"Nice to have the album finally released on CD. Great album and movie from the '70's. Hearing the songs again brings back a lot of memories."
Sooner or Later

"This album came out when mu husband had died. I do so wish he had lived to hear some of this music he would have loved it too.
The feelings and emotions in this album truely spoke to my experience as a young widow.
I was in Yonkers when this was being filmed. I had the chance to be at the shopping mall when that scene was filmed. To this day I still can feel all the emotion and thrill in the air that was there that day when Rex was perfoming Better than It's ever been before live.
If you have the opportunity to see him perform live-- take it!!! It is the chance of a lifetime to see a performer of Rex's calibur. He treats his audiance like they truly matter. Not many modern performers take the time to get to know their fan base like he does. Take the chance to meet and greet Rex you will not be disappointed!!!"
Trip down memory lane

"WOW does this take me back. Loved the movie back more years ago than I care to remember. The songs were upbeat and fun for the time but what really blows me away is his cover of If You Think You Know To Love Me. His phrasing is, bar none, perfect. There's something about the way he sings this that I like even more than Smokie's. Great collection of songs that take you back to a simpler time when life was not so harried."
Rex is Best

"Rex Smith is the best singer of any teen idol. His voice is pitch perfect, his range stratospheric, and his energy boundless. He deserved to become a much bigger star than he did. This album is very well produced and well orchestrated. The title theme is luscious, the additional tunes are fun, sweet, upbeat and passionate, but the real surprise is the outstanding remake of the Marvin Gaye classic Ain't That Peculiar."
