by
Henry Mancini
Days of Wine and Roses is a comprehensive three-disc box set featuring all of Henry Mancini's most popular and best-known works in their original versions. For some, the sheer extensiveness of the set may be a bit intimidating -- after all, three discs is a lot for casual fans -- but for serious fans of the composer, it's an essential purchase. ...

Eddy Howard
The Best of Eddy Howard is a single-disc, 25-track overview of his romantic pop hits recorded in the late 1940s. Among the standards interpreted by the vocalist are "The Nearness of You," "How Deep Is the Ocean?" "Stardust," and "I Got It Bad (And That Ain't Good)." While this is a decent sampler, it omits too many hits. The Best of Eddy Howard: ...

by
Aretha Franklin
Franklin's Columbia years are hard to summarize in compilations, even fairly extensive ones such as this two-CD set, which includes six previously unreleased tracks and one previously unavailable alternate take among its 40 songs. In part that's because she explored several different styles during this era without really finding a home in any of ...

Sophisticated Swing [Collectables]

by
Les Elgart
Les Elgart's band, the band with that sound, pursued a style of sweet music that was restrained but punchy and elegant yet very playful -- in similar company to Henry Mancini's fizzy champagne euphoria. Sophisticated Swing, a Collectables repackaging of three distinct two-fers, presents six original LPs ranging from 1953's Sophisticated Swing to ...

more music like this
by
The Mills Brothers
This three-disc compilation features many of the Mills Brothers' best tracks. Although Golden Greats does not cover the vocal group's whole career, it still competes well with the definitive Mills Brothers: The Anthology (1931-1968) and perhaps represents them better. Matt Collar, All Music Guide

Love Songs [Sony]

Aretha Franklin
As music in the early 21st century grows more complex in theme and instrumentation (albeit, electronically), it's always nice to revisit a classic. No one sings of love's woes and wins any better than Ms. Aretha Franklin. The Queen of Soul and preeminent diva, if there ever was one, lends her one of a kind vocal chords to the Columbia Legacy ...

The Golden Years of Bing Crosby

more music like this

Bing Crosby
This three-CD set from the U.K. is one disc slimmer and not quite as comprehensive as the 1993 American box set Bing! His Legendary Years, 1931 to 1957, but it makes for an excellent second choice. The Golden Years of Bing Crosby focuses, as its title suggests, on the period when Crosby was firmly situated at the top of the world, beginning with ...
