100 Hits Of The Great Crooners

Once upon a time it was virtually unheard of for musical performers to

write their own songs. That was the province of a separate breed, the

professional songwriters who worked for music publishers in New York's

Brill Building, or else touted their wares down the Tin Pan Alleys of the

world. Essential to the whole process were the vocalists, because

someone had to sing the songs. These were often under contract with a

specific dance band. In the parlance of the day, these singers were often

referred to as 'crooners'. The hundred tracks on this 4-CD set are mostly

drawn from the 1950s and early 1960s - largely a mixture of standards

from the pens of classic songwriters like Cole Porter and George

Gershwin, as well as showtunes taken from musicals like My Fair Lady

and Showboat.
