Title: An anti-tribute to Rosemary Clooney
Product review: I bought this cd based on the rave reviews at Amazon. Boy, was I sorry! Those listeners were obviously raised watching American Idol where "slightly above average voices" are considered "fantastic". This album lacks everything that made Clooney great. Even the songs were unrecognizable as hers except maybe for track nine (It Never Entered My Mind). Rosie sang with tremendous heart AND an incredible voice. Miss Boone, though pleasant, has no range and definitely none of Rosie's energy. In every song I kept waiting for that special something to happen and was left disappointed over and over again. In fact, I was bored to tears. If you love Rosie, this cd will definitely not be a welcome addition to your collection. If you like tribute albums done recently, try Tony Bennett singing Frank Sinatra's hits or Bennett singing Billy Holliday. Both of those tributes would have made those artists proud.
