4.0 out of 5 stars Some nice new things and some retreads, May 25, 2003

This review is from: Somewhere There's a Someone/The Hit Sound of Dean Martin (Audio CD)

Dean was producing hits so quickly from 1965-68 that with all his television and movie appearances he hardly had time to record enough material to fill new albums. So, Reprise re-released some laid back country material from 1962-63 for these albums, along with new hit versions of "Somewhere There's A Someone", "A Million And One", and "Come Running Back". Three other cuts are worth mentioning -- "That Old Clock On The Wall" has a great rhythm and strong beat, and was written by Dean's pianist Ken Lane (who also wrote "Everybody Loves Somebody"). "Shades" is a truly fine country song with a really neat arrangement, and probably was intended as the hit side of "A Million And One". And "Nobody But A Fool" is just one heck of a fun country novelty number.

Dean's "sound" could compete with any music that came along back in the day! even now it is timeless.
My Grandmother introduced me to the " Hit Sound of Dean Martin" my mom had a fine collection of albums that I was exposed to, while during the 60's I was listening to the Monkees, Sonny&Cher etc.
I pulled out my mom's old records and found that Deans' music really makes me feel good! It was fun, snappy music!
with a flare that only Dean had! I'm glad Reprise, and the Dean Martin Trust re-released these albums, To hear them again without all the "skipping and popping" is great! the way it was meant to be heard. WONDERFUL JOB TO EVERYONE who makes Dean's music available to a "new" generation of listeners.

3.0 out of 5 stars Too Much Demand, Not Enough Material, May 3, 2005

This review is from: Somewhere There's a Someone/The Hit Sound of Dean Martin (Audio CD)

By 1966, Dean's TV show was in full swing, and the demand for his albums was H-O-T! To try and meet the demand, Reprise records tried to mix and match new Dean Martin tracks, with tracks from his more obscure country albums, in order to fill out and *sell* more albums. Somewhere there's a Someone.. is pure cashbox. Aside from the title song and That Old Clock On the Wall, there's nothing new here. A Million and One has some new C&W flavored material in a late 60's country vein.. but manages to retread a few earlier tracks as well. Frankly I'd get Happiness Is & Welcome To My World.
