Product Description Classic hits - digitally remastered and available at midprice! Tracks include "Release Me," "Quando Quando Quando," "Spanish Eyes," "A Man Without Love," "There Goes My Everything," "The Way It Used to Be," "The Last Waltz" and more. .com Engelbert Humperdinck, who at the circa 1968 height of his career shared a manager with fellow hunk Tom Jones, has never enjoyed the campy appreciation that has come to Jones in recent years--mostly because he's way too earnest compared to the teasingly all-man singer of "What's New Pussycat" and "She's a Lady." Humperdinck certainly deserves a place on some space-age bachelor's mix tape with the quietly ebullient "Quando Quando Quando," the quietly invitational "Winter World of Love," and the quietly fatalistic "Les Bicyclettes de Belsize"--maybe yours. Or at least your dad's. --Rickey Wright

so many great songs, so many compilations
Engelbert is long overdue a three disc box set to contain some of the fantastic songs from the first dozen or so years of his nearly four decade long career, those melodies that hold so many memories, sung to perfection by "The King of Romance"; for now they are scattered among dozens of CDs, and to get all one's favorites means purchasing multitudes of compilations. Though practically all will include "Release Me", there are lesser known beauties that are "must haves". This is a terrific grouping, and the rarity on it is "Ten Guitars", and to a lesser extent "Everybody Knows (We're Through)", which is sung from a woman's point of view, and from his first "Release Me" LP, the wonderful Herman's Hermits hit "There's a Kind of Hush (All Over the World)", and "My World" (sometimes listed as "Il Mondo").Also included is the song I could listen to for hours, "The Way it Used to Be", the exquisite "Les Bicyclettes de Belsize", and the waltz to end all waltzes, "The Last Waltz". These are all the original recordings, and the sound is O.K., though not as good when compared to "Ultimate Collection" or "Greatest Love Songs", which are two compilations that are on the top of the heap for excellence, and deserve to be in every Engelbert collection.The booklet insert includes a mini bio and most appreciated, a U.K. and U.S. singles chart history from 1967 to 1970, and total playing time is 43'19.

Great album to gain a new fan!!
I actually listened to Engelbert Humperdinck for the 1st time after i listens to so my mum's humming all the time, lol! So i thought to gave this album a try after some recommendations. I am glad i am not disappointed! His voice is superb, the songs are so beautiful!Eventhough i have always being always a fan of oldies, but, i usually prefer compilation albums with various artist rather than just listens to one single musician.But obviously, this album has made an exception, or maybe i should have said, Engelbert Humperdinck made an exception, i love every single song in this album, which is all his very best, such as "Release Me", "Quando, Quando, Quando".., "Am I That Easy To Forget ", "A Man Without Love", "There Goes My Everything", and my most favourite "The Last Waltz"..The sound quality is excellent, it's an original recording remastered.., based on the info, it was first released back at the year of 1974, a good work for remastered this one.Last, but not least, for sure this is a great album to gain a new fan, happy listening! :)

My wife loves this cd!
This was an excellent purchase at a fair price. My wife loves her little musical present. She listens to this cd whenever she drives her car- and listens to same music on spotify when she is inside the house.

Engelbert Delivers
I'm not a huge Engelbert fan, but listened to some of his songs growing up. I only wish this greatest hits collection included "After the Lovin'." It does include most of his most popular songs and it's easy to see why he was a Vegas favorite even if he and his more popular contemporary, Tom Jones, both copied Elvis' Vegas persona a tad. Needless to say, he hits the high notes with incredible ease and sustains them. All these songs are first rate, and I think he earns a spot at the top with the great popular vocalists of the last 45 years.
