 fine compilation from the '80s even though a bit too brief December 29, 2007

Wayne Newton still continues to entertain us after so many years. His contributions to the arts are remarkable; and this album gives us ten musical numbers recorded by Wayne more recently. Listen for a much more mature Wayne Newtown with a lower pitched voice; but his voice remains a fine musical instrument.
"You Don't Know What You've Got (Until You Lose It)" gives us a rock and country flavored ballad with Wayne's vocals in the spotlight. Wayne swings sweet and low to make this number shine; and he never sings a superfluous note. The musical arrangement enhances the number, too. Great start for an album! "U.S. Male" sounds like something Elvis might have sang; and Wayne delivers this country flavored ballad like the pro that he is! Moreover, listen for Wayne to deliver his signature song "Danke Schoeen" very, very well. I predict that you will enjoy "Danke Schoeen" very much; and I really like the arrangement for the piano on "Danke Schoeen."
"Daddy Don't You Walk So Fast" sounds terrific; I don't know how else to describe it but Wayne makes "Daddy Don't You Walk So Fast" a masterpiece with an incredible delivery of this number.
"Here Comes My Baby" has a great soft rock beat and Wayne sounds great. "Red Roses For A Blue Lady" sounds like a symphony as the more mature Wayne delivers this flawlessly. His excellent diction makes "Red Roses For A Blue Lady" into a huge highlight of this album.
The album ends with a song called "T-R-O-U-B-L-E;" Wayne sings this country style ballad with energy and his voice sounds stronger than ever! I love it! The female backup vocalists harmonize well.
My only complaint is that we don't get an extra song or two on this CD. Yes, I know--it's inexpensive; but still, come on! Ten songs is short. I will make this a four star review because I am disappointed that they couldn't add at least one more song.
Overall, this still remains a great place to start for the casual Wayne Newton fan who wants to know just how beautifully Wayne can sing in our times. Wayne always sang flawlessly; and this album proves he's not losing his stride.
Thank you, Wayne!

If you've seen Wayne Newton in Las Vegas from the 80's to the present, this CD is for you. The CD includes his hits re-recorded and "new" songs. It's a great CD.

This is a great set. With the exception of Danke it's an album that you can almost envision Elvis making had he lived longer, especially U. S. Male (different song than the one Elvis did). Great stuff! Well worth the very low price it costs to buy from an Amazon seller.
Wayne on record is better than he's given credit for being. He's top notch and very unique.

Wayne Newtown takes a lot of kidding, but he's actually very talented. There's a reason why he became the top attraction in Las Vegas, despite only having a few hit songs. Only four of his songs actually made the pop Top 40: "Danke Schoen", "Red Roses For a Blue Lady", "Daddy Don't You Walk So Fast" and "Years". All those songs are on this CD, although with the exception of "Years", they are re-recordings (and "Years" is a remixed version of the hit). The other six songs on this CD are songs that Wayne had never recorded before, as far as I know. So, this is more or less a regular Wayne Newtown album with four hit songs tossed in. It's actually a pretty good album. Wayne is in good voice here, and most of the songs suit his singing style. Suprisingly, one of Wayne's best performances is on the Cat Stevens song "Here Comes My Baby". Other highlights included the hits (of course) and the new song "U.S. Male". Wayne's fans (you know who you are) should enjoy this CD.

The man is Las Vegas. I have loved Wayne's songs since I was a kid. And I am not old I am only 21. I took a friend to see Wayne in concert and brought them around. Listen to this album and if you don't like or know Wayne you will.
