This Is Pat DiNizio

The album features DiNizio accompanied by jazz pianist Jay Rowe interpreting songs from mainly the 1960s.

[4] The album was recorded at Hollingsworth House, DiNizio's home in Scotch Plains, New Jersey, and all vocal and piano tracks are one-take, unedited performances with no overdubs.

[4] AllMusic's Mark Deming rated the album 3½ stars out of 5, saying that pianist Jay Rowe handles the melodies in a tasteful and elegant manner, and that DiNizio's phrasing is intelligent and well-considered.

He concluded that "DiNizio has both the pipes and the musical sense to make this sort of project work", and that the album was "a very pleasant surprise".

[1] The album was originally available through Pat DiNizio's website in a limited edition of 500 copies as a 3-disc set in 2005,[5] but was quickly snapped up by Fuel 2000 for a single CD release in May 2006.
