I enjoy this recording very much and I like the songs. But production could be better, you can hear that the bass player was very much involved in the recording process and the overall recording is a bit rough (but still nice). I do not like the choice of bass and drum solo's when things start to get swinging, it stops the train. A independent producer could prevent this kind of accidents.

Not only is the original(artist composed) title tune a heart wrenching ballad - but I was also impressed by a couple of other tunes: What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life - the "love song" from the movie Happy Ending, which has a dynamic lyric, as well as melodic excellence - and done so well by Ms. Holeman. I also enjoyed, I Don't Wanna Set the World On Fire - for it's classy tongue-in-cheek rendition. And the upbeat arrangement of That's All, which had historically been regarded as a "down" ballad, was a real treat. Kathleen also seems to have been able to evoke the best of spirits from her "sidemen." I only wish I coud've been in the studio to share the warmth of such a "one for all" effort! And if you're a sports fan, don't miss the Baseball song.

Aside from the obvious - this lady has lotsa class!!!
