A superb collection,Christopher Cross music transcend race,culture and ethnic background.Track# 7 Think of Laura will blow your mind,it gives me emotional goose bumps.And that's only the tip of the iceberg,the whole collection is outstanding.

TRULY DEFINITIVE!

This superb digitally remastered CD contains nineteen songs, at least seven of which were top hits. Ride Like The Wind, All Right, Say You'll Be Mine, Sailing, Never Be The Same, Arthur's Theme, and Think of Laura are all included. The other tracks are great also, reminding us of Cross' unique gifts as song-writer and stylist in today's crowded field of manufactured, mediocre talent. Cross alone penned most of his hits, but he sometimes collaborated with song-writing legends like Burt Bacharach, Carol Bayer Sager, and John Bettis. Such associations serve as testimony to the respect Cross commanded in the industry.

The liner notes are poignant in detailing his rise to fame: 'Four years... eight hit singles, several world tours, five Grammys, and one Oscar later, Christopher rested...only to be usurped by that music merchandiser's dream, that music purist's nightmare...the music video, self-invented media darlings..no amount of quick cuts, exotic locations...could disguise the fact that on the outside Christopher Cross was just a regular guy...' Regular? Perhaps. But his music is still extraordinary, powerful and soaring.
