    All Music Guide Review

    Holmes' debut betrayed the heavy influence of Brian Wilson and (to a lesser degree) Nilsson, but his self-professed cinematic brand of songwriting was far closer to adult contemporary and MOR Tin Pan Alley than either of those greats dared to tread. Barbra Streisand helped launch Holmes' career by covering two of the songs, "Widescreen" and "Letters in the Mail." [The 2001 reissue adds 11 bonus tracks: "Studio Musician" and "Brass Knuckles," from his eponymous album; three versions of "No Small Affair"; the TV theme songs "Remember WENN" and "Hi Honey, I'm Home"; a demo of "There You Are"; "By Myself" from +Solitary Confinement; "Theme From Accomplice"; and "The Bitter End."] ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi
