Featured on this new CD collection for your perennial enjoyment are some of the best male song stylists of the last fifty years, performers whose recordings will never be forgotten and who can be credited with singing some of the best song standards ever composed. Frank Sinatra is acknowledged as probably the finest popular singer of the last five decades, so it is appropriate that Ol' Blue Eyes, as he is known to millions of fans worldwide, should kick off the programme of music here. Sinatra brings his swinging style to All The Way and also adds On The Sunny Side Of The Street and On The Road To Mandalay. The laidback vocal style of veteran crooner Perry Como is also heard to full advantage on the standards Blue Skies, I Love You and All Through The Day. Bing Crosby was another singer known for his laidback vocal style and with total worldwide sales of more than three hundred million records during the last fifty years, the late singer can also claim to be the all-time best-selling recording artist. Michael Jackson and Madonna, eat your heart out! Crosby's many classics included the perennial White Christmas (which alone has sold more than forty million copies) but here he reminds us of his wonderful singing style with renditions of An Apple For The Teacher, April Played The Fiddle, I Have Eyes and You're A Sweet Little Heartache. Our line-up of world-class vocalists is completed by the late Brook Benton whose sophisticated styling was heard on record for over forty years. Here Benton performs Think Twice, Lie To Me and Revenge and reminds us of what a sad loss his death was to the world of popular music.
