As compilations go, Universal's two-CD Greatest Hits and More might be the best sampling of Engelbert Humperdinck's work that has yet appeared. All of his best-loved hits are here (including "Release Me," "Les Bicyclettes de Belsize," "Quando Quando Quando," and "There Goes My Everything"), but there are also a few extra tidbits that should keep even longtime fans happy with the program -- most notably, four brand new songs. "Can't You See," a Humperdinck original, appears here for the first time, as well as "Totally Amazing," which he co-wrote with the help of his daughter and son-in-law. Also appearing for the first time on record is the touching ballad "Columns of Grey" (which features New Zealand's Christchurch Choir) and another new song, "Jerusalem," making this collection a little more desirable to fans who, no doubt, already have much of Engelbert's "hits" material. ~ J.
