The others have production that hurts the ears, especially in the drumming. Seems it hasn't mattered who's been on drums, they all sound as though they have bricklayer's hands. While the production on this CD isn't terrific, it's one vast improvement. One thing I really want to know, however: even Clay has often described himself as 'a crooner'. I agree 100%, so why does he seldom choose songs just made for crooners? Heck, his own 'Lover All Alone' and Sedaka's 'Solitaire' are two I cherish because they so perfectly fit his lush, powerful and sensitive voice. Clay, why not croon an entire CD? The RCA folk so blatantly steered you away from them. Now that you're free, how about beauties like 'If..', 'Cara Mia' (if you don't know it, it's a 60s hit by Jay and the Americans, and oh, the glory notes!), 'Love is a Many Splendored Thing'. 'Time in a Bottle'. and 'You Belong to Me' - just for starters? It’s my favorite of all his albums. The others have production that hurts the ears, especially in the drumming.

I received it yesterday from amazon. It is great. I will order from amazon from now on. Loved Clay on ANTM and would love to hear him sing again.

What is that? It's never been used along with Clay's name so why would it be now? ;) The cd was sent to stores in very limited quantities, so if it weren't ordered online, the chances were slim to none that it would be found in a store. Considering there was absolutely nothing announcing this cd was out, Clay sold very well - and for a Playlist cd, it had great numbers. I love the cd and thrilled I have it as part of my music collection. Promotion? What is that? It’s never been used along with Clay’s name so why would it be now? ;)

It a shame. The sound on this CD is astounding! Put a set of headphones on me and I can totally immerse myself in the sound of it!
