The Best of the Mercury Years contains 25 tracks from
Vic Damone's tenure at Mercury Records. Over the course of the compilation, the majority of the vocalist's hits for the label -- including the number one "Breaking My Heart," "Por Favor," "Ebb Tide," and "My Heart Cries For You" -- are included, as well as terrific lesser-known numbers which help make this album the definitive retrospective of
Damone's stint with Mercury. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
