Even though this album was originally released way, way back in the mid/late seventies, it still holds a warm place in my heart for 'romantic ballads'. The huge hit single, "Sometimes When We Touch" is one of the most heart wrenching, romantic songs of that era. The way that Mr. Hill sings it with such passion and raw emotion still brings goose-bumps to me every time I hear it. His simple, yet meaningful lyrics tell of the pain and anguish that he tries to convey so well that you cannot help but be touched by the tune. The rest of this album also marks well with regards to his songwriting ability. Simple, yet meaningful songs, each telling their own special story. I would recomend this LP to anyone who is, or ever has been, in love. You cannot go wrong here.
