Reflections of Rosemary is a 2005 album by Debby Boone. It is Boone's first full-length disc recorded for Concord Records. It was released sixteen years after her previous studio album, Home for Christmas (1989).
The album's name, Reflections of Rosemary, refers to American singer and actress Rosemary Clooney, who was Boone's mother-in-law. It is a tribute album for Clooney who died in 2002, intended to be a musical portrait of her, or as Debby Boone put it: "I wanted to select songs that would give an insight into Rosemary from a family perspective".[1]
The album was produced by Allen Sviridoff, who had been Clooney's producer and manager for many years.[1]
Boone said she had chosen songs for the album that Clooney performed or "songs that maybe she recorded that people would never really associate with her".[2]
Boone toured extensively for the album including several nights at New York's famed cabaret, Feinstein's, where Clooney often performed.[3]
