Album Description2008 two CD set. The Best Of Schmaltz Vol. 2 is bursting with even more schmaltz: 49 moving melodies performed by the film, TV and Jazz stars of the '40s and '50s. Seasoned men like Nat King Cole and Louis Armstrong can be just as schmaltzy and sentimental as their female counterparts. Marilyn Monroe remains unforgotten and was another `must' for this compilation. Love can also be a thing of beauty, as documented by the duet sung by Bing Crosby and the young Grace Kelly ('True Love'). Dinah Shore, Etta Jones, Artie Shaw with Lena Horne, Perry Como and Helen Humes are among the other artists featured on The Best Of Schmaltz Vol. 2. If Volume 1 is already oozing from your CD player, Volume 2 will literally come gushing out; 140 minutes of schmaltzy melodies, full of sickly-sweet yearning! Documents.
