Jack Jones - Curtain Time (1968) [2005] CD-Rip

"Curtain Time" was originally issued on vinyl in 1968, as MCA/Universal was trying to make every last penny they could off the Jack Jones catalog that they acquired from Kapp. This CD features an excellent mix of showtunes that Jones recorded, and they're not all the predictable ones you've seen repeated in recent years for Greatest Hits collections. It's especially good to see titles from the Nelson Riddle and Billy May collaborations included here, since Jones gets far too little recognition for the legendary talent he worked with, and the amazing material he recorded, while such a very young vocalist with Kapp. For some of these songs, this is the first and only time they've been remastered for CD, so there's much worthwhile about this compilation, even if its price tag is rather steep.
