What's In Your CD Player/iPod/MP3/Computer/Hi Fi, Right Now?

[paul jh]

Your nice new photo is clear and bright, John, but I do miss seeing the little dog.

I just spent a relaxing 80 minutes listening to Disc 2 of The Singer's Singer. Lots of classic MM ballads on there. I repeated You're Sensational, The Shadow of Your Smile, and even Maria (but I prefer the mix on Through the Years).

[Marian]

I miss your old photo too John. You'll have to add it to your facebook page!

[john]

I never liked the photo to be honest, it was just the best of a bad bunch I could find at the time. I wasn't all that well at the time either. Barnie is still in the photo album though.

[Sandra]

Lena and Harry re the Sinatra CD or favourites are 'If I Had You' and 'The Gypsy'


John: Don Cornell sings that beautiful song from 'Susan Slept Here' HOLD MY HAND

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Yes, every song on this CD is heavenly isn't it Sandra. The Gypsy was a Billy Reid special for Dorothy Squires.
What about " A Garden In The Rain" and " A Nightingale sang in Berkely Square. Sinatra at his best.

GARY WILLIAMS...MORE THAN YOU KNOW.

[john]

Yes Sandra, Don's one and only hit in the U.K. as well, I believe. Number one as well.

[mariana44]

Did Don Cornell also record "Stranger in Paradise" ?
Going back to Mark Wynter--yes of course it was "Venus in Blue Jeans"--"Venus" is another song completely-sung by Johnny Mathis--not sure who else.

[john]

Didn't Dickie Valentine make a recording of "Venus" Marian?

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Don Cornell did record "Stranger In Paradise " Marian, I think nearly all the crooners around recorded that song.
Dickie Valentine sang "Venus "

We are listening to Jerry Vale singing "'Moonlight Becomes You" one of my favourite recordings.

[john]

Almost as nice as his "In The Chapel In The Moonlight" Lena and Harry.

[ROBERT M.]

Margaret Whiting singing the children's song Hoppy Topper and Me........beautifully

[Sandra]

Steve Wright playing 'PORTRAIT' on Sunday Love Songs


His remarks: 'Go for it Matt. Love it. Love it Love it!!

[Lena & Harry Smith]

We missed that Sandra, we were listening to our usual Sunday morning prog on Radio Wales..Dewi Griffiths.

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Or Jerry Vales. i'll Get By ) John
Just had a message from Frankie on GMMY about Jerry Vale and a great fan of Jerry's Scott Rogers, and his web-site...THE QUINTESSENTIAL JERRY VALE.
