Synopsis

Album Description

A long awaited solo album featuring one of the best British male singers from the WWII era, who was invited to sing with Tommy Dorsey's orchestra in America! Mainly standards, the 26 tracks here are either backed by Stanley Black or Robert Farnon, two of Britain's top conductors/arrangers from that period, and most of the tracks have not been on CD until now.

CD Reviews

Wonderful singer

JJA Kiefte | Tegelen, Nederland | 04/18/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Dubbed "the British Bing Crosby" by his employer Roy Fox in the thirties (a sobriquet Dennis hated), Dennis freely admitted Crosby's influence on his singing style (but who wasn't influenced by Der Bingle in those days?). After his period with the Dance Bands (covered under his own name on Living Era, but also on Living Era and Vocalion issues of Ambrose, Fox and Hylton) in his mature style, which is on fine display on this very welcome release, he is very much his own man however (and without the strain Crosby had in his upper register). Mostly a collection of ballads in the typical post-war style initiated by the Stordahl-Sinatra tandem, Dennis's warm voice, fine rhythmic feel and flawless diction and intonation are a joy to the ear. Informative liner notes, info about recording dates (alas not about the labels) and backing orchestras are a welcome extra to a long overdue reissue of one of Britains leading singers.
