Album Notes

Recorded At Mediasound, New York, New York.
One of the cornerstones upon which Manilow's career was built, THIS ONE'S FOR YOU shows off both Manilow's compositional acumen and his casual, guy-next-door way with a song. He was always the master of Big Arrangements, especially in his '70s heyday, and the title track bears this out, starting with simple piano-based accompaniment to a solitary-sounding, contemplative vocal and gradually building to the kind of pop crescendo that is Manilow's stock in trade. The same device is employed, though to a more celebratory effect, on "Looks Like We Made It."
The uptempo "Riders To The Stars" gives us a glimpse of showbiz Barry, who sounds here like he'd be equally at home in a recording studio or on a Vegas stage surrounded by dancing girls and colored lights. In contrast, "Weekend in New England" is a poignant ballad full of longing. THIS ONE'S FOR YOU is an essential item in the Manilow canon, representing several sides of the singer's talent.
