Singer Al Basile presents his last recording, which appears to be quite different from what he has done so far The twelve songs included in the album chronologically describe the story of a romance that took place between the months of May and December of a non-specified year Each song is a step that follows the story line of the romance To do so Basile has chosen a simple instrumentation with Bruce Bears on keyboards, Brad Hallen on bass, Mark Teixeira on drums plus his voice in all songs and a cornet he plays on a couple of tracks Due to the pandemic Basile decided to turn the recording release party into a virtual showcase, including some actors who represented the characters of that intense and romantic love story Now Al Basile is considering to recording the scenes on a musical show that will be distributed with the album That said, you can easily imagine that the most important thing this time has been to emphasize the lyrics than the music, although the music becomes the most suitable framework for Basile’s tasteful narrative he brings us with an amazing credibility As it could not be otherwise, the cd includes a booklet with all song lyrics
