Atlantic All the Lost Souls

Product Description James Blunt - one of the most successful British artists this decade - is back with his first album in 3 years. Armed with an arsenal of impressive new songs, he returns on September 17th with the eagerly anticipated `All The Lost Souls'. A dynamic, immaculate, back-to-basics LP of addictive melodies and distinctive vocals, it features 10 brand new tracks, including the rousing lead single `1973'. The new album follows the multi-platinum, international Number 1 debut `Back To Bedlam' - the best-selling LP of the millennium - and is once again produced by Tom Rothrock. Instantaneous and hook-laden, it boasts several road-tested favorites, including `1973', `Same Mistake' (which was performed before an audience of billions at Live Earth) and the dazzling `I Really Want You'. Other highlights include the deftly captivating `Annie' & the blazing `One of the Brightest Stars'. Recorded and mixed in L.A with his acclaimed live band - keyboardist Paul Beard, guitarist Ben Castle, bassist Malcolm Moore, and drummer Karl Brazil - `All The Lost Souls' is inspired by the iconic sounds of the `70s. Review "All The Lost Souls is dominated by deft songs, clever arrangements and a fragile yet forceful voice" -- Adrian Thrills (Daily Mail) "All the Lost Souls is a collection of seventies-inspired classic pop songs with emotional heart-rending lyrics and melodies that you simply can¹t get out of your head once you¹ve heard them" "He is a very ordinary bloke with an extra ordinary talent" -- Vicky Newton (The Sun) "All the Lost Souls is vastly superior to his debut. 10 perfectly crafted sings overflowing with melody, crammed with hook lines and rick with intense emotion." -- Neil McCormick (Telegraph) From the Artist "For me, there was absolutely no pressure whatsoever," says James. "Having sold over 11 million albums, I know the likelihood of doing that again is really minimal. Instead of setting that as a target, I just recorded something that I'm happy with. It was a release, in a way. It's something that shows my growth and development as a songwriter and musician, shows development in my own life, and documents it in that way."
