CD Reviews

Essential For Avalon Fans
03/16/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This import from England offers 28 songs. More than half have never appeared on CD before, including every song from his 1959 top 10 album "Swingin' On A Rainbow." After listening to the Bobby Darin-like "Young And In Love," you'll wonder why it never became a hit. Also included are two sides from his album "Italiano." About the only thing missing is Avalon's version of "Come Fly With Me," which will hopefully be included on a second volume. This is by far the best reissue of Avalon's body of work in years."
Swinging
05/14/2000
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Most Avalon collections focus on his pop hits and ignore the standard and swing material he recorded. This collection offers some of the more "adult" recordings. Of course, the songs are wonderful, but in re-mastering, Avalon's voice should have been more up front. Some of the tracks sound like bootlegs. In truth, Avalon, who sounds better than ever today, needs to make a new standards album."
