Editorial Reviews

Two CD set. Al Jolson became "The World's Greatest Entertainer" in the early 20th century, and his flamboyant talent is nostalgically recalled here with "Sonny Boy", "Swanee", "My Mammy" and many more. 40 tracks. Primo.

This is a great set if you like Al Jolson and the music of the 20's, 30's and 40's. Jolson also does several Stephen Foster songs from the 1850's. Wonderful Americana.

Worlds greatest entertainer. Ego driven. From minstrels , to sheet music & broadway,breaking attendance records along the way,first to put runways in and taking Broadway shows on the road, first talking movie, one of the first to entertain the troops in WW2 much more. Worlds greatest ever in the first half of the 20th century . Until ELVIS.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing sound quality

Apparently Al Jolson re-recorded his greatest hits in the 1940s in high fidelity. His voice still sounded the same, but the high quality of the recordings sound so much better than the 78 rpm versions did.

altho it's not a masterpiece in recording marvel, it is of "Ok" quality. If you enjoy Al Jolson as I do, just hearing that wonderful voice and style again is quite good enough.

Bought this for my mother-in-law who has loved Al Jolson since she was a girl. The quality of the recordings are excellent, and there are so many of his songs on the CDs that there were some she had never heard before. A very talented performer with a large voice from days long gone by.

3.0 out of 5 stars Al Jolson
Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2012

Disk #1 had an issue and wouldn't play, but #2 was fine. Had to return set due to the flaw. But the recording on #2 was very good and the sound was great. Al Jolson's voice was captured the same as in the movie about him. Very good sound and too bad the one disk had an issue.

The remastering is very well done.
As well as being a great performer, Jolson had a great orchestra behind him.

4.0 out of 5 stars Le boulevard à New-York
Reviewed in France on March 19, 2013

Etrange personnage qu'Al Jolson (Asa Yoelson), qui n'est pas un jazzman mais plutôt un artiste populaire de boulevard et de music-hall, assurément influencé par le jazz dont il a été contemporain, apparaissant sur scène, ce qu'il nous est aujourd'hui difficile d'imaginer, sous son fameux maquillage de "nègre" couleur chocolat alors qu'il était lui même un juif russe immigré depuis 1911, à une époque où, ségrégation oblige, les vrais créateurs noirs du jazz n'apparaissaient pas sur les scènes officielles des grands boulevards et se produisaient dans des caveaux des bas quartiers à l'audience plus confidentielle... Né en 1886 en Lithuanie, Al Jolson est chanteur populaire à New York dès 1898; très vite, son extraordinaire présence sur scène, sa gouaille, son culot lui valent le succès; dans l'entre-deux guerres, il est célèbre sur les scènes de Broadway et interprète avec talent de très nombreuses chansons (dont entre autres "Swanee", de George Gershwin). Aujourd'hui, ces interprètations vieillies possèdent un charme suranné analogue à l'effet que nous produisent celles de nos chanteurs d'avant-guerre (Fréhel, Trenet à ses débuts, Arletty...), l'influence du jazz en plus. On est cependant étonné d'entendre le décalage considérable entre certaines chansons encore interprètées par Al Jolson en 1947 (mort en 1950) et, par exemple, Ella Fitzgerald en 1950 tant ils paraissent appartenir à des ères différentes: lui, un amuseur de boulevard d'avant-guerre, elle, une très grande artiste de jazz contemporaine... Mais Al Jolson fait toutefois partie de l'histoire du music-hall.
