This is such a great album, probably one of the finest career capping, legacy building recordings any artist has been fortunate enough to create.  I think it is high time some creative jazz singer recorded a Charlie Rich Songbook album.  The man was a masterful songwriter and if you think of him as "just" a country singer, take a listen to this track and think again.

Some nice piano work there by Mr. Rich.  The bari sax was played by Fred Ford.  Calvin Newborn and Johnny Vidacovich were also in that group along with James Singleton on bass and Dour Garrison on shaker.  

The final track on this album is a reworking of another of his compositions, the classic "Feel Like Going Home".  This is powerful music.  Eerie that it would turn out to be the final track on his final album.

Definitely worth checking out if you're a Charlie Rich fan: Peter Guralnick's book that takes its title from that Rich song.
