5 stars A Great American Songbook
In an album that contains many of the finest songs ever written by Berlin, Porter, Gershwin and others, Fred Astaire proves that it phrasing and timing, and not voice, that make a great singer.

3 stars Astaire - the one & only
No question that Fred Astaire could dance and sing. This CD incorporates his most famous, (& best), tunes.

Nevertheless, a CD worth having in your library.
