Customer Reviews What's up with the packaging? However, the packaging was a great disappointment not only for this CD, but all the Olivia Remastered CDs. First, I loved this album growing up, and I am glad to finally have the remastered import CD version. Sure it comes with a booklet of lyrics and pictures from the original albums, but EVERY photo is so grainy that it looks absolutely amatueristic. This includes the front and back covers and the photos inside the booklet. I would have sworn they were booklet copies if I hadn't purchased them from Amazon directly. . Lots of Great original tracks by Olivia My favorite song is A Thousand Conversations. This was the first Olivia Remaster I got, as I suffered for years of only having this album on Cassette (went through two of them actually) Not only was I completely grateful I had this on cd, I was BLOWN AWAY by the sound quality of this particular release in comparison to my MCA Cds. The Kangaroo song is Corny, but makes me smile. I also love Every Face Tells A Story, an underrated single. And of course, Sam and the title track are just wonderful. A Really really great record. You also get the priviledge of hearing her sing accapella on the intro to Last Time You loved. Great Idea for Olivia. . Olivia's Best Ever Album By Far The title cut is breathtaking and is oh, so very true. ONJ went to Hollywood from London, but stopped on her way in Nashville to record the best album she's ever made. I love A Thousand Conversations, Compassionate Man, and Hey Mr Dreammaker. As a 2 sided album, the weakest song on side one was New Born Babe, but it's still a beautiful song. Side 2 brought probably her last country hit, Every Face Tells a Story, and, of course, Sam. The two songs after that are the weakest points, if I had to choose one. But she makes up for it with The Last Time You Loved. It is simply one of the most beautiful songs she's ever done, and with a minimum of vocal overdubbing. John Farrar didn't let many songs go without 2 or 3 Olivia's singing together. On this one, he did. The lack of overdubs shows that she was/is a really good singer and not just a beauty, which many thought that's all she was. Sometimes, Mr. Farrar forgot that. This album should have been her comeback, before Grease. Her sales were beginning to slack, and continued to do so until Grease, but this one should have put Livvy back on top. .
