3.0 out of 5 stars Eclectic collection of Jolson numbers of variable quality, October 23, 2001

This review is from: Portrait of Al Jolson (Audio CD)

This two CD set contains an eclectic and somewhat erratic collection of 48 Jolson songs from studio recordings, along with radio and film cuts. Quality is variable, with a few tracks fairly good, and most others having some noise or cut beginnings or endings; at least one track, "About A Quarter To Nine," is edited. While I would not rely on this CD for clean cuts of these songs, it is inexpensive, and may be a reasonable addition to a starting Jolson library.
