#328 in BEA 1977!! - criminally underrated here. I love this album. It brings many memories from the halcyon days of the late 70s when I played this before my DJ evening session. Lovable and professional.

A definite MT album, with great classics, turned into a festival of some great voca work. Definitely fun!

A really good album of different styles and great harmonies, the French language song is brilliant as is Walk In Love & Pieces Of Dreams. A mixture of the past & the present.
