Overview
Hello Like Before is a stunning celebration of a legendary career, marking Dame Shirley Bassey’s 60th year in show business. Recorded at the iconic Abbey Road Studios, this album sees the "Tiger Bay" diva return to her roots with a collection of songs she had always longed to record. Backed by the lush arrangements of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Bassey delivers powerhouse performances of classics like "MacArthur Park" and "Wild is the Wind." The album also features a magnificent 50th-anniversary re-recording of her signature James Bond theme, "Goldfinger," proving that her voice remains as formidable and emotive as ever. It is an essential masterpiece for lovers of grand, sophisticated vocal pop.
Összefoglaló A Hello Like Before egy legendás karrier lenyűgöző ünneplése, amellyel Dame Shirley Bassey a show-bizniszben töltött 60. évét koronázza meg. Az ikonikus Abbey Road Studios-ban rögzített albumon a díva olyan dalokat válogatott össze, amelyeket egész pályafutása alatt el szeretett volna énekelni. A Royal Philharmonic Orchestra dús hangszerelésével kísérve Bassey olyan klasszikusokat kelt életre, mint a "MacArthur Park" vagy a "Wild is the Wind". A lemezen helyet kapott a "Goldfinger" című James Bond-főcímdal 50. évfordulós újrafelvétele is, amely bizonyítja, hogy hangja még mindig ugyanolyan átütő és érzelemdús, mint régen.
