You'll like this albumn if you are looking for the odd "B","C" or "D" cut of these "greatest hits". However, if you're looking for a CD with those super "A" cuts that Al was famous for, you won't find them here.

A great album, all the favorites, and the sound quality is a vast improvement over the LP's and Cassette Tapes which I have purchased in the past.

This review is from: Al Jolson - 22 Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

Jolson not only had a richness in his voice, an incredible timbre that makes every note feel alive- he had such great hope and feeling, such spirit that moved the listener along with him. Whether it was the 'Red Red Robin' bob-bob-bobbing or the 'Swanee' which he sang how I love you to , Jolson was moving , moving as in too 'California here I come.' And when he wanted to sing sentimental like 'Mammy' or as in 'April Showers' or 'Sonny Boy'he sang with a love that can break the heart.
The first great superstar of American song, and one of the greatest still.
