From the back cover: It's nice to dream – good dreams at night and oh those wonderful daydreams – sometimes they even come true. Many of mine have. Some even better than I dared to hope. But all dreaming is important, for out of it can come an idea for the future or wonderful memories of the past... and while some may say – what about broken dreams – I say with new ones you can mend the old, and they're available to everyone. And for the late hours, what is more wonderful to a dream than dreamy music than Tony Martin. If I sound like a proud wife – I am.

The songs in this album are some of my favorites. Now I Lay Me Down To Dream, Learn To Croon, Can This Be Love? – just to mention a few – are seldom heard and I urged Tony to include them in this album. When we've put our two careers and two children to bed and we settle down for a quiet evening a home, we dream a little too and in such instances, Tony has hummed or sung many of these selections. Maybe that's why they are may favorites. But also, there is warmth and gentleness and great strength which reaches out from each song – and that is Tony.

While you are listening to this album I hope that these same feelings are imparted to you and that, like us, you can Dream A Little Dream. – Cyd Charisse
