"Not only was Sal Mineo one of the best actors around but he also recorded a smash hit album in 1957 and this release captures all those songs and 2 bonus unreleased tracks that burn up the stereo with Sal's sexy voice and also a very impressive collection of pictures in the cd's book.Sal might not have been the best singer but he still has an incredibly sexy voice and I really enjoy this album.I don't know why it sounds so much better than the previous released versions of these songs but I love the way they sound on this!!!I hope Hollywood follows by releasing more of Sal's movies on video and I am also excited about the new movie about Sal's life starring Thomas Ian Nicholas and directed by Joey Travolta! It seems Sal Mineo's star is on the rise again and he deserves it no questions asked! I highly recomend this cd!!!! 5 stars!!"

Great forgotten music

"Just on a whim I bought this recording to see what all the hoopla was about Sal Mineo. What a suprise! With each time listening throught the CD, I found the songs more and more enjoyable. What a rare find. Now i'm looking for all his recordings from all labels.The sound quality is excellent--including the stereo recordings given the vintage of these sessions. My old 78s of his pale in comparison!!If you're at all in doubt about this compilation--don't!"

A TWIST and a PINCH of STEREO!!!

"I am a huge Sal Mineo fan and collector. I own so many versions of his songs but this cd is by far the best! It's about time Sal Mineo's music was released in excellent stereo sound. It makes such a dramatic difference. These songs were so popular in the late 1950's when Sal Mineo was one of the hottest movie stars on the planet and I am so so so very happy this cd was released!"
