Those of you who delight in magnificent musical sounds will be pleased with our releases of today:
21 of his finest works, collected in one package covering his recordings up to and including material from last years Award winning Best Album Trespasser and Cold Haily Rainy Night (with Imagined Village) and previous folk award winner One In A Million (written with Hugh Lupton) plus performance in collaboration with Karine Polwart, Martin Carthy, Eliza Carthy, Andy Cutting, Ian Carr and more.
Aiming to stay true to his roots as a live musician Kyle set out with this record to capture the sound which his band has toured all over the world. Along with producer and long time collaborator Michael Stevens (with whom he has written film scores for block busters such as Changeling and Gran Tarino), Kyle was eager to make a record which had an energy and spirit all of its own. To achieve this Kyle and Michael sought the help of Erin Davis (son of the legendary Miles) who came on board to co-produce the album.
This 16 track career-spanning collection from the multi-talented, grammy-nominated New York soul singer/songwriter includes Brenda’s original recordings of her compositions Get Here (Oleta Adams) and If Only For One Night (Luther Vandross) and “the stories behind the songs” liner notes by Brenda.
Plus plenty o’ others:
