Ndeed!! That's my favorite Michael Franks album ( It just missed my 80's top 20 list!!) Sunday Morning Here With You, Rainy Night In Tokyo, and Tell Me All About It are my favorite tracks!! Great musicians on there, too: Toots Thielmans Kenny Rankin Randy Brecker Astrud Gilberto Steve Gadd Anthony Jackson Rob Mounsey Hamish Stuart Hiram Bullock John Tropea Eddie Daniels Nana Vasconcelos Jon Faddis Will Lee David Nadien Neil Jason Jeff Mironov Sue Evans Hugh McCraken Casey Cisk, etc.... ...

I actually first saw this album on "Natalie Cole`s list of music you should hear"
I listened to a few samples on amazon, and the album sounded good. | |

Actually, that's the album that made me a Franks fan...before that...I dunno, he's got one of those odd whispery voices, and people either like it, or it makes 'em wanna grab an AK47, ... But when I heard this album, I was like, "Ok,, ya got me...gotta start checkin' Mike out, "..... ...

I remember this album from back in the day when it first came out. I worked in a record store and used to play this entire album from start to finish at least 3 or 4 times a day. Needless to say, I loved it, but I can't say I've heard it in over 20 years. But just seeing it here in this post reminded me that I used to love this album. Now I have to go out and find the CD! Thanks for the memory. | |

"Never Satisfied" was my song. When Sly Calls was and still is my favorite. [Edited 9/25/07 10:30am] | |
