The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: “PLEASING YOU” is the name of this album. It’s also Mike Williams’ musical destiny. He sings, plays and entertains from his heart.

The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None.

The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: I think I got this one for the van on the cover, and the fact it says ‘Gospel’ – but it really isn’t gospel.

The Sleeve: The Liner/Sleeve Notes: None. Personal Review: So, I don’t know, I really liked the sailor hats. So, the album opens with the song “Stand By” and there has never been a record that has sounded more 80’s than this album, the instrumentals, the vocals, the lyrics, it’s all way too 80’s. It’s different,... Read More »
