"King of Cool" Dean Martin's music career spanned an incredible five decades. He sang with a multitude of peers including Nat 'King' Cole, Line Renaud, Bing Crosby, Sammy Davis Jr and, of course, Frank Sinatra. He recorded songs written by such talent as Peggy Lee, Rodgers & Hart, Kris Kristofferson, Johnny Cash, Burt Bacharach, Barry & Maurice Gibb and Lee Hazlewood, and worked with the best arrangers, producers and orchestrators in the business, including Nelson Riddle, Dick Stabile and Jimmy Bowen. With innumerable hit singles, Gold Albums and hundreds of hours film and TV footage to his name, Dean Martin's unprecedented legacy still resounds today and his music can still be heard on radio, streaming and in the background to countless modern movies. DEAN MARTIN - A DISCOGRAPHY includes full listings of his singles, studio albums, EPs, compilations and soundtracks, interspersed with contemporary press announcements, sleeve notes and historical marketing & advertising material, most of which have not been seen for many years. There is also a rare interview with Dino himself. So sit back, pour yourself an apple juice, and let your memories be made of this...
