Free Music Notes for Close Encounters with Great Singers: Jon Vickers

Free Music Review: Great, but...
Hit: 4 Stars

This is a very important documentary of arguably the greatest singer of the twentieth century. The interviewer and Mr. Vickers touch on fabulous anecdotes and background information, which is a priceless treasure. The collection of recording excerpts is a tantalyzing overview of Mr. Vickers' amazing repetoire, but couldn't they be just a little less "clipped"? In other words, the only drawback to this cd is that a little more balance in favour of the music would have made it perfect. As it is, this is a welcome addition to my music library.
