AM/FM
AM/FM is an intimate, elegant and beautifully sung collection of classics from the ’60s and ’70s that together, make up the soundtrack to her life. “The song sequence on the album tells a story of a very innocent, idealized version of love in the `AM’ section, before it shifts to the `FM’ section and becomes more about the disillusionment that happens after you’ve had some heartbreaks,” Rita says. The album contains 14 tracks, carefully curated by Wilson along with her producer Fred Mollin. The album is essentially divided into two sections.

love her but….,
I have to say that as an actress and a woman I really like Rita Wilson. But I honestly think if she wasn’t Rita Wilson, actress and wife of Tom Hanks – we would not know about this CD! It’s not terrible but not worthy of all the hoopla – there are so many amazing talents out there that don’t get this kind of opportunity but when you are in the position she is in – you get to make all your dreams come true including producing your own music and getting it publicized

Too soft,
Good collection of tunes but the sound lacks energy with a strong rhythm beat. Too mellow for elevator music. Would be good music for baby’s nap time, seeping the best songs of the ’60s and ’70s in the baby’s brain.
