Atkins serves up a mixture of late 1960s pop and world music. Harihar Rao adds sitar to "January in Bombay" and "Ranjana" with some interesting and also somewhat mystifying results. Recent hits by The Tijuana Brass - "A Taste of Honey" and "What Now My Love" also get covered here. It reached #19 on the Billboard Country Albums chart and No. 148 on the Pop Albums chart.
Writing for Allmusic, critic Richard S. Ginell wrote of the reissue "This attractive LP from Chester Burton Atkins purports to leap international boundaries, but for the most part, he stays right home in Nashville."[1]
