Introducing the new compilation album which takes some of the best singer/songwriter tracks ever produced and brings decades of music together on one complete album.
‘Singer’ is the latest compilation from Sony BMG and features a fresh and eclectic mix of acoustic, soul, jazz, blues and pop singer/songwriter classics to our ears. ‘Singer’ is set for UK release September 1st, 2008.
Whatever the decade, the British public has always had a constant love affair for classic singer/songwriter hits. This compilation now celebrates that with a great mix of old and new.
From classics including Annie Lennox’s smash hit “Why”, “Wild is in the Wind” by David Bowie, Bob Dylan’s “Baby, Stop Crying” and Simon & Garfunkel’s “Bridge Over Troubled Water”, to more recent modern day hits including Amy Winehouse’s “Love is a Losing Game”, Newton Faulkner’s haunting version of “Teardrop”, and the soulful melody of Jeff Buckley’s “Hallelujah”, the album is two CDs of pure music heaven. There really is something to suit every musical taste.
The best singer/songwriter album to hit the shelves for a long time, this carefully selected compilation will take you on a musical journey through the years.
