One of the all time greatest and most under rated vocalists

"The quality of this cd is perfect. I get sick of people with these cheap cd players complaining about cd quality. Tommy had one of the most romantic voices in pop music history- he was truly a magnificent singer. I rate him high in the ranks with Nat Cole, Mathis,Sinatra, and Dino. Personally, I love discovering songs by artists that the radio never played due to payola and back room poltics. Just because a song wasn't a hit doesnt mean it wasn't a great song. This cd is for the pure romanticist. So snuggle up,dim the lights,light a candle,chill a bottle of wine and prepare to meet the dawn.How about all of us writing and starting a campaign to get the state of Virgina to change the state song to "It's all in the game". Tommy was from Richmond."
This type of album makes me sad.

"Why? Because this was the golden age of music and hearing the stuff that is put out today (I listen to Bay Area Rap), it makes me long for the times when I would have heard this on the radio, or danced to it with a lovely lady. Many times when people ask me what CDs I like, and I reply, 'It's All In the Game' by Tommy Edwards, they believe Tommy Edwards to be another rap artist. I'm 18 and guess I was born about 40 years too late. This album is grea to relax to, romance the fly hunnies or use the lyrics to sings to the ladies at thier doorsteps."
It's All in the Game

"Tommy Edwards is one of my all-time favorite singers of love songs. I have his records - yes, records - and they are all scratched from use. I tried to buy them in 2nd hand stores and they cost between $35-50 dollars each - AND are still scratched. I checked for cassettes years ago and was told they never made any of his albums on cassette. How excited I was to find I can now buy them on CDs. He is a legend to me."
Wonderful, wonderful

"A very sweet guy with a beautiful voice and relaxed style, Tommy Edwards never had the ambition to really get to the top in show business. Nevertheless, he made a lot of hit records for M-G-M and scored one of the most unusual comebacks in record history by rerecording his earlier hits with a gentle rock beat a decade after his original success. Tommy's records were just beautiful and beautifully produced. This album is simply wonderful."
Outstanding Album. Very high quality recording.

"Perhaps the "SLEEPER ALBUM" of all times. Tommy Edwards has one of the greatest voices in Pop Music history - rivaled only by the likes of Nat King Cole. Every song is wonderfully romantic. Will literally send shivers down your spine. Highly recommended."
