Andy Williams has always been a favorite singer of mine. I watched his show with my parents each week for years. This CD brought back wonderful memories for me.
The quality of the recordings was excellent. And the songs included were a great variety of his work. The CD arrived is excellent condition. |

| As a child growing up in the fifties and sixties, my Mother, a full time homemaker always had the radio on while doing the house work and the cooking. Andy Williams was one of the big stars that got a lot of playtime. I decided to purchase this greatest hits CD to help round out my audio collection and entertain Mom. |

Andy Williams could take a song and turn it into an artistic masterpiece. His strong voice was able to convey the slightest of emotional nuances to make every song a meaningful one and a short story as well. He remains one of the greatest male vocalists of the twentieth century; and this CD gives us sixteen of his most requested songs.
"Can't Get Used To Losing You" proves this all so easily. Andy also used his own vocals to create the effect that there were two of him singing the song. The slight echo of Andy's voice on numbers including "Can't Get Used To Losing You" really impresses me. The strings also work wonders for the musical arrangement; and Andy never misses a beat! "Red Roses For A Blue Lady" features Andy singing at his very best; the arrangement places Andy squarely in the spotlight as he sings this classic love ballad. The backup vocalists harmonize to perfection and the arrangement overall lacks nothing--love that brass!
"Moon River" was one of Andy's greatest hits and most requested songs; I believe his television show often opened with part of this song. Andy delivers "Moon River" like the champ that he is and the ballad is very romantic as Andy sings it. "Born Free" gets the royal treatment; Andy's excellent diction bolsters his performance and the backup vocalists harmonize well.
I really like "Days Of Wine And Roses;" Andy sings this with panache and sensitivity. The strings help the arrangement, too. "More" is another coup for Andy who sings this with all his heart and soul. Another highlight on this fantastic album is easily "What Now My Love." "What Now My Life" features Andy's voice singing clearly and conveying all the subtle nuances of emotion to make this a powerful performance.
The album ends with "The Impossible Dream;" and it makes an excellent, strong ending for the album.
Of course, fans of Andy Williams will probably want this in their collection although it is best suited for a more casual fan. Andy's artistry is displayed very well on this album and I wonder why Andy isn't remembered the way he deserves to be remembered. Moreover, if you like classic pop vocals, you are bound to appreciate this album of just some of Andy William's most requested songs.
