When Willie Nelson's "Crazy" has been done with aching perfection by such an all-time great as Patsy Cline, it takes cajones not only to do it again, but to make it the title track to an album. Even if--perhaps especially if--you are Julio Iglesias. But it was in fact with Willie that Iglesias truly crossed over to mainstream audiences with the microwave rotation and top-10 status of "To All the Girls I've Loved Before." And as over the top as he can be, Iglesias keeps good company: Willie and Dolly Parton (who also duets with him on Crazy's "When You Tell Me That You Love Me"), as well as Sting and Art Garfunkel, who also step in for guest vocals. And while "Mammy Blue" strays far from Iglesias's best material, he is at the top of his game dueting with Lucia Calla on "Caruso," and, vocally, he surprisingly rises above a questionable arrangement of "Song of Joy" with the London Symphony Orchestra and the Ambrosian Singers. --Paige La Grone
