Yes I Can! The Sammy Davis Jr. Story
: :Onstage, nobody could match the wham of Sammy Davis Jr. Best known now as arguably the coolest member of the Rat Pack, Sammy Davis Jr. was one of the world's great entertainers, a guy capable of funny impersonations, heartwarming ballads, and lively jazz-inspired songs--usually in the same set. Granted, Sinatra's vocal skills overshadowed Davis on record, but what other musician has found such success as a writer, Broadway star, vocalist, dancer, and comedian (all the while helping to break down racial barriers)? With Yes I Can! The Sammy Davis Jr. Story, ...

The Best of the Columbia Years: 1943-1952
: :This four-disc, 97-track collection compiles the highlights of the first major period of Frank Sinatra's solo career, beginning with 1943's 'Close To You,' and ending with 1952's 'Why Try to Change Me Now.' Sinatra was the preeminent singing idol of American teenagers (the female ones, at least) during this period, thanks to the dreamily smooth crooning style he exhibits here on 'People Will Say We're in Love,' 'I Should Care,' 'Embraceable You,' and dozens of others. Sometimes the still-callow singer isn't up to the material ('Ol' Man River'), sometimes the material ...

The Early Years: 1930-34
: :As a young singer Cab Calloway was at his most exuberant, and The Early Years: 1930-1934 has plenty of that exuberance on offer. In 1930, just before his recording debut, he took over a powerful band called the Missourians, and their best soloists (R.Q. Dickerson on trumpet and Thornton Blue on clarinet) can be heard on the first of these four CDs, which includes a startling 'St. Louis Blues' as well as the original version of the famous 'Minnie the Moocher.' Calloway, in spite of a rather nasal tone, was a ...
