5.0 out of 5 stars
5 hits that really ARE that great, and then some...,
By
This review is from: Duprees - All-Time Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
Contrary to another reviewer's opinion, the Duprees' five biggest hits are beyond great, they're sensational! With apologies to the lovely Jo Stafford whose much earlier version of "You Belong To Me" belongs in a pantheon of the world's greatest love songs, but as great as Ms Stafford's version is, this one is something to behold. The harmonies backing up lead singer, Joe Canzano, are a thrill to hear -- augmented even more by that glorious saxophone that helped make this one of the greatest slow-dance tunes of 1962. After all these years, I'm still captivated by this magical rendition; no less so by any of the other four that follow the same formula of great harmonies with great saxophone backups. The Duprees really do prove the worth of that addage, "they don't make them like they used to."

The 5 Greatest Hits by the Duprees...and 13 Fillers,
By Edward Stewart (Scottsdale,, AZ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Duprees - All-Time Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
You have to love the Duprees 5 best known hits, from You Belongto Me, My Own True Love, Why Don't You Believe Me, Have You Heard to It's no Sin. Their forte of taking an old standard and stylize it with their signature sax harmonics produced but 5 worthy efforts, as noted. You have to remember, however, that Dion and the Belmonts did much the same with even greater success. The Duprees really missed a golden opportunity to duplicate their successes with Where Are You, Goodnight My Love, Two Different Worlds and especially the Eddie Fisher hit, I'm Yours, which literally cried out to be Dupree-ized, but wasn't. Too Bad! Thus,the majority of these 18 "Greatest Hits" are really not that great.
