I have just begun listening to Anne Murray again after a long absence, and I would have to agree with the previous reviewer by saying that this is a very good album. The album was produced by Jerry Crutchfield, who was Tanya Tucker's long-time producer, and the production values are tight, solid and top-notch. There really isn't a bad song on the whole album. "I Can See Arkansas," which was the album's primary single, is quickly becoming a favorite, and is reported to be a personal favorite of Anne's. "You Sure Know How To Make A Memory" is a lovely song about enduring matrimonial love, and I've long been a fan of "Some Days It Rains All Night Long," previously recorded by Terri Gibbs. A very good album; buy it if you have even a remote interest in Anne's music.
By the time this album was released, it seems that the public enthusiasm for new releases from Anne had diminished somewhat. Loyal fans bought the album anyway and were treated to one of the best albums that Anne has ever recorded. For proof, just listen to her covers of Some days it rains all night long (previously recorded by country singer Terri Gibbs, best remembered for Somebody's knocking), Overboard (T Graham Brown) and Even the nights are better (Air Supply).
The other songs, mainly ballads, are somewhat obscure but all of a high quality including the title track (co-written by Beth Nielsen Chapman), If I ever see you again (for which Anne also recorded a French version, also included here), Wrong end of the rainbow, I can see Arkansas, You sure know how to make a memory, Roots and wings and Everyday (not a cover of the Buddy Holly classic, this appears to be an original)
If you enjoy Anne's music and are interested in more than just the hits, this is well worth tracking down.
