This is it. This is the album with the smash hits "Behind
Closed Doors" and "The Most Beautiful Girl" that garnered every
imaginable award on the planet. Few albums approach the surprise
commercial success Charlie received with this one upon its release in
1973. If you think this is a CD you can pass on simply because youve
heard the hits, oh, about a billion times, you probably ought to
reconsider. Several of Charlies most touching songs are couched among
the countrypolitan sensibilities: "A Sunday Kind of Woman" is a
soft-spoken homage to Charlies woman, written by Charlies woman
(Margaret Ann), while "You Never Really Wanted Me" is, quite simply,
a precious testimony to heartbreak.
