The line between evangelist and entertainer has always been somewhat indistinct. But as showcased on this 43-track, double-disc collection culled from his '87-'96 recordings for Elektra/Nonesuch/Atlantic, Michael Feinstein's dedication to spreading the gospel of the American song often blurs it beyond recognition. While the singer's pedigree for the task is impeccable (a long-term stint as Ira Gershwin's assistant and early career sponsorship by Liza Minnelli), his interpretations often succeed by playing off a tense axis of fervent emotionalism and a joyous sense of irreverence.
If his readings of romantic standards can sometimes tend toward the precious, they're often balanced here by sheer dramatic power and telling insights ("Isn't It Romantic" fairly bristles with ironic chauvinism) and a few loopy curves ("The Mole People," the Sherman Brothers' "The Ugly Bug Ball," and the previously unreleased "Rhode Island Is Famous for You"). Feinstein's dedicated song archaeology is also showcased on several gems: "Violin," a duet with Liza Minnelli; "My Favorite Year," a rejected ballad for the film of that name; the sublime "lost" Gershwin classic "Ask Me Again."
Sprinkled with live performances (the forum where Feinstein's talents seem most energized) and studio outtakes and featuring a lengthy print interview with the singer, the set chronicles both the pioneering efforts of one of pop music's most successful revivalists and, crucially, the cream of his beloved American songwriters, from stalwarts Gershwin, Berlin, and Porter to later legends like Herman, Styne, Lane, Martin, and Mercer. --Jerry McCulley

Mixed feelings.......2005-10-05
This album has some GREAT songs on it; sophisticated swing being one of my favorites. However many of the other songs are too operatic and lame. I give three stars but this album is definatly worth it just for some of the better songs.
Your love for this superb collection will be here to stay..........2002-07-18
The magnificently talented Michael Feinstein has made one wonderful album after another for nearly two decades. Now that Elektra and Rhino have put together this anthology, I am blown away by the versatility and diversity in Feinstein's recorded output. Such amazing rare gems, combined with the most beloved favorites in the history of American Popular Song. Assembled with wit, intelligence, and obvious affection on the part of the record company, this set is a keeper. You'll love it!
He's done it again.......2002-07-15
Is there anything this man can't sing? This collection is so varied as to be the definitive collection of songs for any occassion.
This is perfect background music for a dinner party for a whole group but especially for two. Light, romantic and just gorgeous. You just can't go wrong when Michael Feinstein is your musical choice.
Way to go Michael, you've done it again!
Absolutely 'S WONDERFUL!.......2002-06-10
There are very few contemporary performers who can hold their own with the truly great interpreters of American popular song. Michael Feinstein is truly the ONLY performer of the "younger" generation who really understands what these songs are all about. His incredible knowledge of this music, and his enthusiasm and passion for it have fueled his career. Rhino Records has done a truly outstanding job of putting together an anthology that exemplifies why Mr. Feinstein has become so beloved by audiences around the world. The packaging is excellent, and filled with interesting photos and background information about many of the selections.
This collection not only contains all the favorites one would expect, but a neat group of surprises too. I especially love the duets with people like Liza Minnelli and Rosemary Clooney, and the various collaborative efforts with songwriters like Jule Styne and Burton Lane accompanying Michael at the piano.
This collection is a classic to be treasured. Bravo Michael!
Bravo Rhino!
A beautiful 2 disc CD-another hit for Michael.......2002-06-09
I have every CD Michael has ever made and this is by far one of the best ones because of Michael's range in singing and his wonderful singing voice. I love his duets with Rosemary Clooney and Liza Minelli. He is a wonderful performer on this double CD and am looking foward to the next CD.

Marches II.......2004-01-17
i'm trying out for drum major, and part of the try outs is marching an L-pattern, the kind of pattern that you would do in a regular drum major competition. it shows your parade marching skills, your ability to stick to tempo, and your directing abilities. so for tryouts, i need to pick a march and this cd has so many to choose from, its awesome! and its also great if your a band director looking for a good march for your marching band to play, or if you just like listening to John Sousa, who rocks. yay for this cd!

March Gems from Both Sides of the Atlantic.......2003-06-01
Although most listeners will probably recognize only a couple of selections from this album, there is much worth listening to here, in my opinion, mostly in the area of military/patriotic marches.
As would be expected in an album played by various British military bands, marches written for various parts of the British armed forces are well represented. Included are "Bond of Friendship" (Coldsteam Guards), "The 3 D.G.'s" (3rd Dragoon Guards), "Fortune Favors the Bold" (Allied Forces Rapid Reaction Corps), "Salamanca", "Queen's Division", "Quickest and Best", "Battleaxe Company", "Swift and Sure" (Royal Corps of Signals), "Blow Away the Morning Dew" (Kneller Hall), "Ship to Shore" (Maritime Division of the Royal Corps of Transport), "Agrippa", "First Post", and "Pride of Lions" (Adjutant General's Corps). Another British march, written in a lighter style, "Cockney Cocktail", incorporates several themes associated with London.
Mainland Europe is represented by a couple of marches written by German composers, one in a British style, "Viscount Nelson", by Wilhelm Zehle, and the more traditonal "Regimentgruss", by Steinbeck. A Russian flavor is also present with "Red Square Review".
North American marches include two Sousa favorites, and one that is not so well known. "Washington Post" was written for the newspaper of the same name, and was one of the most popular pieces used to dance to in the 1890s. "El Capitan" was taken from Sousa's most popular operetta, and was played by the Sousa Band one of the few times they actually marched, in this case in the victory parade for Admiral Dewey in New York City after the Spanish American War. "The Rifle Regiment" is less well known, and was written for the "Old Guard" (3rd U. S. Infantry at Fort Myer, Va., the oldest U. S. Infantry unit in active service). One of Edwin Franco Goldman's best, "Chimes of Liberty", is also featured, and the rare Canadian march, "Marche Vanier", and finally the equally rare march by an Afro-American, "St. Louis Blues March", by the great W. C. Handy, which was popularized by the equally great Glenn Miller.
A fine addition to any march collection.
