5 out of 5 stars Luciano Pavrotti: The Best (Farewell Tour).......2007-06-27

Wonderful Pavarotti sings the best of the best. His voice never ceases to amaze me. Listening pleasure at it's finest.

5 out of 5 stars Luciano Pavorotti.......2007-02-17

All the songs are wonderful, can never become tired of listening to his songs. Excellent.

5 out of 5 stars Luciano is the best!.......2007-01-20

I can't speak more highly of this collection of Pavrotti's songs. I keep this two CD pack in my car so I can enjoy it on my way to and from work. Even after I have arrived, I find myself sitting in my car waiting for a song to end. Walking out on a song seems sacriligious. While I grew up listening to Caruso and Lanza, there is no question that Pavrotti is the Master! Although, I do have to admit Pavrotti has the greater advantage of modern recording technology to better present his talent than Caruso and Lanza had. However, Lanza definitely didn't have the power that Pavrotti has. With Caruso, we will never know... I highly recommend this collection of Pavrotti's, if you are a Pavrotti fan. If you aren't, buy it anyway and become one:)

5 out of 5 stars Take a Dip Into The Early 1960s.......2006-05-23

Henry Mancini gave us so much of our consciousness of the 1960s and 1970s, and yet was "out" almost as soon as he was "in."

His work became synonymous with much-despised "elevator music" in the later 1960s. This stereotype (or monotype, for his earliest works) can mislead.

For example, "Lujon" [not in this collection] was used in a movie just last year to exemplify mystery and an exotic atmosphere.

Mancini died way too young. While some would argue that he'd become a self-parody, his innate gifts compromised by relentless commercialization, you cannot take away his lasting gift to our culture. He was an original, and he captured an essence of our collective experience.

He's here in this collection, waiting round the bend, my Huckleberry friend.

5 out of 5 stars The best of the best from the best ..........2006-04-04

Sometimes the cover alone is worth the price, and this one really captures the spirit of the music. It's martini-retro and somewhat self-indulgent, but it's also great music. For all those (like myself) who've fallen in love with chill-out and lounge sounds, this is the real deal.

5 out of 5 stars If you don't have any Mancini, why not?.......2004-07-29

This album is a great survey of Henry Mancini's work. I am only 20 so I didn't get to hear all his hits the first time around and I've really enjoyed listening to this CD. There are a lot of great instrumentals here and some songs have singing as well, of course. This album made me appreciate Henry Mancini's prolific career. I would highly recommend this album.

5 out of 5 stars great set.......2004-05-24

truly one of the Best composers ever.i've always enjoyed the way His Arrangements&certain instrumentations all come together.He truly understood stylings&the vocals sound timeless.you always knew a Henry Mancini by the way it was played&arranged from start to finish.He had His own Musical Signature.

5 out of 5 stars Okay so track #1 aside..........2005-12-14

I got this as a gift last Christmas and just got around to writing a review. To start off with, let me say that I think Pavarotti is the greatest tenor ever. Period. His command of his voice (breath control, relaxation, etc.) were absolutely flawless, and no he never shouted (except when he was getting old and losing his voice...maybe), cause I have never heard anyone shout with vibrato. Anyways, yes I have heard better accompanyments than Caruso's (track #1) on a certain children's show that will remain unnamed but it features a large purple dinosaur, but that doesn't ruin the entire CD for me like it did for the other reviewers. Let's face it the rest of the CD is Pavarotti classics. You won't find a better Nessun Dorma anywhere. His La Danza is wonderful, his L'elisir is legendary and La Boheme's Rodolfo is one of, if not his truly signature role. As for the Neapolitan songs, you can't criticize him for those. It's no different than Kathleen Battle throwing in a few spirituals on her CDs. Yes, I wish there were more arias on the CD (Ah! Mes amis for instance) but still was not dissappointed by this CD at all. Buy it!

2 out of 5 stars What the heck?.......2005-09-12

I'm so glad I didn't pay for this disc, instead checking it out from the my public library. The first track, "Caruso", had me thinking I was playing the wrong CD. It's not so much that it's electronic accompaniment. It's really bad synthesizer music. Horribly bad. Inexcusably bad. Cheap-lounge-singer-who-can't-afford-a-piano bad. That train wreck of track sets exactly the worst tone, destroying the mood for the rest of the album. If it weren't for some of the later selections from La Bohème and L'Elisir d'Amore, this CD would be a total loss. Even then, these gems are completely drowned in a gushing flow of treacly Italian "classics" apparently aimed at a certain demographic of blue-haired, tittering Pavarotti fans. I don't mean to sound like a snob. It's just the bad vibe from that first track rattling me. My advice: get it from the library and listen to your favorites. Avoid everything else on pain of intense aural assault.

2 out of 5 stars Why on earth is this listed under classical music?.......2004-03-22

Pavarotti has a short but excellent repertoire that belongs in "Classical Music" (e.g. Fille du Regiment), however 99% of his recordings belong in Popular Music. Amazon folks, please get your act straight on this guy and his other two tenor friends!

2 out of 5 stars The Very Best Of Luciano Pavarotti.......2004-01-28

This weekend I purchased "The Very Best of Luciano Pavarotti", Romantica. The first track, Caruso is terrible. Classical music, opera, etc, should never be played with synthesized anything! This is especially true with voices like Pavarotti's. This first track was CHEAP and tinny sounding.

Pavarotti is good, but I think that the title is misleading.

Classical music should be with real musical instruments. Lesson #1, if it takes electricity, it's NOT a musical instrument.

      5 out of 5 stars Instrumental Legends.......2006-09-21

      Several years ago we bought this great collection for my mother-in-law, who's in her 80s, and while a lot of the music was familiar to me and my husband, she knew every song. Now it's one of our favorites, too. Anyone who loves music will appreciate this. The double-disc set contains many memorable tunes, from Hugo Winterhalter's "Canadian Sunset" to Jimmy Dorsey's "So Rare".

        3 out of 5 stars What a great collection of old standards.......2000-11-17

        This is an exciting cd. It features the hits of many of the great tunesmiths of America. What a treat!

        I belive this series showcases six composers on each cd. With this format, there's no way to go wrong with this cd. The 101 Strings do a wonderful job of performaning these songs.

        Recommendation: I think it would be wise to buy this cd if you love the standards.

        4 out of 5 stars Same As It Ever Was.......2006-05-21

        This album was released on vinyl when I was a freshman in high school - 1965!

        The same cuts and, presumably, the same recordings. I wore the spots off this record over forty years ago, and here it is.

        Mancini first came to fame with his recording of the "Theme from Peter Gunn." Conrary to what's said here by another reviewer, both Peter Gunn and Mr. Lucky were TV shows - neither one was a movie soundtrack.

        "Lujon" did come from "Mr. Lucky," but not a movie. Believe it or not, this and some of the other cool jazz on this disk were from 1950s-era television shows. "Fallout" is the stock opening sequence music from "Peter Gunn," for instance. It played at the beginning of every half-hour show.

        TV was where he started, but movies are where he ended. Mancini wrote many famous movie scores after the release of this 1965 collection - check out other sources for that.

        4 out of 5 stars It's hip to be square --.......2002-07-14

        Henry Mancini is music your mama or grandma would find appealling. If you had to by a compact disc for somebody who doesn't like music, this would be the disc to get. But seriously, Mancini's lush arrangements can be enjoyed by all generations without irony.
