Of course he's not jazz, and certainly not blues. He's just Dino. Guess I coulda gone pop since some of these tracks are covers of pop standards. But here I am. Always thought Dean Martin ranked at the top of the crooners of the day. Yes, better than Frank or Tony. Sadly he never reached that stature. Dean was an entertainer. He could do it all, tv, movies, music. Just check out that first clip. A true indicator of someone at the top of his game. For this album, Dean was not at that peak, but it'll pass. Only one exceptional track for me (no clip of course), but even not at his best, the voice was just so smooth. One lone dud which evens things out nicely. It would only reach #113 on the charts, but Dean still had his core audience, who were aging by this time. Dean himself, would age quite gracefully, carrying on until 1995, when he passed at the ripe old age of 78.
I LIKE THIS ALBUM
Worst Track - For Once In My Life
Best Track - Invisible Tears
Invisible tears in my eyes
Incredible pain in my heart
Indestructable memories are passing in review
Impossible though things may get
Improbable I will forget
Indelible memories of sweet loveable you
You're back again
So I let you in
Altough I'm only seeing pictures of the past
Those lines are not real
But somehow I feel
If I just close my eyes then maybe it will last
Invisible tears in my eyes
incredible pain in my heart
indestructible memories are passing in review
Impossible though things may get
Improbable I will forget
Indelible memories of sweet lovable you
