An Evening With Al Jolson [Import]

Editorial Reviews
Album Description
Lucky indeed were those who got to spend an evening with The World’s Greatest Entertainer, because nobody, but nobody, could belt out a tune like Al Jolson. Few remain of those who actually saw the man perform live; fewer still are the CDs available that are devoted to his work (a situation about which our customers have been loudly complaining, we might add). So, we have found a performance from his astonishing, late-’40s comeback tour that will further cement his legend in the minds of his fans, and expose the uninitiated to the force of nature that Jolie was on stage. Backed by Lou Bring’s Orchestra and Chorus, Jolson tears through 20 of the songs that made him famous (and that he made famous) in an hour-long virtuoso performance full of the heart-on-the-sleeve passion that only he could summon up. The end was near for Al, and he sings as if he knew it.
