Tina Arena - Aimer Jusqu'a L'impossible

The first single from Tina's forthcoming album "Un Autra Univers". After a break from releasing her last studio album, Tina's vocals have never been better and the track is a cool blend of acoustic guitars, eastern strings, and Latin rhythms. This mix was by upcoming UK producers Paul G. and Duck Blackwell (aka Sharks).
Although typical of the direction of the album "Aimer Jusqu'a L'impossible" is only an indication of the other 12 tracks still to come.

Release Date: November 14th, 2005 http://www.tinaarena.com

The New Erasure Album: 'Union Street' 

Written by Pmachine November 30, 2005, 03:52:11 PM 620 Views Rating: 0 (0 Rates)
Erasure's eagerly anticipated acoustic album "Union Street" is to be released in the UK on the 3rd April 2006.

Named after the recording studio in Brooklyn where it was recorded, the album features a collection of the bands previously released songs, reinterpreted in an acoustic / country & western style.

Andy Bell revealed his thoughts about the album in an interview last year:

"I said a few years back (that) I would love to do a Country & Western album and this is kind of a half-half. It's done in the country style on some tracks and we got violins, cellos, all different kinds of instruments and it was really a pleasure to do it and rediscover some of the old songs that we thought could have been singles that never were.
It's just really different singing with acoustic instruments than singing with synthesisers. I think it's some of the best singing that I've ever done..." (http://www.erasureinfo.com)

The band are also planning a tour after the release of this album.
??
The track listing of Union Street is as follows:

1 Boy
2 Piano Song
3 Stay With Me
4 Spiralling
5 Home
6 Tenderest Moments
7 Alien
8 Blues Away
9 How Many Times
10 Love Affair
11 Rock Me Gently

International release dates of the album are tbc.

Morrissey - Ringleader Of The Tormentors 

Written by Pmachine November 25, 2005, 08:22:24 PM 691 Views Rating: 0 (0 Rates)

Morrissey has announced the tracklisting for his forthcoming album 'Ringleader Of The Tormentors'.

The singer, has been mixing the follow up to 'You Are The Quarry' in Rome with producer Tony Visconti and has set a release date of March 20, 2006 for the LP.

As previously reported, a single will precede the LP in early February.

 ??

Speaking about the sessions on his own website, Visconti wrote: "I am two thirds of the way through one of the best albums I've ever worked on, with not only Morrissey at his best, but the plot has twists and turns which somehow involve film composer Ennio Morricone and an Italian children's choir.

"Not only is this a departure in his writing (my opinion) but he has extended his vocal range and has written extended melodies."

??

The tracklisting for 'Ringleader Of The Tormentors':

'I Will See You In Far-off Places'
'Dear God Please Help Me'
'You Have Killed Me'
'The Youngest Was The Most Loved'
'In The Future When All's Well'
'The Father Who Must Be Killed'
'Life Is A Pigsty'
'I'll Never Be Anybody's Hero Now'
'On The Streets I Ran'
'To Me You Are A Work Of Art'
'I Just Want To See The Boy Happy'
'At Last I Am Born'
