 (5 Customer Reviews)
It is said that a truly great comedian can draw not only laughter, but also tears from their audience. This is certainly true of Charlie Chaplin, and is no less true of Jimmy Durante, a man whose face, voice, and demeanor were at once comic and tragic. AS TIME GOES BY: THE BEST OF JIMMY DURANTE bears witness to the magical combination of these qualities in the man they called the Schnozz.
Collected here are 12 recordings mostly from the 1950s, all classic renditions of the standards that made Durante famous. "September Song" and Chaplin's "Smile" are superb vehicles for Durante's heart-rending yet simple intonations. Also present are the sad sack love songs "Hello, Young Lovers" and "If I Had You," each as perfect for Durante as if they had been written specifically for him. "I'll See You in My Dreams" rounds out the collection, ending, naturally, with a sweet goodnight to Mrs. Callabash.

As Clive Richardson admits in his liner notes, this British compilation is similar to the 1998 American MCA CD collection Oh What a Night! The Great Ballads, which was out of print by the time this 2007 anthology appeared. All 15 of the songs from Oh What a Night! The Great Ballads also appear on Always Together: Great Chess Ballads. The difference between the two discs, however, is a substantial one. Always Together: Great Chess Ballads adds six more tracks, including a previously issued one (the 1972 outtake "You Changed My Life Around") and a cut ("Since I Found You") that had not been issued until the 1992 comp On Their Corner: The Best of the Dells. This isn't the best place to start for those who want an overview of the Dells' Chess period (which many soul fans regard as both their artistic and commercial peak), by simple virtue of the absence of up-tempo numbers that were also a major part of their appeal, such as the 1968 smash "There Is." If you do favor their ballads, however, it's certainly a solid assortment of Chess material in that vein, including its share of hits ("O-O ...
