It's been suggested that almost as many baby boomers were conceived to the romantic sounds of Johnny Mathis's voice as to Sinatra's--and when you consider that Johnny's Greatest Hits stayed on Billboard's Top 40 chart for 178 weeks beginning in '58 (that's more than twice as long as Dark Side of the Moon, folks!), it's easy to understand why. Sony has used this "16 Most Requested" routine on a number of their easy-listening vocalists (including Sinatra and Andy Williams), but this one is special in that it takes the cream of Mathis's Greatest Hits album and rounds it out with his 1970s take on several movie theme hits, including Love Story and Romeo & Juliet. A truly unique and romantic sound. --Bill Holdship

I love these old tunes sung by Johnny Mathis. I've been a fan for a long time. His songs are smooth and romantic and I enjoy listening to them.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful! Wonderful!.......2007-05-10

"The world is full of wondrous things, it's true
But they wouldn't have much meaning without you
Some quiet evening I sit by your side
And we're lost in a world of our own
I feel the glow of your unspoken love
I'm aware of the treasure that I own
And I say to myself
It's wonderful, wonderful
Oh, so wonderful, my love."

One of the most simple pleasures one can have in this busy world we live in - the age of BlackBerrys - is to snatch some precious and quiet moments to go back in time and experience the charms of the old world through this mesmerizing and soothing music of Johnny Mathis, one of my very favorite singers of all-time.

I always enjoy listening to these sixteen most requested songs from the opener "Chances Are" to the final track "Gina." My favorites include "Misty," "It's Not For Me To Say," "Wild Is The Wind," "A Certain Smile," "When Sunny Gets Blue," "Didn't We" and "Wonderful! Wonderful," a beautiful composition by Ben Raleigh and Sherman Edwards, which Howard Garwood singled out on Liner Notes as the song that the "Mathis Formula" was born. And that formula is the mixture of his "crystal-clear diction, the intimate throb that seems to speak personally to every woman in the audience, and the almost ethereal and technically perfect use of the upper register." Amen to that! He said it perfectly. I would add that Mr. Mathis is the epitome of an exceptional singer and he delivers so well in all his recordings.

Listen to this CD if you want to escape momentarily from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. In this so very busy world, who isn't guilty of putting make-up on while driving to work in the morning? Who isn't guilty of having breakfast of oatmeal with brown sugar and dried cranberries, banana and coffee while driving to work in the morning? Who isn't guilty of jotting down a list of "things-to-do-today" while driving to work in the morning? Who isn't guilty of making and receiving phone calls while driving? But the bottom line is . . . as long as there's music such as this to listen to, our busy, demanding and hectic schedules will always be bearable.

This is one of my very favorite CDs from my collection. I wholeheartedly recommend it for your listening enjoyment always and forever!

5 out of 5 stars Johnny Mathis Rocks!!!! .......2007-04-07

One of the best music purchases I have ever made. I ordered the cd because I had front row seats to his concert. The music or the man did not disappoint. The cd was almost as good as the live performance!!! Well worth the purchase.

5 out of 5 stars Wowie!.......2007-03-06

Listening to Johnnie
makes me feel bonny.
Chances are

Misty is a nice song
and not to long.
the 12th of never

But my faverite is Gina
i wish i could here that in a arena.

This cd is good y'all!!!!!!!

2 out of 5 stars Johnny Mathis Memories.......2007-02-14

If you're a Johnny Mathis fan you must have this recording for your collection. As I browsed through the various "best of" cd's this one contained the most past hits I was seeking. The sound quality is excellent. So, purchase this cd, pop it in your player and let Johnny flood your mind with wonderful melodies.

5 out of 5 stars The REAL GodFather of Soul.......2007-01-10

This CD captures the essence of who Sam Cooke was and the intensity of his love for music. Had Sam Cooke not died young, he would have been the GodFather of Soul. Like many before him, he started with Gospel music and went on to mainstream on his own. My favorite Sam Cooke song is "LITTLE RED ROOSTER!"

