What About Me?

Hello, Amazon.com.As my subject title implies above, I once owned a CD copy of the original release of this fine album, from the fall of 1991 thru the summer of 2004. A former female friend of mine borrowed it from me and I never got it back, unfortunately. Immediately afterward, I went out to see if I could pick up a fresh copy of this CD--to absolutely no avail. I was told at that time, by two CD dealers, that it was already discontinued for good. Up until October 18, 2006, I had no clue that this album had been resurrected--and I must say that I am more than pleased with this!! I once again look forward to hearing this CD, on both my PC's media player and when I play it on my DJ music system.Although the album as a whole is absolutely fantastic, I must say that my top favorites on the "What About Me?" release are the title track, as well as "The Night Goes On", "Two Hearts, One Love", "Somebody Took My Love", "Crazy", and "Heart to Heart". For any of you who enjoy the mid-1980s era of the light AC genre, this is one album that you cannot pass up! To me, Kenny Rogers is very much like many other crossover artists: he can perform light AC and pop just as well as he can perform his primary country genre. The same goes for both Glen Campbell and Ronnie Milsap, as well as for Steve Wariner and the late Marty Robbins.And as for Kenny Rogers himself, I hope, sir, you will get a chance to read this review. Ever since I got my first copy of your "What About Me?" release on cassette from my late grandmother, back in 1984, I have been totally hooked on your style of pop/AC/country music. Please keep up the good work, Mr. Rogers!Best Regards,Russell

I bought this Album/ CD for the song "The Stranger" Track #9 Because Dolly Parton wrote it. It's such a beautiful song & a very sad song. I also like "Crazy" Track #8 The Stranger was over looked at the time of this Albums release. Which was a shame. It should of been a #1 hit. Check this song out for yourself. It's a good song.

When this Rogers album was initially released, I bought it the first day out. A fan of Kenny's music, I quickly realized this was a future classic. I loved the collection, but it didn't fare as well on the charts as I would have expected. Nevertheless, I played the vinyl record until it was scratched and worn. Hard to find on CD, I bought a copy on Amazon and enjoyed the memories from 30 years ago. The production is meticulous and the quality sounds like it's a 2013 release. There's a track or two that aren't great, but still good. Overall, I recommend this one above most others of the era. It's Kenny at his finest.

This has long been one of my favorite songs and I am surprised that it does not get more play. The combination of Rogers, Kim Cairnes(sp) and James Ingraham must be sounding dated since I first heard this in the 80's ( I think ) but the interaction between the three of them is great and the electronic keyboard ( another sound that must be out of favor) is entrancing to me. Three great talents make a great recording in my eyes.

replaced my old 33LP..no complaints.

Had this album years ago in a tape and lost it was nice to be able to find it on Amazon music just as I remembered all the songs great purchase

Have been looking for this album. Glad I finally have it. Love the music.

I love this album. I had the record and now have gotten a CD. I don't want to take this out of my car because I enjoy the songs so much. Vintage Kenny.
