The album's original liner notes include some fun descriptions of the "entrancing setting" for Jackie Gleason's music: "A wisp of cigarette smoke in the soft lamplight, the tinkle of a glass, a hushed whisper." Fans of Gleason's orchestral mood music will want to track down the expanded 16-track LP. Casual fans may not need much more than Collectors Choice's Music for Lovers Only/Music to Make You Misty.
