An old woman I used to know would play these songs every time I was over, and I finally found the exact album she would play on cd (this one), and it’s crazy listening to them again and realizing that I know half the words. This might be a biased opinion, but I love these.

prefect, easy moving at a pace that keeps with the music. not too much but enough to keep me listening even in the distance. Hear manilow young and vibrant. buy it...play it...you'll come off like that sensitive brute who is listening and loving. candles anyone? a little bubblie...a cherry... romance doesn't get any better.

This cd was released only nine months after "The Greatest Songs Of The Fifties." Again steering clear of rock Barry records the finest pop standards the sixties had to offer. The sixties was the decade of love and "Cherish" by the "Association" can't become more breezy. The original is so sing-along and carefree, they back Barry up on his cover complete with free love breeze. The pre-rock standard "When I Fall In Love" is indeed one of the greatest standards ever written and it was a hit for the Lettermen in the 60's, that's why it's here along with the cover of Dean Martin's "Everybody Loves Somebody." Overall this cd offers the best of the 60's covered by Barry, he sticks close to the original arrangements, a standout track is "This Guy's In Love With You." Barry, with his easy going style should consider a songbook of Bacharach.
