There's nothing unusual or out-of-the-ordinary about this latest release, it's Michael Buble doing what he does, and what he's always been doing. If you haven't heard this new album, but you've heard all of his previous albums, then you'll know what to expect from this new album. I'm not going to go into too much detail about it. Like all the earlier Buble albums before this one, Call Me Irresponsible comprises the usual variety of Big-Band/Jazz-Dance style tracks, several of the more mellow, slow, ballad style tracks, as well as those tracks that are sort-of half jazz half-pop style stuff. If you're romantic and/or you like to dance to Big-Band Jazz type stuff, then this album is perfect for you. As usual, for the real Jazzy tracks, Buble's vocals are accompanied by the Buble Orchestra / Big-Band, which gives that vital environmental element in a good Buble recording. The vibrant sound of the accompanying Orchestra and Big-Band is one of the elements that I like about an album/recording like this one.; Once again, the quality of audio reproduction of this album is top-notch, especially for a Jazz-style Recording. If you have a really good audio sound system with full surround sound that can digitally re-produce/simulate the acoustics and dynamics of a Jazz-Hall, insert this CD into your Hi-Fi's CD player, set your music style to 'Jazz', and select 'Jazz-Hall' ( or equivalent ) setting on your Environmental Selector, turn up the volume, Press Play, and listen as this album's ability to sound like a real Jazz-Hall environment comes to life and transforms your very own living room into a virtually-live Jazz-Hall.; On the album, Buble sings a duet with 'Boyz II Men' titled ' Comin' Home Baby ', apparently slated as a sequel track to Buble's earlier song ' Home ', and he also does a slower rendition of ' Always On My Mind ' ( previously covered by UB40 ).; The Special Edition contains a bonus track titled ' LOVE ' and comes bundled with a bonus 24-page booklet.; Although all the Michael Buble albums style-wise are very similar in comparison, personally, I thought the previous album ' It's Time ' is slightly better than Call Me Irresponsible.

Call Me Irresponsible would be a great addition to your Buble or Jazz collection if you're a Buble fan, or if you're just an all-rounder-Jazz fan. Great if you call yourself a romantic person.; Alternatively, it serves as a really good audio-testing and/or exhibition piece for any Hi-Fi/Audio/Sound-System nerds, or if you just want to show-off the greatness of your really cool sound system.

My Score : 7 out of 10.
