In the liner notes for the album, executive producer Jay Landers writes that "Johnny combed through his personal album collection and chose 12 songs sure to evoke faces and places from those golden days when 45s were stacked on the record player and local deejays played songs you could actually hum the melody to."[2]

Reception
In rating the album at four stars on
AllMusic, John Bush praises producer
Walter Afanasieff, who "has helmed most of the best records by many artists who have come later and courted the same audience as Mathis... He definitely saved his best for this date, a landmark in his career."[3] The reviewer also gives high marks to the singer: "Mathis sounds fantastic for a septuagenarian... The material he chooses is excellent as well."[3]
