This review is from: Greatest Hits- 40 Original Recordings (Audio CD)

I BOUGHT THIS CD FOR THE 'ROCKIN' SIDE OF FRANKIE. IT MENTIONS THAT THEY ARE ORIGINAL RECORDINGS.THEY'RE NOT. IT'S THE ORIGINAL ALBUM BUT THEY ARE REMAKES DONE IN THE 50'S. THOSE TUNES WERE ORIGINALLY DONE IN THE 40'S.

THE ORIGINAL 40'S RECORDINGS HAD FRANKIE'S MUSIC PARTNER CARL FISCHER'S GREAT SWINGIN' JAZZ GROUP BACKING HIM UP. VIBES,TENOR SAX ETC.
I JUST ORDERED;"THE MERCURY YEAR'S" WHICH I SHOULD HAVE DONE TO BEGIN WITH.

THE "BIG HIT'S" SECTION ARE THE ORIGINAL'S THOUGH, AND GREAT TO LISTEN TO. P.S. Please check my "Mercury Years" (Frankie Laine)
review. That CD is a FANTASTIC CLASSIC!!!! It's like the first solo Crosby/Elvis/Chet Baker recordings. They will never top those tracks, EVER!!!!

Hey Amazing Amazon: Where's the track list? Don't imagine your are selling too many of these if people don't know what they're buying.
