5.0 out of 5 stars Step 1) Saw him live. Step 2) Hooked.
Serendipity... Went out to dinner one evening with very close friends. Excellent restaurant, good wine, cuisine is excellent, and music? We're going to hear music? Some singer you say? Who is he? Why's he here?

Hmmm, the band is pretty good. This Civisca guy starts singing and..."Poof"!

We are instantly transformed into the most exclusive dinner...

This guy is one of the greatest musical con artists in a long time...he's got all the moves and inflections down pat, but he can't carry a tune past his lips! Don't waste your money!!!!!

We are instantly transformed into the most exclusive dinner theater imaginable. It was like something out of a movie. Civisca is terrific!

At the break I shook his hand and thanked him for such a treat. Then I purchased this CD. Our evening was magic. The CD is my most prized audio track. Thanks for a wonderful evening Michael.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than Sinatra, September 25, 1998
By A Customer
Singing like a young Sinatra at the peak of his form, Michael Civisca brings class, style, ease, and an incredibly liquid clarity to a selection of little known standards. The arrangements are extremely tasteful. If Frank Sinatra were starting out today, he might have sounded like this. Civisca is terrific!

4.0 out of 5 stars another gifted singer takes the torch from old blue eyes, July 21, 1998
By A Customer
you sit up in your chair in disbelief when the first bars of lyrics emanate from the stereo. chills go up your spine, then you realize this is not quite sinatra, but boy is it close! civiscas swinging style and phrasing is divine, his voice as strong as franks was in his prime. the backup as smooth and as precise as frank ever demanded. the cd opens with 3 swinging numbers. mary stahl joins in on too young in a french styled version which brings it 180 degrees from donny osmonds version (which i like till today). there are a few average cuts but what a voice he has! just listening to it during the bad cuts makes the cd worth buying. truly a great cd even if you dont like frank. i heard this at borders and bought it at list price. im not sorry! i cant wait till his next cd to arrive!
