5.0 out of 5 stars One More Time, February 3, 2003

This CD was a total delight. As I listened to it I heard style and warmth coming from a voice, that in my personal opinion, cannot be matched by anyone----past or present. If you enjoy this CD, then I urge you to buy all the rest of the CD's available on this site by Eddie Fisher. You will only find yourself wanting more of him.
I pray that there is one more future album put out by Mr. Fisher and as for all the other music that has not made it to CD---I ask the recording companies to go into their archives and release them. There is a market out here for the One and Only Eddie Fisher.
I want to thank Mr. Fisher for the hours of contentment and joy I have received from his music and may there only be more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Eddie Fisher: Great Broadway songs, wonderful voice..., June 24, 2006

I have always enjoyed this album, and I'm so happy that it has
been released as a CD. Here we have Eddie Fisher singing songs
by Bernstein and Sondheim,West Side Story and Gypsy, Meredith
Wilson¨s The Music Man, Bells are Ringing, My Fair Lady,
South Pacific. etc.. I always felt that Eddie Fisher was at his
best singing Broadway songs. I hold the same opinion about
Barbra Streisand. They were born to sing musical theatre.
In the past Eddie Fisher also selected Broadway tunes for his
repertoire such as Wish you were here, On the Street where you
live (from My Fair Lady), This Nearly was mine ( South Pacific),
The Sweetest Sounds (Rodgers and Hammerstein), What Kind of
Fool am I?, tonight, maria, somethings coming from West Side
Story, You gotta have HEART from Damm Yankees, etc. Some of these
songs appear in his live CDat the Winter Garden in 1962.
It would be great if all his Broadway songs and Musical theatre
songs could be presented in a boxed set. What a great collection.
He was so good looking . I hope that he is feeling well, and I
want to tell him how grateful we are for all the pleasurable
moments he has given us . Listen to his versions of TRY TO REMEMBER ( from the Fantasticks), or SUNRISE SUNSET (from
FIDDLER ON THE ROOF) and you will agree with me.
Eddie Fisher you are an original. My best to you.

unfortunately the sound quality is a major disappointment. Though the recording is in stereo, Fisher's voice is poorly balanced and the orchestra sounds thin, tinny and distant. A shame too since his voice is so well suited to the Broadway selections offered. I first became aware of Fisher when a friend played me his "Eddie Fisher at the Winter Garden" album which I truly enjoyed. Since then I've added several of his CD's to my collection. But even his early monaural recordings on the Jasmine label sound better than this CD. Other Fisher CD's I'd highly recommend are those released on the Collectables label featuring "two LP's on one CD" (often with extra bonus tracks). I'm giving this CD four stars as not to diminish Fisher's talent but only for that reason.