I highly recommend this CD as well as looking into the man who was Sam Cooke.

5 out of 5 stars Most Requested Songs by Sam Cooke.......2006-11-03

I loved all of the songs on this CD. Every song is worth hearing again and again.

5 out of 5 stars Smooth Satin Soul.......2005-09-19

Sam Cooke was one of the greatest. If you ever had any doubt, purchase this album and you will be convinced. I have been listening to it daily for years

5 out of 5 stars SOUL.......2001-09-27

is the first word that comes to mind upon hearing this set.Sam Cooke lays it on&never let's up.as a Composer,Vocalist He was something else.One of a Kind&this set Highlights His Genius which is a timeless set.

5 out of 5 stars The best available Sam Cooke compilation.......2001-03-19

Now that The Man and His Music has gone out of print, this is, to the best of my knowledge, the ONLY compilation that has Chain Gang, Wonderful World, Cupid and Another Saturday Night, which are in my opinion the four best songs of the masterful Sam Cooke, one of the great musical talents of the sixties who combined r and b, soul, gospel and rock into a unique style all his own. For some reason most Cooke compilations exclude one or more of these great great tunes, and in fact I don't think Another Saturday Night is available anywhere else. Excellent sound too.

4 out of 5 stars About as much Andy Williams as one needs.......2006-08-04

Being a Sinatraphile, I don't often like to venture into the domain of other "Easy Listening" singers; I generally stick with the best. However, every now and then I pop in something different just for the sake of variety. If nothing else, it makes me appreciate Sinatra that much more. But I digress. Williams has a very smooth, pleasant voice. He's not offensive, his voice is distinctive, and he has sung some good songs. Besides, he was a friend and supporter of Bobby Kennedy, so he must be a halfway decent guy. This collection is pretty solid: his signature song, "Moon River," is here; "Can't Get Used to Losing You" is a damn fine, catchy tune; "Dear Heart" and "Days of Wine and Roses" are also quite good, though my favorite song on this collection is the beautiful "Emily." There are some standards and a couple I could do without, but overall I would consider this a good buy.

4 out of 5 stars You just don't hear these songs anymore.............2005-07-20

Listening to Andy Williams brought back lots of memories. You just don't hear these songs played on free radio anymore. Now I can listen anytime I want. Great CD!

5 out of 5 stars What kind of singer!.......2005-05-08

When finally you decide to make a personal list of the greatest American crooners in the past Century you must include him necessarily. His voice has a singular style and could to make a real journey from a tour de force song to the most slender song under the moonlight-
Andy Williams will be always remembered due his fascinating charisma and personality. His version of Autumn leaves, for instance is one of the five best I know, but there will be always Williams

5 out of 5 stars Sweet Memories.......2005-01-24

These songs bring back so many memories from my childhood. I remember dancing in the kitchen with my dad while this tape played. Now I'm 17 and we still have the tape. so when I found the cd on here I had to buy it. My favorites are: "can't get used to losing you", "Moon River", "Born Free", "Danny Boy", "Impossible dream", and my all time favorite..."Emily." It was always a special song since my name is Emily. I know that this was more sharing my feelings than reveiwing the cd, but thats ok. I highly recommend this album. Andy Williams is one of the best.

3 out of 5 stars I bought this one because of a dream..........2004-12-02

One night I had a dream in which Andy Williams appeared. It was really bizarre. I was skiing down the side of a mountain with Eve Plumb and I suddenly fell down. I looked up and Eve was nowhere to be seen. Suddenly, Andy Williams appeared.

I asked him to help me up and he asked if I owned any of his albums. I said I didn't. He said he'd help me up if I promised to go and buy one of them. I promised I'd buy one, so he helped me up. Then he and I and Eve Plumb went to a diner and had hot chocolate together.

It was such a weird dream. Usually other celebrities don't appear in my dreams about Eve Plumb. I figured it was some sort of sign, so I went and bought this CD the very next day.

