This article contains a listing of Dean Martin's original singles, LPs, and compilations from his career.
Overview
[edit]Martin recorded his first single, "Which Way Did My Heart Go" / "All of Me", for the small record company Diamond Records in July 1946.[1] The majority of the singer's recordings were released by Capitol Records (1948–1961) and later on by Frank Sinatra's Reprise Records (1962–1974). Martin had many hit singles during his lifetime, two of which went to No. 1 on the pop charts—"Memories Are Made of This" in 1956 and "Everybody Loves Somebody" nearly a decade later. A close runner-up was "That's Amore", which stayed at No. 2. His other Top 10’s included "Powder Your Face with Sunshine" (No. 10), "Return to Me" (No. 4), "The Door Is Still Open to My Heart" (No. 6), and "I Will" (No. 10).
After "Volare" reached No. 12 in August 1958, Martin experienced a six-year period in his recording career without any significant activity. Instead, he focused on film acting. A song strongly associated with Martin, "Ain't That a Kick in the Head?," never charted when released as a single. His highest-charting single during that span was "On an Evening in Roma" which peaked at No. 59. It would take "Everybody Loves Somebody" to turn his chart decline around.
"Everybody Loves Somebody" also introduced Martin to the Easy Listening charts. From 1964 to 1969, he had great success there, as 20 of his singles reached the Top 10. The final year that the singer had any significant chart success was 1969, with "Gentle on My Mind", "I Take a Lot of Pride in What I Am", and "One Cup of Happiness" doing moderately well. In the United Kingdom "Gentle on My Mind" reached No. 2.
The crooner had two singles chart on Billboard's Country chart—"My First Country Song" (No. 35), featuring Conway Twitty, was the first in 1983. As early as 1959, Martin had expressed his love of country music ("My Rifle, My Pony, and Me"). Within a year of signing with Reprise, Martin had recorded his first country album, Country Style, released in January 1963. He continued to record country music prolifically until he retired, but country radio did not play his singles.[2]
Martin released a total of 32 original studio albums throughout his career. His most critically acclaimed projects were released by Capitol Records in the late 1950s e.g., Sleep Warm (1959) and This Time I'm Swingin'! (1960). Nevertheless, the singer had no significant album chart success until he signed with Reprise Records in the early 1960s.
The Everybody Loves Somebody 1964 compilation album was Martin's best-selling album. It sat at No. 2, narrowly missing the top spot. The Dean Martin Christmas Album, released in 1966, became a permanent best-seller throughout the late 1960s and early 1970s, hitting No. 1 on Billboard's Christmas chart.
Other albums that made the Top 20 Pop Albums chart include Dream with Dean (No. 15), The Door Is Still Open to My Heart (No. 9), Dean Martin Hits Again (No. 13), (Remember Me) I'm the One Who Loves You (No. 12), Houston (No. 11), Welcome to My World (No. 20), and Gentle on My Mind (No. 14).
Martin virtually retired from the studio after November 1974, exacerbated by Reprise's decision to withhold the Once in a While project. The label believed Martin paying tribute to his influences would not sell well at the height of disco. The label finally reversed its decision four years later after embellishing the backing tracks with a more modern, disco-flavored rhythm section. Once in a While concluded the artist's association with Reprise.
His longtime producer, Jimmy Bowen, persuaded Martin to record one more album.The Nashville Sessions, released by Warner Brothers, became a moderate success in 1983. The crooner's recording career ended in July 1985, when he recorded the non-charting single, "L.A. Is My Home". Despite the singer's renown for his ease in front of audiences, no live albums were made available until after his passing in 1995.
Demand for Martin's recordings continues to be significantly high in the new millennium.[3] Capitol and Collectors' Choice Music re-released Martin's original studio albums. Bear Family Records, one of the world's leading reissue labels based in Germany, chronicled the singer's complete recording sessions in four lavish box sets. Capitol's 2004 compilation, Dino: The Essential Dean Martin, was certified platinum by the RIAA.[4]
Two years later, Country singer Martina McBride overdubbed her vocals onto Martin's original version of "Baby It's Cold Outside" for Capitol's Forever Cool duets project. This resulted in a Top 40 Country/Top 10 Adult Contemporary hit which was Martin's first single activity since "My First Country Song" 23 years earlier. The album featured overdubbed duets with McBride, Kevin Spacey, Dave Koz, Chris Botti, Shelby Lynne, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy and more. A duet of "I'll Be Home for Christmas" with Scarlett Johansson was added to Martin's My Kind of Christmas CD.
Cool Then, Cool Now, a two-CD/book released on Hip-O Records in 2011, examined the artist's signature hits along with a significant dose of lesser-known recordings.

Holiday 100 chart entries
[edit]Since many radio stations in the US adopt a format change to Christmas music each December, many holiday hits have an annual spike in popularity during the last few weeks of the year and are retired once the season is over.[18] In December 2011, Billboard began a Holiday Songs chart with 50 positions that monitors the last five weeks of each year to "rank the top holiday hits of all eras using the same methodology as the Hot 100, blending streaming, airplay, and sales data".[19] In 2013, the number of positions on the chart was doubled resulting in the Holiday 100.[20] A half-dozen Martin recordings have made appearances on the Holiday 100 and are noted below according to the holiday season in which they charted there.
