KenB, you have described "Mirage" in such an ELOQUENT manner. I have been engaged "in a timeless search" to find a way to describe "Mirage" and I think your words "MUSIC BOX" are the PERFECT label. The record is just that, a "music box" and "pure prettiness". It's held up so well and stood the test of time. I can play "That's Alright", "Book of Love" and "Only Over You" on surround sound and it's PURE MAGIC 32 years later. For the life of me, I don't understand WHY this album is not listed as one of the greats.
