Recorded between 1947 & 1950. Personnel: Tony Pastor (vocals); Rosemary Clooney, Clooney Sisters (vocals). Liner Note Author: Al Fichera. Recording information: 06/05/1947-12/30/1950. Unknown Contributor Role: Pearl Bailey. Culled from Pastor's time at Columbia, the 24 tracks here include several unreleased sides and songs that originally appeared as singles in the late '40s and early '50s. Pastor sings many of the tracks -- mostly novelty numbers like "I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Cocoanuts" -- but the guest vocalists are more compelling and bring out better performances from Pastor as well. The Clooney Sisters provide backing on "The Lady From Twenty-Nine Palms" and Rosemary Clooney turns in a velvet-smooth rendition of "Grieving for You." Pearl Bailey is featured on two tracks here: "Mamie Is Mimi" and the hard-swinging "For You My Love." Although relegated to the background for the vocal-dominant selections here, Pastor's band still packs some of the punch exhibited on their early-'40s recordings. ~ Wade Kergan Musical Guests Rosemary Clooney The Clooney Sisters Pearl Bailey   Compilation Appearances Vol. 2-Big Bands Of The Swingi Juke Box:original Band Hits From The Goodnight Angel   Associated Artists and Works Clooney, Rosemary   Technical Info Release Date : 03/14/2006 Original Release Date : 2003 Catalog ID : 7435 Label : Collectables Records Number of Discs : 1 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Mono SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00090431743522    Related Videos Randy Jackson: Randy Jack...