5 out of 5 stars Robert Goulet's strong voice, diction and panache touched and thrilled his audiences--BRAVO, ROBERT GOULET !!!.......2007-06-24

Robert Goulet enjoyed a career spanning several decades. He always pleased his adoring audiences; Robert's strong voice, excellent diction and passionate deliveries made him an icon of the entertainment world. This CD showcases Robert's talents as a singer; and every moment of this CD proves that Robert Goulet's star still shines as brightly as it ever did.

The CD track set begins with one of Goulet's signature songs," If Ever I Would Leave You." Robert delivers this with panache, sensitivity and a certain type of masculine warmth that will prove hard for his successors to match. The musical arrangement makes good use of the strings, too. Beautiful! "What Now My Love" follows; Robert performs this with a great deal of sensitivity that touches me greatly. The strings and drums enhance the beauty of "What Now My Love," too.

Other gems on this CD--which, quite honesty--would probably mean the entire album--include the charming delivery Robert gives for "Real Live Girl." The melody and tempo work well as Bobby sings of a young man's delight with his first true love. "On A Clear Day (You Can See Forever)" comes from the Vincente Minnelli movie of the same name; Robert Goulet delivers this without singing a single superfluous note. The backup chorus harmonizes very well, too. Love it!

"Call Me Irresponsible" gets the royal treatment from Robert Goulet; he sings this to perfection. His excellent diction strengthens his delivery; and the strings work well with the arrangement, too. Goulet's interpretation of the classic ballad "What Kind Of Fool Am I" shines brightly; he slows down the tempo to make this a very soft, sensitive number. Despite his strong voice, Robert's delivery hints at a certain vulnerability on "What Kind Of Fool Am I." I think you will like this number very much.

"For Once In My Life" celebrates the joys of finally being in true love for the very first time; the horns and strings make this number all the more touching and beautiful. "She Touched Me" lets Bobby sing of the happiness he feels when he finally knows the woman he loves reciprocates his love. The arrangement has a big band flavor to it that bolsters the joyousness of "She Touched Me."

The CD ends with another song Robert Goulet often performed, "The Impossible Dream." Like almost all of Bobby's songs, "The Impossible Dream" retains its classic, beautiful quality despite the passage of time. Goulet, with his exceptionally strong masculine voice, delivers THE perfect rendition of "The Impossible Dream." In addition, because the song explores a man's quest to always go forward in search of fulfilling his dreams, "The Impossible Dream" makes a strong ending for this CD. Excellent!

The liner notes have an informative essay by Brian Gari; and Larry Keyes at CBS Records Studios did a great job of remastering of these ballads.

I highly recommend this CD for any Robert Goulet fan; and people who enjoy classic pop vocals will love this CD, too. Robert Goulet will always remain one of the greatest entertainers we ever knew; and we are all better off because of his invaluable contributions to the arts.

4 out of 5 stars You have to be a Robert Goulet fan.......2006-08-05

Having been a fan of Robert Goulet's since he played Lancelot in the broadway production of Camelot, I was looking for a recording of "If ever I would leave you" from that show. This album, with 16 of his most popular songs, was the answer for me. Some of the arrangements have a very "sixties" sound, and may not have withstood the test of time, but all the selections do showcase his rich, powerful voice. After listening to this album, he is still one of my all-time favorite singers.

5 out of 5 stars desert isle status.......2005-02-16

Robert Goulet is a master interpreter of music for the Broadway stage, and this fantastic CD has a terrific sampling of show tunes, as well as songs written for film, and some lovely standards. Goulet's first "big break" came after a few seasons of Canadian variety TV, when he was chosen as "Lancelot" in the 1960 Lerner & Loewe "Camelot", starring alongside Richard Burton and Julie Andrews. Here in the first track is his signature song from that musical, the beautiful "If Ever I would Leave You".
Goulet's rich, resonant baritone and unique style are a joy to hear, and something one notices immediately is his flawless enunciation, which applies to his Italian as well, in "My Love, Forgive Me". After decades of hearing singers sink into a mire of slurred speech, it is very refreshing, and adds so much to the depth of emotion Goulet brings to a song. "Sunrise, Sunset" is a good example, where the lyrics take on new meaning in Goulet's exquisite and incredibly moving interpretation.

