Andy Williams was one of the last great American traditional pop singers to emerge before the 60's rock revolution largely put the genre on the endangered species list. Yet such was Williams masterfully cool vocal panache that he not only thrived in the decade (and beyond) but hosted one of its most successful television variety hours in the bargain. The 23 songs here bookend the decade well, gathering together many of the singer's romantic standouts from the era. His "Love Is a Many Splendored Thing" displays the operatic power of his voice, one that could just as persuasively adapt to the jazzy, Brazilian cadences of Bacharach's "The Look of Love" or the breezy R&B of Stevie Wonder's "My Cherie Amour." Showcasing another facet of his career, this collection largely revolves around core tracks from Williams' film soundtrack work during the era. While it may overlook his signature "Moon River," it more than compensates with some choice album cuts and other overlooked gems, like his powerful "Unchained Melody" (from The Uninvited), a lush, romantically inviting solo version of "Let It Be Me" (mistakenly credited as a duet with Claudine Longet), and a breezy "Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You." His hit theme renditions from Love Story, The Godfather and Romeo and Juliet are also included, additional evidence of William's pop-cultural impact in an era that was anything but friendly to his chosen style.
