4.0 out of 5 stars gigli: from earliest to middle period, March 10, 2001
Romophone has maintained its excellent standard of transfers with this double album of recs that begin in 1918. A friend of mine says Gigli's tone was the most "seductive" of all tenors, about which I would have difficulty arguing. The later electrics show the bad side to Gigli's singing, with aspirates at every turn; unnecessary with his abilities and a disgraceful indulgence. However, most folk will not be concerned, concentrating on the honest upfront outpouring. Recommended to newcomers to Gigli as a good cross-section; most fans will already have the contents (though unlikely to be in such balanced transfers).
