Customer Reviews:

Completing a great trilogy of easy-listening compilations.......2005-03-31

Following the success of Music to watch girls by and More music to watch girls by, this volume contains further classic easy-listening music from the fifties and sixties. This type of music has a significant fan base in Britain as the more recent series of compilations (Memories are made of this) proves.

This collection begins and ends with Tom Jones, though neither of the tracks (What's new pussycat, Help yourself) would have been considered easy listening back in the ties - they were among Tom's rocking hits. Between those two classics, there are plenty of other equally brilliant tracks.

Apart from Tom Jones, some other great singers here are represented by more than one song - Andy Williams (Spooky, House of bamboo, Speak softly love), Petula Clark (My love, This is my song), Tony Bennett (Shadow of your smile, Stranger in Paradise) , Johnny Mathis (Twelfth of never, Misty) and Dinah Washington (Unforgettable, Mad about the boy).

There are other famous classics here including Volare (Dean Martin), Mack the knife (Bobby Darin), I say a little prayer (Aretha Franklin), Smile (Nat King Cole), Always something there to remind me (Sandie Shaw), God only knows (Beach boys), It's impossible (Perry Como), You're my world (Cilla Black), Secret love (Doris Day), Dream a little dream of me (Mama Cass) and Light my fire (Jose Feliciano).

Of all the tracks here, Je T'aime moi non plus (Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin) has the most interesting history. Serge originally recorded I as a duet with Brigitte Bardot but was not allowed to release that version at the time (it has since been released on CD) so he recorded another version - this time with English-born but French-based Jane Birkin. The BBC banned it but that only served to generate interest in the record, which became a huge hit all over Europe. It went to number one in Britain and many other countries

I was particularly pleased to find Cherry pink and apple blossom white (Perez Prado), Guantanamera (Sandpipers), Windows of the world (Scott Walker) and A walk in the Black Forest (Horst Jankowski) as I didn't have those tracks elsewhere on CD at the time and all of them are brilliant.

This is a magnificent compilation of easy listening music from the fifties and sixties. With 43 tracks, it contains more tracks than the first two volumes (38 and 40 tracks respectively) but the quality is the same.

This album rocks, baby!.......2002-08-18

"House of Bamboo" alone is worth the price! Fun stuff, but I agree with the other reviewer, skip the orgasm song! Yikes!
