"It was a real pleasure to find this album had been released on CD. I have just listened to it and it is just as good as I remember my LP copy being. All the songs on this cd are fantastic and I highly recommend it.

I remember seeing George on television singing the title song and how amused he was that after all those years of people not wanting to here him sing that now they were applauding and asking for more. Of course it helped that the songs he was singing were great. When you here him sing 18 Again it will bring tears to your eyes."

"If all you knew was that George Burns TALKED about his singing, would often sing a line or two and then go right back into telling a joke, BUY THIS CD. I owned it a long time ago as a vinyl record and then, with the demise of record players, I did not hear it for years. Now it is back and it is so IN ALL OF ITS GLORY. It is not a long CD but what there is here is simply vintage. Some of the songs can only be sung by, and about, George Burns. I guarantee you that if you are a fan, you will buy this CD and then come back for a few more as gifts. One of the songs has this line in it: "if I gotta run, I simply don't go!" Do yourself a favor: turn that sentence around and: "go...you just gotta run" to pick up I Wish I Was Eighteen Again.""
