Italian Love Songs

I purchased this CD from Amazon after reading all the rave reviews about it on this website! OMG!!!! What an amazing CD! What memories this music brings back to me!

As a young girl, I can remember my mother and father singing many of these Dean Martin Italian Love Songs to me! My mother and father LOVED Dean Martin, Jerry Vale, Perry Como, etc, etc. My mother especially ADORED Dean Martin...and I'm beginning to understand exactly why!

With a smoothe, velvety voice that brings me to tears, drop-dead handsome gorgeous good looks, an incredibly laid-back & irreverent stage presence and that Italian thing going on...Dean had it all! What a man! Too bad he was so under-recognized!

This CD is incredible with exceptional, crystal-clear quality. I recall listening to many Dean Martin songs on dad's hi-fi! Such good memories of mom singing "Return To Me" while cooking in the kitchen and dad singing "In Napoli" while working in the yard...I remember each and every one of the tracks on this incredible CD from my childhood!

Buy this CD...Dean Martin is sensational...you won't be disappointed!

Dean Martin has a wonderful voice. I love this CD it's so Italian it makes me want to pore a glass of wine and sing along.

Dean Martin was always eager to be a Pop Star, have radio hits, and be beloved. He sang with a Bing Crosby croon, a European angst, and a grin a wink that others still try to emulate. Elvis Presley, the so-called rebel, took Dean's deep throated swing to tenor and lows and made his ballads a fine copy..just listen to Elvis's early attempts. Pure Dean.
This is a compendium of Dean's Italian songs. Dean always sounded comfortable with the dramatic lyrics of an Italian love song, even more than contempory compadre Frank. + Dean had humor that others couldn't match. Frank Sinatra may have been the consummate saloon singer, but Dean was the best at making people at ease.
This CD gathers bunches of his Italian amore signatores. There are the hits, "That's Amore", "Return to Me", + cannelloni like "Innamorata" and "Come Back to Sorrento".
This CD offers a bono note with due glasses of Barolo, the HiFi set at 5, the sofa warm and cozy. and then...
Volare! away we fly!!

Love it more than expected. Thanks for the prompt shipping of a great product!

Totally agree with Frank Sinatra -- when Dean Martin died on Christmas morning what a treat for the angels in Heaven!
