This unique compilation presents twenty-nine different versions of 'Unchained Melody', across a wide range of musical styles. It includes the four biggest 'original' 1954 American hits, by Les Baxter, Al Hibbler, Roy Hamilton and June Valli, as well as Jimmy Young and Liberace's successful UK cover versions, while the 'original' movie soundtrack clip features Todd Duncan.
