5.0 out of 5 stars Don't listen to the nay-sayers, December 26, 2008

This review is from: The Duets (Audio CD)

This is a lovely CD and Pavarotti is wonderful on it. The duet with Lionel Richie is worth the price of the CD alone, not to mention the ones with Celine, Mariah, Sting and Elton, etc. "Miserere" is one of the most beautiful songs ever written and the rendition with the Maestro and Zucchero is spectacular. So powerful.

Don't listen to the negative reviews. They're probably some other tenor's fans trying to sabotage it. It was #1 on Billboard and is still #2 on the charts, so evidently, it's good. In fact, it's excellent.

The Pavarotti Duets album is one of the best CDs I've ever purchased. The diversity of artists is amazing, from soulful to rock to classical ... together with one of the greatest voices ever (Pavarotti). Every song is a winner. This would be a great gift for anyone with sophisticated musical tastes - and especially suitable for Valentine's Day!

This is a wonderful CD, one that everyone, regardless of age, will enjoy. A lasting memory of Pavoratti and his versatility as well as that of those he sings with. Would highly recommend this to anyone!
