buy them.

I grew up listening to Dino and he's the first man besides my Dad that I was in love with....The Dean Martin show and the Golddiggers were a part of our life... I 'm so glad Mom and Dad loved him and still do. I truly feel sorry for anyone who doesn't know his talent. While Frank was gifted and I enjoy his music Dean had a better voice.

Short & Sweet! This cd serves as a fine introduction for new fans of the Dean as well as a nifty collection of hits for longtime enthusiasts. While the song selection is srong, I would have liked to have seen Until The Real Thing Comes Along, Just In Time, Ain't That A Kick In The Head and Canadian Sunset included here as well, as these are among Dino's all-time best.Regardless, this is an excellent compilation and a terrific reminder of why this performer remains so well-loved!
