THE GOLDEN AGE OF SONG
 |
|
Jools Holland's first major collaborations album for five
years, The Golden Age Of Song was released
by Rhino UK in December 2012.
The album contains twelve newly recorded studio
songs featuring Jessie J,
Tom Jones, Rumer, James Morrison,
Paloma Faith, Paul Weller, Joss
Stone, Mick Hucknall, Gregory Porter,
and Ruby Turner. |
There are also five unforgettable live performances –
by Amy Winehouse and Paul Weller, Lily Rose
Cooper (née Allen), Paolo Nutini, Florence
Welch, and Cee Lo Green – from the popular
BBC2 Hootenanny New Year's Eve show.
The Golden Age Of Song combines an array of wonderful
performers with Jools' incomparable musicianship, and
the instrumental support of his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra.
"My orchestra and I have been very fortunate in working
with an array of artists of different ages," says Jools.
"We've worked with people who are in their 90s, sometimes
people who were born in the 19th century, but also very
young talents who were born in the late part of the 20th
century.
"The great thing about music is that it doesn't
matter if it's five minutes old or 500 years old. If you
can breathe life into it, you can make it brand new every
time you do it. That's what we've hopefully done with
some of these songs, and we've accomplished it by both
with inviting some old friends and welcoming some very
young ones."
