Just Out Of Reach by Perry Como is an album that showcases the timeless talent of the legendary crooner. The album, released in 1975, features 10 tracks that are a mix of classic pop standards and contemporary hits of the time.
The album opens with the title track "Just Out Of Reach", a ballad that showcases Como's smooth vocals and his ability to convey emotion in his singing. The album also features covers of popular songs of the time such as "Feelings" and "The Way We Were".
One of the standout tracks on the album is "For The Good Times", a song that was originally recorded by Ray Price. Como's rendition of the song is a beautiful and emotional performance that highlights his ability to interpret a song and make it his own.
The album also features a few upbeat tracks such as "I Believe In Music" and "Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round The Ole Oak Tree". These tracks provide a nice contrast to the more somber ballads on the album, showing off Como's versatility as a performer.

Just Out Of Reach is a solid album that showcases Perry Como's talent and his ability to deliver a memorable performance. The album is a must-listen for fans of classic pop and for anyone who appreciates great vocal performances.
Perry Como has the most pure, soothing golden voice. All the other crooners don't come anywhere near him. Singing as it should be done and at it's best.
Love it a friend has these 45 records Imma only 49 yrs old will be 50 this June awesome well written smooth n real on Set written words this generation. Couldn't ever know how the ADAPTATION -ones of music is today!!
NO ONE sings this song better than Perry. For a total change of pace, Look for Virgil Stewart, who wrote it and listen to one of his tracks. 180 degrees difference and proof that the person who wrote it is not necessarily the best version.
