Stop in, look around, have a drink and crank some tunes. I'll be posting some songs ripped from records, some out of print and hard to find stuff, some songs by artists you should be listening to, and a few mixes here and there.

Volume 3 Is Ready

























Here we go. Volume 3 of Check The Cool Wax. Pardners :: The Best of Dean & Jerry At The Movies. Because the record labels or movie studios would never put this CD out, I had to take it upon myself. These guys are my favorite movie/comic buddies of all time. In my opinion at least, nobody comes close. Here are my favorite songs performed in their movies. Most are duets but a few are solos. Does anyone know if we are going to get a Volume 2 of their DVD sets?


THIS MIX HAS BEEN RETIRED. CAPITOL ACTUALLY PUT OUT A MARTIN AND LEWIS MOVIE ALBUM...

Paramount is releasing a volume 2-it has the rest of their movies except for "Money From Home" and "Three Ring Circus"--I don't know if movies like "Artists and Models" and "Hollywood or Bust" are in the VistaVision aspect ratio but I would hope so...
Thanks a lot for this set!!!!!

WOW! That'a a labor of love indeed
to put vol. 1,2,and 3 together.
You should be working for Rhino
records! Funny, I didn't realize how great the songs as a whole
were. I would say they blow away
all the crosby road picture songs,
and many are a hoot! Or RIOTOUS,
as the naughty outtakes of THE CADDY say. Yeah, Jerry could be a bit obnoxious with the whole "Hey Lady" thing, but Martin brought a
mellow edge(and humour as well!)
that made it palatable. Most of these songs are lost treasures, except for just a handful. Again, you should be working for an archival record label, or starting your own label/company!
Thanks a MILLION for posting. You can't imagine how much I enjoyed this!

WOW! Thanks sooooo much for putting this together! Back when I used to watch TV, I loved these movies. Martin & Lewis were a great combo and made some of the best 'make ya feel good' movies!

Thanks again I will treasure this CD!!!

I purchased the DVD sets and have started watch them. Your compilation really was GENIUS. Thanks so much for this.

You are seriously a genius -- compiling this stuff was incredible enough, but designing the professional-quality artwork took this effort over the top. I agree that a professionally remastered collection should be released, but what you have done here is really remarkable. My compliments!

Thanks for the great complements!

Per chance do you have the Jerry Lewis song "Never Smile At A Crocodile"? I'd like to play it for a youngster that's never heard it.

Thanks.

Glad I downloaded this when I did! Tried to find that official Capitol Records release of Dean & Jerry material, but aside from some EMI Legends of Comedy CDs (that just appeared to be stuff from their radio shows), I couldn't find anything that matched what you created with this wonderful collection. Is there a title that would lead me in the right direction?
