wow!

if you are a fan just go buy it. you will never hear him better. it's a minimalist recording and his voice is absolutely magnificent.

as good a vocal recording as I have ever heard. completely enveloping. smooth as butter. like getting a big vocal hug.

enjoy!

Yes! I've heard a test pressing on the Kronos/A95 combo, and it was fantastic! And apparently it went down a storm at AXPONA too.
Ordered a few copies to have at the store...

I don't think you will have any trouble getting help to flip that particular record every 10-12 minutes, once they hear it. it's very compelling music. the additional performance of the 45 in this case has to be experienced.

there are three cuts per side, with 4 sides.

Excited to give Dean a listen. It's waiting at home in the wrapper.

Planning to hear it soon too.

But have to travel quite a distance....8500 miles...but I'm sure it will be worth the effort and time.

I've never heard Dean but love Frank. Is it a no-brainer in that case or is he an acquired taste?

I am Frank all the way, nobody has his timing and brass.
Have recently started listening to Dean, different timing but very good.

Frank sings about love and things but Dean sings more about the sensual side of love and things, his playboy image.

On a side note, for some silly movie watching check out the Matt Helm movies, classic Dean! I love them, but then again I love cheesy movies. Spoofs every spy movie before and after brilliantly.

I bought this LP in Hong Kong pressed by Music on Vinyl which normally doesn't make very good pressings. Fantastic recording and great music and a must for Dean Martin fans and I can only imagine how much better the analog productions pressing will sound.

Thanks for nothing Mr.Tinn! My wife heard the cut Blue Moon from upstairs, ran down , grabbed me and we proceeded to slow dance. Now I can't get her out of my listening room and I've lost the sweet spot to boot. And by the way the Dean Martin LP is all that you said and more.
