Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Really great!.......2006-11-29

If this music is your type of thing (and of course, it isn't EVERYONE'S type of thing anymore), this disc is for you. Actually, ALL of the discs put out by Archeophone are fantastic. They manage to find very good-sounding discs and clean them up just enough to sound good but not ruin the music. (In other words, yes, there's some crackle here and there, but at least the music sounds clean and crisp instead of muffled, as can often happen with noise reduction.) If you're interested in more of their CD's, look them up on Amazon or go to their web site (which is the name of the company, plus .com). They've got samples of every track on every one of their discs.

I have almost all of their discs, so I have this review up on all of them.

5 out of 5 stars Great old songs.......2005-09-02

This CD might not be for everyone, but for fans of long-ago music the way it should be performed, it's wonderful - I play it a lot - it's incredibly catchy and, while very much a product of its time, still demonstrates the quality of those old melodies. "Oh You Beautiful Doll" and "Moonlight Bay" are great old choruses, and I find a whole new side to Al Jolson in these very early records (the 1913 CD has another set of songs.) He's funnier and less "corny" than perhaps people think of him. And I hate to admit it, but the tearjerker "When I was 21 and You Were Sweet 16" did make me cry. Listen to CD's in this series often enough and it's as if those days a hundred years ago aren't quite so far away.