I love romantic melodies, and "Take Me in Your Arms" is another big favorite, as well as the fantastic rendition of "Call Me Irresponsible". The final track is an inspiring and powerful ending, with "The Impossible Dream" from "Man of La Mancha", a show Goulet has starred in with great success.
Great songs, sumptuous singing, and Goulet's consummate artistry make this disc eligible for desert isle status, unless you'd rather get the 3 disc import "Collection", which has all these tracks and 44 more to enjoy.
The foldout insert has minimal liner notes, and no composer/lyricist credits on the song list (this is a major omission in my book). The sound is very good and total playing time is 49'01.

3 out of 5 stars GOOD GOULET.......2003-03-22

Goulet has a rich baritone voice and the sixteen selections show how he managed to become such a superstar during a time of several other worthier singers. However, if you like Goulet, you'll love this collection, as it has sixteen very beautiful songs. I find Goulet's deliveries, however, rather dispassionate, and I don't think he tried to branch out and show the range he could have possibly had.

4 out of 5 stars Doris .......2007-01-31

This collection has definite 1950's feel to it. This does not detract from Doris Day's great voice and impeccable delivery. There are better Doris Day albums out there, but this is an okay sampler of her range. She can out the fun in tunes like "Love Somebody" and all heart and emotion in other like "I'll never stop loving you".

5 out of 5 stars What would the world be like without Doris Day?.......2004-12-15

No, honestly what wouls it be like? I first started loving Doris when I saw her Calamity Jane quite a few years ago. I am now 14. And it is a good thing I found out about old movies, or else there would be nothing appropriate to watch! And this CD is a great christmas, bithday, or stocking stuffer gift even. These 16 most requested songs are all wonderful. Doesn't everyone just fall in love with her when she very first just opens her mouth?

Sentimental Journey? WONDERFUL! Honestly, Day could sing Grandma Got Ran Over By A Reindeer, and it would be wonderful (though I really can't imagine it). Everybody loves a lover, Love Somebody, It's Magic, Again,...
All of these songs are hits in my own opinion. This is a great CD. And I reccomend it highly! A wonderful album to add to your collection!!

5 out of 5 stars I love her power-hammering riffs!.......1999-07-23

My roomate from two years ago had a cd of Doris; and I must admit, at first, I was a little skeptical. But soon I became stunned by her vocal prowess and the emotional heart juice that she brought to these classic songs. Plus, you should see her in a football uniform! Man can she catch the pigskin.

3 out of 5 stars An almsot perfect compilation.......1999-05-06

Although I must say that this collection does contain most of Ms.Day's greatest hits, and that I was happy that My darling,My Darling (her duet with Buddy Clark)was included--the remixing of the original Columbia master tapes leaves alot to be desired. This is a problem with all their 16 Most Requested series of CD's. Columbia recordings were famous for the use of reverb--echo, if you will--which added a distintiveness to their recordings. Shaghai, and A Guy is A Guy, in their original 45 versions posssed this "reverb" which is missing from the remasted versions--they sound very flat,and take away from the integrity of the originals. I feel Sony should think of this if nay new pressings of these Cd's ever occur.

5 out of 5 stars Favorite Female Singer of All Time!.......1999-02-03

This is the first Doris Day album I have ever bought, though I have adored her since I was a young girl. It is a fabulous collection of early career songs with a few later ones tossed in. I have heard Secret Love hundreds of times, no exageration, and it still brings me to tears. The lyrics are beautiful, but it is most definitly Ms Day's beautiful voice that makes that song what it is, Spectacular! I just ordered three more Doris Day albums. Thank you Doris, for brightening our world!

4 out of 5 stars Nostalgia through music.......2007-06-12

The Four Lads were offered songs that I heard when I was in college and you could understand every word. The melodies and lyrics could be remembered almost as soon as you heard them.

