A suave and handsome young
Mel Tormé could charm the socks off a turtle, not to mention his adoring fans in the '40s and '50s. This 25-track collection is a well-chosen program featuring many of
Tormé's most beloved interpretations of jazz and pop standards. In fact, it's as good a compilation, save a complete box set, as you might find. The many highlights include "A Foggy Day," "A Cottage for Sale," "April in Paris," "Top Hat, White Tie and Tails," "Blue Moon," "Something's Gotta Give," "Nice Work If You Can Get It," and "Lullabye of Birdland." Look for this at a good price, take it home, and enjoy
Tormé in his prime.
