4.0 out of 5 stars Good Low-priced "Best of" Collection, September 30, 1998

This review is from: Jolson Story: Rock-A-Bye Your Baby (Audio CD)

This collection is a nicely priced MCA re-release of an earlier Jolson LP. The recordings are clean and a good remastering of some of Jolie's finest and most popular pieces, however, contrary to the playlist above it contains all the listed songs except "My Mother's Rosary" and "Where the Black-Eyed Susans Grow". While the pieces contained on this CD can be got on other lenghthy compilation albums, this CD gives you the basic "Best of". Includes favorites such as "Swanee", "My Mammy", "Carolina in the Mornin'" and the title song, all reminiscent of the Jazz Singer's love for the people and the culture of the older South.

The CD was a gift for my wife and she LOVES it. She likes a lot of the older music and I get in her car that's all she plays. I'm glad she's happy, I'm tired of Al.
