TOP NOTCH HENRY MANCINI!!

Stephan Mayer | sacramento, ca United States | 11/15/2002

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I LOVE THIS COLLECTION. Where else is there another collection that ties so many of his great film songs, TV songs and a few of his versions of other hits together?? You get his 60s stuff (his best I think), some easy listening from the 70s and stuff from the 80s and 90s - a great cross section.The sound is GREAT! If you are a Mancini fan, make THIS your first collection. DEAR HEART and TWO FOR THE ROAD are worth the price of admission!"

Some Magical Mancini Moments...

"This digitally remastered 3 disc set is a splendidly sequenced overview of the composer/musician/arranger Henry Mancini. He has not been with us since 1994, but his music is still as fresh as ever. All his hits are here, "Moon River", "Charade", "Days of Wine and Roses" etc. Ofcourse you get the themes from "The Pink Panther" and "Hatari's", "Baby Elephant Walk" representing his lighter side. Mancini tickles the ivory on a few tracks himself. He shows his jazz affinity on the arrangement of "Big Noise From Winnetka" which I had never been familiar with until this set. Oddly, over half the collection is devoted to the works of other composers, showing his famous "Mancini Touch". Some of it works and some I would stick to the originals. He does a bouncy playful arrangement of chief competitor Burt Bacharach's "Rain Drops Keep Falling On My Head". On Morricone's

"Untouchables" he gives us a symphonic "BLAST", but is not very inspired on that composers argueably biggest hit "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly". Overall this well thought out import compilation is a bargain, when you consider there are single CDs

costing more and offering a lot less. Add a star if you don't mind skimpy liner notes, no composition dates, or whos playing what."

A WARM SHADE OF MANCINI

A MUSIC LOVER | SOUTH ELGIN, IL USA | 08/21/2004

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I BOUGHT MY FIRST HENRY MANCINI ALBUM IN 1969. THE NAME OF IT WAS "A WARM SHADE OF IVORY". NEEDLESS TO SAY I'VE BEEN WAITING SINCE 1981 FOR AT LEAST SOME OF THOSE SONGS THAT I LOVED ON THAT ALBUM TO COME OUT IN CD FORMAT. AND NOW THREE OF THOSE SONGS HAVE COME OUT IN THIS BOX SET. THE "LOVE THEME FROM ROMEO & JULIET", "WINDMILLS OF YOUR MIND", AND MY FAVORITE "BY THE TIME I GET TO PHOENIX". NOBODY DOES THIS SONG INSTRUMENTALLY LIKE HENRY MANCINI. THIS IS THE PERFECT SONG TO LISTEN TO WHEN THE SUNSETS AND DUSK SETTLES ON THE WESTERN HORIZON. THE VERY NEXT SONG ON THE 3RD CD IS "AIRPORT LOVE THEME". AGAIN NO ONE DOES IT BETTER THAN MANCINI. THIS IS THE PERFECT SONG TO LISTEN TO ON A WEST BOUND NIGHT FLIGHT ACROSS COUNTRY OR EVEN IN YOUR HOME WITH THE LIGHTS TUNED DOWN LOW. HENRY MANCINI HAS A WAY WITH HIS ORCHESTRAL BLEND AND MIX OF MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS TO REALLY SET THE PERFECT MOOD OF A SONG."