I'll take that kind of singing and harmony over any of the offerings of today, all right I'm an old codger but we have our likes and dislikes as do the younger generations. And again those songs were easily singable. 'Nuff said.

4 out of 5 stars For followers of Good Music........2006-11-11

Very good. I would have given it a 5 but my interest was in some tracks that that did not duplicate others previously purchased. For anyone interested in music from an era of great artists - this is one to have.

Excellent music, however I ordered it in error. It is a duplicate of a CD I already own. It was returned for credit.

5 out of 5 stars Great music.......2006-03-09

I'm from the '50's. I just graduated from high school, 1950, and this is the kind of music we went out dancing, romancing with our girl friends. When we danced it was couples holding each other close. Close depended on how well you thought of your partner and he/she of you. People standing four feet from each other, wiggling and jiggling, is definitely NOT dancing!
Having your partner lay her head on your shoulder while dancing is the real thing and this is the music to have playing.

5 out of 5 stars VIC DAMONE.......2007-03-13

FOR THOSE OF US BORN IN HIS ERA, WELL WORTH THE MONEY TO BUY THIS CD OF SOME OF HIS GREATEST HITS INCLUDING "AN AFFAIR TO REMEMBER", SO DON'T MISS THE CHANCE TO OWN THIS WONDERFUL ALBUM.

4 out of 5 stars A Calm Influence.......2007-01-11

Vic's voice is silky smooth; I had forgotten after all these years until watching "An Affair to Remember" on TV and wondering who was singing the theme song. I play this over and over in my car when I am stressed. It calms me down, it puts me in a better mood, and it makes me appreciate the gifted artists in our recent past.

5 out of 5 stars Guess I'm Partial.......2002-06-01

Yup...guess I'm partial. This compilation of all Vic's hits thru the years are bellissimo!

Even if you've never Damone sing before, this would be the best place to begin! And if you have heard him.....you'll listen repeadedly. The tone is romantic - vibrant - and as usual, his choice of romantic favorites, excellent!

5 out of 5 stars The WALTZ QUEEN DELIVERS - GREAT ITEM.......2007-04-25

Miss Page is one of the most versatile singers of all time. I know many folks that have this CD and they all love it. Even her current CDs of the 1990s and 2000 are fabulous. Her voice is deep and rich. She is still THE SINGING RAGE. Over 100 million records sold, she continues to sell today. YOU GO GIRL !!!

It has some good old songs on and will be a valuable addition to my CD collection

2 out of 5 stars If you like 'em with schmaltz . . . .......2006-06-10

I've only listened to a few tracks before storing in my to-listen-to-later stack. P.P. is a borderline case for me, but I like Tennessee Waltz. What we have here sounds like an overdone re-recording of 50s and 60s hits--heavy on the violins, choruses, and other syrupy forms of overproducing. Do I detect the heavy hand of Mitch Miller ladling on the schmaltz? Reminds me of the way the fun Sons of the Pioneers were sugared o'er in their later years.

5 out of 5 stars Didn't think this was my kind of music but..........2006-03-10

I bought this for my partner for Christmas. He loves country, bluegrass, and Bette Midler. He plays music all evening long every evening. He's taught me to like or even love the kinds of music he loves (before we were together, I was more a rock and roll and classical kind of guy). This Patti Page CD has really gotten under my skin. I can't believe I'm listening to music my parents listened to, but this is really good stuff. Ms. Page's voice is, no other word for it, sublime. The arrangements are very lush. I was familiar with some of the songs but not all. I love it now when my partner puts this CD on (great as she is, there has to be a little relief from Dolly Parton from time to time!).

3 out of 5 stars Not the Best.......2005-09-09

I must admit I've never been a fan of Patti's. She certainly has an acceptable voice, but she sings so artificially. Even her "look" on the jacket of this CD is artificial.

Anyway, I see little of the substance of a great singer such as Eydie Gorme or, one of my favorites (I'm a WW II guy), Helen Forrest.
