A sophisticated sound produced entirely by David Foster.
A fusion of sophisticated pop sensibility and the ability of a melody maker, the album features a lineup of highly polished songs, ranging from energetic dance tunes to sentimental ballads. As the title suggests, the album's appeal lies in its balanced blend of eastern and western American sensibilities.
