This landmark album from 1959 represents the most finely finished work of Pat Boone's career. When examined as a composite whole in which song selection, vocal performance, arrangements and orchestration, and choral accompaniment are all carefully considered, it may be fairly stated that no other
Pat Boone album realizes the accomplished perfection of
Tenderly. There is an ethereal quality which permeates each selection and the album may have just as aptly been titled "Heavenly." Its rich yet delicate orchestration, accented with lush strings and a chorus so gracefully and subtley effectual it seems to emanate from a celestial choir, meld with Boone's virtuoso vocals and create an album of exquisite refinement and warmth. Everything connected with this project speaks of scrupulous attention to detail. It is apparent that each song was carefully selected, painstakingly tended to and lovingly nurtured in order for it to achieve consummate fruition. Each and every track is among the finest
Pat Boone has ever recorded. "More Than You Know" may possibly be the singularly superb ballad track
Boone has ever put to record. And, after listening to this wonderful album you will, more than you know, come to appreciate Pat Boone's unique artistry.
