Peter Cetera's greatest, January 15, 2001
I just love this CD,from the fantastic hit,"One Good Women," with the trading of backup vocals from Siedah Garrett, Niki Haris, Kenny Cetera and Peter,then the wonderfull Piano break,I still can't get enough of this record."Scheherazade," is another great number,with Madonna on backup vocals.Every number is filled with excitment,except for the last cut,"One More Story," all you hear is Guitar,and Peter's beutifull song about his small child,praying the kid stays young forever.I swear there's not one number that doesn't grab you some way.I've always loved Peter's voice and style,if he was singing with Chicago,Cher,Amy Grant,or the late Karen Carpenter,you always had a great time listening to his records,like your going to when you play "One More Story."

One Of His Two Best, August 5, 2001
By A Customer
This is the first CD I ever purchased, but I had not listened to it in it's entirety for several years. Recently, there was an unmarked cassette tape in my car, and out of curiousity I popped it in the player. I'm glad I did. On one side was 'World Falling Down' and on the other 'One More Story.' I could make a case that either one is his best work, and an even stronger case that taken together they represent the best work of Peter Cetera. 'One More Story' is one of those albums where, even if you did not like the songs, you would find yourself listening in wonder to the voice that is Peter Cetera. I never liked the production of his first solo effort, 'Solitude/Solitaire' and by 1995's 'One Clear Voice' CD, he had fully gone adult contemporary. 'One More Story' and 'World Falling Down', and especially the former, find him in great voice and rocking. Of the 10 songs on 'OMS,' only four are ballads (and they are pretty darn good ones). When you think of Peter Cetera, you don't think of turning it up to 11, but put on 'Save Me' or 'You Never Listen To Me' and turn it up. You'll know what I mean.

Amazing! His best material!, May 28, 2000
I didn't listen to this CD but once within a year of buying it, mainly because I didn't know any of the songs on it and I was just collecting Peter Cetera CDs. I halfheartedly listened to it the first time and thus no songs stuck in my head. However, I happened to pop it in to hear Scheherazade (the only one I remember from my previous listen due to the name ^_^) and somehow listened to the whole CD...and now it's the primary Cetera album I listen to. Every song is carried out with strength and emotion, and the listener feels it every second. "One Good Woman" is a particularly strong rock piece, and "You Never Listen To Me", with a wonderful guitar performance by Pink Floyd's David Gilmour (who also plays a bit in the song "There In The Dark"), is especially dreary yet captivating. Scheherazade is an amazing Arabian ballad about a sultan and his new love...the use of Sitar and other middle-eastern instruments and styles make this one of the most memorable tunes on the CD. The album closes perfectly with the somber "One More Story", a song which he probably dedicated to his daughter (which he usually does on all his albums except for World Falling Down). If you're looking for the perfect blend of ballad and classic rock, than this is the album you want. I cannot say enough good things about this album. Get it if you want the perfect Cetera album!
