Released at the apex of his popularity, this was
Feliciano's most successful album. It reached number two, largely on the strength of his only big hit single, "Light My Fire" (which is featured here). Soulful easy listening is an oxymoron, but this is about as close as that fusion gets to reality, with passionate vocals and virtuosic flamenco guitar. Besides "Light My Fire," it's dominated by interpretations of '60s hits like "Sunny" and "California Dreamin'," as well as three
Lennon-
McCartney tunes. Noted jazz bassist
Ray Brown is one of the supporting musicians. ~ Richie Unterberger
