| Perry Como adds his own distinctive style to some 1970's classics on this great 2-in-1 CD collection. He added dignity to any song he ever sang, and on this collection he does so as well, even to songs that are pretty far from his usual style. I highly recommend this CD. |

And I Love You So/It's Impossible is a great CD that has all the tracks from two of Perry Como's record albums entitled And I Love You So and It's Impossible. The sound quality is excellent; and Perry's mature voice really sounds fine, too. The artwork is also impressive.
The CD starts off with Perry crooning his best on "And I Love You So." This tune features Perry front and center as he showcases his incredible set of pipes. The musical arrangement is lush and it's the perfect accompaniment to Perry's singing. "And I Love You So" makes a beautiful beginning to this album. "Killing Me Softly With Her Song" is changed from "Killing Me Softly With His Song;" and Perry aces this like the master he always was. The guitars in the arrangement are used to great advantage, too. There's also "For The Good Times;" this ballad shines like gold when Perry sings it beyond perfection. Perry sings with great sensitivity; and I love every minute of it!
"Sing" is a song I associate with Karen Carpenter; Perry makes it his own with a fine interpretation that really is pleasing to the ear; the brass on this number enhances the beauty of the melody. "Tie a Yellow Ribbon 'Round the Ole Oak Tree" is another son that shines equally bright when Perry delivers it with all his heart and soul. The backup chorus works wonders for this tune, too. "I Believe In Music" gets the royal treatment from Perry who performs this with panache and a great chorus in the background.
"It's Impossible" is easily one of Perry's greatest hits--ever. Perry croons this flawlessly and it's a classic love song that will never be out of style. Perry performs this with incredible sensitivity and it gives me chills every time I hear it! "Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head" is another marvelous highlight; Perry sings this with all his might and the strings make the melody all the more beautiful.
"Something" is a George Harrison love song that Frank Sinatra once praised as one of the very best love songs ever written. Perry sings "Something" with a few tempo changes that really allow him to put his own stamp on "Something." "(They Long to Be) Close to You" is a splendid "mood music" number with excellent singing by Perry and the backup chorus. Great flutes on "(They Long to Be) Close to You!"
The CD ends with Perry performing "We've Only Just Begun;" this charming ballad is the perfect ending for this lush CD. The arrangement is very elegant and pretty.
Perry Como was and is a giant crooner of the entire twentieth century; and we are far better off for his sharing his talents with us. I highly recommend this for fans of the great Perry Como; and people who enjoy classic pop vocals will not be disappointed.

Perfect moments

| My wife and I recently built our retirement home in the foothills. Our upstairs bedroom looks across our balcony at the horse pasture across the arroyo. Perfect moments are those early mornings or late evenings when we recline against the headboard of our bed, enjoy the fire in our fireplace, ... and listen to CD's like this. Rock on, Young Folks! We did when we were your age. But, Lord, thank you for music like this that gives us such perfect moments at this stage of our lives. |

Mr. C

| If you're a Perry Como fan, this one is a must. I have many of his vinyl rpm albums and one of my favorites is titled "Sing to Me, Mr. C", which I can't find in CD. This one is a very good substitute. The song selections are on target, the audio is very good, and Mr. C is, as always, exceptional. |
