Hello! It's Mark here. Recently I received my copy of Kelly's album, released in 1982. It was so hard for me to find the correct date of release (some places say 1983...), and how it was on the charts and stuff. But, anyway, I'm happy with the disc, it was at a very good price! More if I consider that it's a "hard to find" one... About the album, I couldn't say it's a 10, but it's nice to hear. It has cute and intense moments, and other moments without so much emotions.
Am I A Dreaming and Oh Little Darling (my favourite) are probably the best, but I'm trying to give some more credit to other songs included here. Black Hearted Woman, Midnight Train, Can't Stand The Morning, are other interesting titles! I heard the album before, but I really needed to have it on another format.
Do you have a more complete review of the album?? Will be interesting to read them on its 40 birthday!

Am I A Dreamer , and Dear Mama are the highlights for me. But I still wonder who made the decision to release the album with such horrific sound quality. It sounds like it was recorded and mixed inside a soda can.

I think that the cover of his album is terrible,THAT pose and the 'Kelly' font isn't a good look...

Thanks for reminding me of this album, had pretty much forgotten of its existence. I managed to pick it up at a car boot sale on vinyl for peanuts about 30 years ago, different cover to the cd thank goodness (though still not great).
Now going to give it a spin!

He was a small man. That teeny waist! I just don't understand how he died of heart attack. It is usually the people who are overweight that die of heart attacks. Kelly was slim & trim.

I remember going to a record fair about 25 years ago and there was a stall that had 4 or 5 copies of this vinyl album going for about £1.50...
