Musical maestro Jools Holland has teamed up with Soft Cell frontman Marc Almond to release a joint album this autumn. ‘A Lovely Life To Live’ will be released on 23rd November CD, digital download and to stream.
This album has been more than ten years in the making, with Jools and Marc having toured together periodically since 2006. ‘A Lovely Live To Live’ showcases the brilliant live sound and musicianship between Jools, Marc and the well-renowned Rhythm & Blues Orchestra when they perform together on stage as one ensemble.
The 14-track album is a fantastic collection of both brand new, original tracks written by Jools and Marc as well as their big band interpretations of a wide range of songs. Highlights include Marc and Soft Cell’s iconic Tainted Love, Edith Piaf’s Hymne À L’amour, Irving Berlin’s How Deep Is The Ocean as well as two Bobby “Blue” Bland songs – It’s My Life Baby and I’ll Take Care Of You.
