He&#8217;s not Dean Martin but I&#8217;d say he&#8217;s probably one of my favorites in his particular category. \u00a0Let&#8217;s listen to a few Andy Williams songs and then you can use the comments section and tell me what you think about Andy.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nHere&#8217;s <em>Can&#8217;t Get Used To Losing You.<\/em><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Q1p_H704lQY?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>&nbsp;<br \/>\n<em>The Theme From Love Story<\/em><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Gr5zpyhDwvI?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nHere is <em>Can&#8217;t Take My Eyes Off You<\/em><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GkRakKjrP6U?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nSee, he has a pretty good voice and that 1960&#8217;s performance style.

A quick scan of Amazon shows a plethora of double albums on CD. \u00a0Yes, the <em>Eclectic Collection<\/em>\u00a0has plenty of lounge style singers like Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett and Tom Jones. The strangest part is that although Andy Williams was the first of them that I knew of and liked, I don&#8217;t have any of his numerous CDs. I&#8217;ll have to look into that. \u00a0Really, putting this post together was the first time I&#8217;ve listened to Andy Williams in decades, \u00a0apart from some Christmas Songs. I&#8217;ve really enjoyed it.<\/p>\n<p>Creating <em>My Musical Evolution<\/em>\u00a0has been a lot of fun. To stop and look back and to listen to some of these old tunes on YouTube. I know life is busy and it is hard to slow down but I highly recommend trying to recall the earliest musical memories you have and try to find those songs and listen to them again.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Andy Williams used to be one of mom&#8217;s favorites so there were a few Andy Williams albums as well as singles. \u00a0I remember the album The Impossible Dream.
