    I saw him perform this role at the Birmingham Hippodrome about 30+ years ago, he was fantastic.

    Takes me right back to my father's two scrap books on Al Jolson and the films The Jolson Story and Jolson sings again starring Larry Parkes ❤

    He is very good , the voice is excellent. I absolutely love the Jolson films which I have seen umpteen times. Larry Parks as Jolson was brilliant.

    Jolson never had the lyrics to Let me Sing in the order you did. Your impression is not bad for people not truly familiar with Jolson. About 85 to 90% accurate. Jolson had a thoroughbred voice.

    Certainly does not sound like Al Jolson, but great show just the same!

      Brian was using his own rendition , which he got awards for may I add so he did something right! It was the winner of Best Musical in 1995!

    Brian Conley isn't any Al Jolson, stick with comedy routines.

      Nobody but Jolson IS Jolson but all the same he is a very good actor🙂

      Brian Conley is a gifted comical and straight actor and he can sing quite good, his Jolson act is very good as he emulates our hero Jolly and it pretty good, but he sounds like Brian Conerly which in itself is very entertaining, he got a great natural singing voice, Brian Conerly is a great entertainer and a credit to show business. @@mica412
