Our Take

Ah, Fred Astaire, the man who danced his way into our hearts and onto the big screen. The Singles Collection 1923-1942 gives us a glimpse into the early years of this legendary performer's career.

From the classic hits like "Cheek to Cheek" to the lesser-known gems like "I Love Louisa," this album is a treasure trove of Astaire's best work. His smooth vocals and impeccable timing are out of this world, transporting us back to a time when elegance and grace ruled the stage.

The production quality may not be up to today's standards, but that's all part of the charm. It's like listening to a scratchy old record on your grandma's gramophone - a bit nostalgic, a bit quaint, but undeniably delightful.

One can't help but feel a pang of nostalgia listening to these tunes. It's like watching an old black and white movie on a rainy Sunday afternoon - comforting, familiar, and oh so enjoyable.

All in all, Fred Astaire's Singles Collection is a must-have for any fan of classic Hollywood musicals. So slip on your dancing shoes, pour yourself a cocktail, and let Mr. Astaire sweep you off your feet with his timeless tunes. You won't regret it.

About the artist

Fred Astaire

Ah, the one and only Fred Astaire. The man who glided across the silver screen with the grace of a swan and the charm of a true Hollywood legend. Known for his impeccable footwork, smooth vocals, and effortless style, Astaire left an indelible mark on the world of entertainment. Born in 1899 in Omaha, Nebraska, Astaire's career spanned over seven decades, making him one of the most prolific performers of his time. He first rose to fame in the 1930s as one half of the iconic dance duo with Ginger Rogers, dazzling audiences with their on-screen chemistry and captivating routines. But Astaire was more than just a dancer. He also had a remarkable singing voice, with hits like "Cheek to Cheek" and "Puttin' On the Ritz" showcasing his vocal talents. His smooth crooning combined with his effortless dancing made him a true triple threat in every sense of the word. Despite his legendary status, Astaire remained humble and down-to-earth throughout his career. He never let fame get to his head, always staying true to his roots and his love for performing. His influence can still be felt in the world of dance and music today, with artists across genres citing him as a major inspiration. Fred Astaire was and always will be a true icon of the Golden Age of Hollywood. His legacy lives on through his timeless performances and his enduring influence on the world of entertainment. Fred, we'll always remember you as the man who danced his way into our hearts and left us wanting more.
