Popis:
Jamaican-born Jimmy James & The Vagabonds’ albums plus all single and EP tracks recorded for Pye and Piccadilly Records, dating from 1966 to 1970. ‘Red Red Wine’ and ‘This Heart Of Mine’ were both Top 50 hits whilst other singles were turntable hits, selling large quantities over a period of time. Live, Jimmy James & The Vagabonds were a hardworking, dynamic and extremely popular act. The Vagabonds disbanded in 1970, but James reformed them in 1973 and had two big disco hits in 1975. Digitally remastered, slipcased and with extensive new notes
Released via her new home at Bella Union, Choosing is a strikingly personal document of a journey from a painful rock bottom of self-destruction, to a safer place imbued with the faint light of hope. Focusing on the bare bones of each song, and taking inspiration from the direct and melodic work of songwriters such as Elena Tonra, Sharon Van Etten, and Scott Hutchison, it’s an album that sings openly of longing and searching, of trying, failing, and trying again – and always and throughout, the strength of love in so many varying forms. Following on from the pair of EPs she released in 2020, Choosing finds its own shape by a subtle reforming of Jamieson’s sound. Where those EPs flirted with playful experimentation, here the overriding sound is both organic and simpler – live drums, bass, cello, and piano are used across the album – allowing space for Sophie’s mesmerising voice to take the spotlight, the songs delivered with the most direct and intimate impact.
