2.0 out of 5 stars Not very good, I'm afraid!, August 2, 2002
This review is from: Java Jive (Audio CD)
Not the original line up, and Boy does it show! I bought this album for the track "(Kiss me once..)It's been a long, long time" and even this song has been spoilt. Most of the songs sound "false" - almost as though someone is doing a poor Karaoke version of them. Sorry boys, but PLEASE don't kid yourselves. The Ink Spots? ... I think not!

1.0 out of 5 stars Stink Pots, May 27, 2010
This review is from: Java Jive (Audio CD)
This DELTA/LASERLIGHT disc had a heckuva price on it, so I stopped to sample it even though I know this label is notorious for issuing late-career rehashes. And that's what's here, naturally.

Just knew trouble lay ahead when the sound bite of Track #1 ("I Love You Truly") had an instrumental break rather than voices. Sure enough, the very next selection verified my suspicions. The Ink Spots, or however many were still alive by the time these records were cut, are clearly in their dodderage on these sessions. The sparkle of their early-30s sides has long ago faded. Backing musicians aren't very inspiring either (and that's being kind!).

Check out "You Always Hurt the One You Love" and you'll hear all you'll need to know to make an informed NON-buying decision. What we have on this forgettable DELTA offering is the Ink BLOTS, alas.

NOT recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Different but GREAT!, March 28, 2009
This review is from: Java Jive (Audio CD)
The vocals are not what I expected (40-50's era black American sound), but when I got over it I really love them! This is truly a nice and special artistic rendition of old songs, What good it will be if everybody would sing the song the same way? Uncreatively boring, that's it would be. I do recommend this refreshing recording to anyone!!!
