Our Take

Ah, Al Jolson - the great entertainer of yesteryear, known for his iconic voice and larger-than-life persona. This latest album, fittingly titled "The Great," is a nostalgic trip down memory lane to the golden age of showbiz.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a time when Vaudeville reigned supreme and jazz was just taking its first steps. Jolson's vocals are as powerful and emotive as ever, with each track dripping with the essence of a bygone era.

The production on this album is top-notch, with the instrumentation providing the perfect backdrop for Jolson's powerhouse vocals. The brass section soars, the strings weep, and the piano tinkles away, creating a lush sonic landscape that perfectly complements Jolson's expressive delivery.

Standout tracks include the bombastic "Swanee" and the heartfelt "Sonny Boy," both of which showcase Jolson's vocal range and ability to convey raw emotion through song. However, it's the spirited rendition of "My Mammy" that truly steals the show, with Jolson's infectious energy practically bursting through the speakers.

In conclusion, "The Great" by Al Jolson is a time capsule of a record that pays tribute to one of the greatest showmen of all time. If you're a fan of classic crooners and toe-tapping tunes, this album is an absolute must-listen. Jolson may have been a product of his time, but his music continues to captivate audiences decades later. So grab a martini, sit back, and let the magic of Al Jolson sweep you off your feet.
