5 out of 5 stars Splendid.......2007-02-25

One of the best love songs ever. I'm a 79-year-old music lover who's heard 'em all and this one is a heart-breaker.

4 out of 5 stars At Any Moment...enjoyable.......2006-02-11

Most people know 'At This Moment' from 'Family Ties'. Fortunately for me, that is how I first heard it and I am so grateful. I might never have sought out more Billy Vera music and I would have missed out on some great stuff.
My favorites on this CD are 'At This Moment' (of course) and 'Hopeless Romantic', but the other songs are solid pieces performed well.
Billy Vera and the Beaters might not be classic rock or even classic music, but they are a tight band who perform well. Their work is totally enjoyable.

4 out of 5 stars Good stuff.......2004-05-20

I sought out this album after hearing "At this moment" on the radio many years ago (I'm a sucker for a good heartbreak song) and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the music throughout. The great thing is that the horns play as an ensemble, not just good soloists. Yes, "Here comes the dawn" gets a little old after a while but it's effective. Just a darn good band overall. Great tunes, great spirit and enthusiasm and obviously a good time was had by all in attendance. A classic set.

5 out of 5 stars No one does it better than BV and the boys.......2003-03-30

If you want a taste of true non-commercial California sound, pick this one up. It is full of live tracks and very few studio tracks. The band was a well kept secret for years until 1986 when 'At This Momment' was played on Family Ties. Radio stations wanted a copy of the song to play for their listeners. The rest, as they say, is music history. Billy Vera and The Beaters live and breathe music. They are constantly playing dates to the fans that appriciate them, and they will appear in the places you least expect them to be. You might hear them do a TV theme song, or appear in a movie, or talk show. For a time, I also had their little known, out-of-print, Retro Nuevo. Still, this one is always the best for rainy days. And there are plenty to like, such as 'At This Momment', 'Hopeless Romantic', and 'Here Comes The Dawn Again' (I like Billy's opening words on that one). When it comes to California, no one does it better than Billy Vera and the Beaters.

5 out of 5 stars A must have.......2003-01-21

Lots of good tunes like inthe corner of the night, at this moment.
The song "here comes the dawn again" is definitely the best peace of music ever written and performed.
Stunning performance. Brilliant musicians. Hear it once and you will hear it over and over again.
