 Deanna Martin - memories are made of this October 17, 2007
I bought this as a gift for my husband. He loves the CD. I have yet to be able to hear it as he won't give it up for a day.
 Memories are Made of This - Deana Martin August 14, 2007
Excellent CD. Deana has a great voice and this CD is first class. Does a fantastic job performing her Dad's song.

Deana Martin brings us back to the days when music was at its best. If you love Dean Martin, you will also love his daughter.
Nice sound -- give it a listen! March 3, 2007

Not all children of celebrities have the talent of their famous parents. But Deana Martin sounds as good -- in her own way, of course -- as her father. This album is a collection of songs from the 40s and 50s (at least mostly -- I don't recognize a few of them), the era when her father was making a name for himself as a singer, and includes many songs that were Dean Martin's hits, as well as some songs that are better known by other artists (like Judy Garland's "Trolley Song" and Rosemary Clooney's "Mambo Italiano"). And she does a good job on most of them. (There are a couple of false notes in some places, but not enough to hurt the overall rating.)
In general, she does not imitate her father's style, a good thing because the female voice sounds so different from the male. (An exception is "That's Amore," where it does sound as though she made a conscious attempt to sound like Dean Martin.) She comes closer to the originals on the Garland and Clooney covers mentioned earlier in this review. In the main, when she does a Dean Martin hit, she sounds less laid-back and more jazzy, and it works for her.
I think she's about as good a singer as her father was. Neither is one of my very top favorites, but both have (had) decent voices and are certainly worth listening to.
Memories Are Made Of This, like the aroma of grandma's homemade pasta on a Sunday afternoon February 9, 2007

I'm in the business and very rarely actually listen to the CDs I receive. This one has been in my car cd player since I received it! It's a great new perspective on timeless music and a legendary voice. You can feel the pride of a daughter with every note she sings. Its like the kindergartener proudly pointing out "her daddy," Deana sings her father's songs with love, honor and respect. You're a Dean fan before you play her CD, but by the third song, you've unwittingly become a Deana fan. Do your cd player a favor, let the smoothness of Deana's voice set the tone for all the other music you may play on it. Memories are truly made of Deana Martin's new cd.
