Adapter: Paul Johnson .
Personnel: Pat Boone (vocals).
Arrangers: Paul Johnson ; Jerry Fielding.
Before crooner Pat Boone showed the world his head-banging side with the 1997 metal-meets-swing album NO MORE MR. NICE GUY, he had been spending a fair amount of time as a purveyor of Christian music. He even started his own label to propagate his musical message, and GREATEST HYMNS collects on one convenient disc some of the finest moments from Boone's pre-metal spiritual sessions. Backed by orchestra and choir, the man who made both Little Richard and Metallica sound like safe-for-Sunday-morning fare sounds totally committed to the material: when he tackles familiar hymns such as "What a Friend We Have in Jesus," his smooth, carefully controlled voice floats easily above the megachurch-size arrangements.
This is a short compilation of gospel recordings licensed by Curb Records from Pat Boone's Lamb & Lion Records. Boone sings traditional hymns before large choirs in orchestral settings. The effect is big and solemn, and it is easy to suppose that the recordings were made in a Christian cathedral on a Sunday morning. Boone's singing is appropriately reverent. ~ William Ruhlmann Pat Boone Greatest Hymns Songs | 1. | He Leadeth Me | $0.99 | |

This is the original 1969 Warner Bros. album reissued on CD for the very first time by the Jewish Music Group!When you think of comedians in the '60's who do you think was the funniest? There can be no equal to Don Rickles, the gold standard of stand-ups. His legendary appearances on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson are the stuff of legend, and continue to be talked about. Don is a combustible fireball comic, who is like our collective sub-conscience's gone wild. You know, like if we had too many cocktails with Dean, Sammy and the guys. This album, the follow-up to his landmark tour de force "Hello Dummy!!" album from the year before. "Speaks" was recorded in front of a panel of "experts," mostly in-crowd pals of Rickles who threw all the right targets at him, like "Show Biz and Travel," "Names In The News, and of course the mandatory shredding of his friend and mentor Frank Sinatra. While Rickles was not the first comic of the "insult" genre, Shecky Greene and Shelly Berman were also known to incorporate the audience into their acts, Rickles was the first to turn his hostility towards the audience, and they loved him for it. They still do, nearly 60 years later. Rickles came up through working the blue collar Supper clubs in New York, Chicago, and eventually, in Los Angeles. He was a working class guy, with a Naval background, and he used his personal life, particularly his time spent in the service for great comic inspiration. Don Rickles is not only one of the greatest Jewish comedians, he is one of the most gifted spokespersons for the Jewish angst movement. Rickles was able to take his personal frustrations, his views (which were incredibly controversial and politically incorrect, even back then) and make them palatable. Don Rickles did material on TV that no one else could get away with, then or now. "You hockey puck!!" was Rickles trademark phrase, which he used with aplomb when skewering anyone from the little guy to the Hollywood's elite. Rickles played no favorites. He appeared to have open-mouthed and sweat on the brow contempt for just about everyone, including his wife Barbara, a constant foil in his act. On Don's first album for his pal Frank Sinatra's Reprise label, "Hello, Dummy!" Don's trademark nightclub act was captured for posterity. I saw Don perform last year at the Stardust Hotel in Las Vegas and the man simply rocked the house. As hilarious as ever. Even doing bits and schtick from the '60s 'heyday,' it still works brilliantly. You see Rickles going up against the everyday schlemiel, but still has no mercy for the big shots, either. Rickles is a man who could lacerate Johnny Carson for his marriage go-round, Frank Sinatra for his carousing and later his hairpiece, ("All that's missing from that thing is the word Welcome!") Ed McMahon always looked like he was about to lose his Maalox when Don would go on a tear. I think the most interesting thing about "Don Rickles Speaks!" aside ...
