The dramatic photo of Ray conducting was taken as he was working with the Singers at the recording sessions of this album.
"The interprestations and performances of these contemporary songs by the Singers are certainly some of the very finest we have ever recorded," were Ray's own words at the close of the sessions.
As you listen we're sure you will agree that the fresh new sounds on this album rank well up there with, if not above, some of their more recent releases such as "Somewhere My Love," "This Is My Song" and "It Must Be Him."
