5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Memorabilia, April 21, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Sweetheart of Song (Audio CD)
You can easily find better recordings of these songs, and better recordings by the artist. But this collection, made from radio transcriptions of late 1936 and early 1937, represents a very special time in our history, when people "tuned in" to the Eddie Cantor radio program on a coast-to-coast hookup to enjoy his humor and listen to some of Hollywood's new stars. (A very young Judy Garland was also a frequent guest.) I've wondered, in the past, why no one ever reproduced these in a modern format, and now at last they have. You can hear newer and better recordings, but this is the only way you'll hear Deanna and Bobby the way they sounded sixty-five years ago.
