This album is a compilation of Ray's greatest hits and contains a new stereo recording of "'S Wonderful." This album was reissued on CD in Europe and Brazil with bonus tracks.
Original LP liner notes:
Eventually, every great artist releases a Greatest Hits album. With Ray Conniff, however, that's not easy. The question is: Which Greatest Hits? Ray's list of Greatest Hits is nearly as long as the list of songs he has recorded.
Since it is not possible to include several hundred songs in one album, the task of repertory selection for "Ray Conniff's Greatest Hits" was nearly insurmountable. Starting with Ray's first solid Gold Records, " 'S Wonderful," right down the list to his last release, "I Love How You Love Me"... even a cursory examination will reveal that every record deserves to be called a hit. The reason is as simple as the Conniff mystique; when Ray works his magic on a song, it's his; it's unique; it's a hit.
The songs in this album are the greatest of Ray's Greatest Hits. Some of them, like 'S Wonderful, go back fourteen years. But, as always, they are as uniquely new, uniquely Conniff, as the day they were recorded; they sparkle with a freshness that only Ray Conniff can create. Like every Conniff album, this is a new listening experience. The Conniff magic has worked its charm again.
The result? Well... 's wonderful. — Tom Riley

В 1970 на лэйбле Harmony вышел замечательный сборник Рэя Конниффа The Impossible Dream. Несколько лет назад мы выкладывали его в группе. Этот сборник примечателен ещё и тем, что на задней странице обложки была представлена самая полная, на тот момент, биография Рэя, написанная музыкальным обозревателем Томом Райли в 1967 году. Сегодня мы представляем её вам в русском переводе. Приятного чтения! Большинство из тех, кто читает данную статью, уже знакомы с тем характерным музыкальным звучанием, с которым идентифицируется имя Рэй Коннифф.

Но вся эта великолепность Рэя Конниффа не пришла к нему вдруг сразу. Пластинка – этот виниловый лист, заключенный между двумя слоями картона, как и другие пластинки Рэя Конниффа, являются продуктом многолетней уп
