5 out of 5 stars An inspired album from the master of romance.......2006-02-06

Right from his early days Paul Williams has known how to touch the hearts of romantics everywhere. This album was Paul's 3rd for A & M and as well as a Japanese Import, which is hard to get hold of, will be released on CD on the East Central One record label in the UK on 20th February 2006. It will be available on Amazon.co.uk

This album was the start of a fruitful collaboration between Paul Williams and Kenny Ascher, which included writing songs for 'A Star Is Born' and 'The Muppet Movie'.

Many of the songs are recognisable as they have been recorded by others. (You & Me Against The World by Helen Reddy, Rainy Days & Mondays by The Carpenters and What Would They Say, recorded by a young John Travolta for the film 'Boy In The Plastic Bubble')

What makes this album stand out however is Paul's interpretation of his own songs. He sings from the heart off love and friendship, and finishes of with the classic 'Dream Away' which will take you away from the trials and tribulations of every day life.

A great album and a timely release, as Paul continues to write for projects such as the stage mucial of Happy Days, which previews in February 2006 in the USA

5 out of 5 stars The Search is Over!.......2000-03-19

Been searching record bins for a decade for any sign of Paul Williams and now my prayers have been anwered. Ever since I heard the song "What would they say" in the film "Boy in the Plastic Bubble" I've been hooked. Paul Williams is a master song writer and the words and music will catapult you back to the '70s. "You and me against the world" and "If we could still be friends" are worth the price for this gem. If you like the Carpenters or Nilsson you'll love this disc. Enjoy!

5 out of 5 stars Williams is one of the priemer song writers of our time........1999-02-12

Paul Williams has won an Oscar for his songs. This comes to no surprise to anyone who listens to his music. Compared to the bad poetry found in today's rap sound (I don't dare call that music), Williams is the Mozart of the 20th century. From the words of "That's What Friends Are For" to "Dream Away", Williams conveys what it is to be a friend in today's world to encouraging children to realize their dreams and goals. In the lyrical "Driftwood", Williams makes you feel what it is like to be floating in the uncharted waters of lonliness and despair. While William's voice is not on the same level as Johnny Mathis or Andrea Bocelli, compared to Bob Dylan he sounds like mythical sirens luring sailors. If you are looking for some moments of genuine reflection on what life should be like, then put on this mystical music, prop up your feet, and just listen to the words. Let them transport you for a few moments to a world that could have been. Let them make you feel what it means to be a true friend. But, most of all, let the words give you the feeling of a warm blanket on a cold winter's night in front of the fireplace. Williams is only the masterful guide on this journey of self enjoyment.
