5.0 out of 5 stars A must for Jolie fans, December 3, 2000

This review is from: World's Greatest Entertainer (Audio CD)

This CD has been created in such a manner as to capture the rich Jolson voice with a fidelity missing on most CD's. The recordings are of Jolson classics recorded on 78's from 1945 to 1949. An outstanding CD in digital stereo.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful restoration - buy it!, October 23, 2001

This review is from: World's Greatest Entertainer (Audio CD)

Robert Parker has made a career of restoring 78 rpm recordings to modern standards, and this CD is a fine example of his craft. Featuring 28 Decca tracks, they are cleaned up and augmented with a tad of reverberation; not enough to detract as the simulated stereo of the 1960s did, but enough to flesh out the sound. This album is a worthy addition to any Jolson fan's collection.
