2.0 out of 5 stars Sad to see him go - even sadder to hear him sing, August 8, 2005

OK - let me preface my comments by justifying the 2-star rating...It's Rodney Dangerfield - he was a class act. As for the CD: If you're looking for a few songs by a comedian accompanied by someone's cheesy clavinova, then this CD is for you. I bought this because of the last track, "Rappin' Rodney", and boy was I disappointed. It sounds like it was recorded from an old worn out cassette. Do yourself a favor - get all of Rodney's DVD's with his standup material and remember him for what he was - a comedy legend.

Rodney Dangerfield has sung songs in some of his movies, most notably the animated "Rover Dangerfield" and "The 4th Tenor." Except for the last bonus track, all of the songs on this album were recorded from 2000 to 2004, when Rodney was old and in failing health. His version of "Strangers In The Night" does not compare favorably to Frank Sinatra's version, while the remix version of that tune is even worse. Rodney's song selection is somewhat strange, covering the religious hymns "I Believe" and "He." He's more enjoyable to listen to when he's singing the upbeat "I Spent My Birthday In Las Vegas" and "Rappin' Rodney," the title song taken from his 1983 comedy album. Rodney's even more enjoyable to listen to when he's telling jokes!
