It was described by ''The Times'' as "the standard against which all others must be judged".

Rest On Me
''Rest on Me'' is the first studio album by Kim Carnes. It was released in 1971 (see 1971 in music) on Amos Records and reissued on A&M Records in the late 1970s. The album (minus the opening song) was also released on CD on many European budget labels in the early 1990s - but with all tracks remixed and, rather curiously, running at a markedly low speed. Most tracks were also lengthened, simply by repeating parts of the tracks. In 2012, the original album was re-mastered and made available, complete and at the correct speed, as an internet download in 2012 and on CD on the Essential Media Group label the following year. Background Carnes began her recording career with The New Christy Minstrels. After meeting producer Jimmy Bowen in 1971, she signed a recording contract with Amos Records. Following the album's release, Carnes and her husband David Ellingson issued a standalone single titled "It's Love That Keeps It All Together", also produced by Bowen. Critical reception ''Ca ...
