All New Paul Jones CD (with Eric Clapton)!!!

[collectorschoice]

Hi,
Collectors’ Choice is very excited to bring you it’s first “true” new release: a new recording by former Manfred Mann frontman Paul Jones with many special guests, including Eric Clapton! The release date for this special recording is March 10th, 2009. Here’s more information about the release:

Artist: PAUL JONES
Title: Starting All Over Again
We’ve released just about every kind of recording under the sun during the
15 years our Collectors’ Choice Music label has been doing business. But the one
thing we haven’t done is release a new recording made especially for our label...
’til now. What did it take to get us to venture into the treacherous world of
contemporary recording? Well, how about the first solo record in many years
from ex-Manfred Mann and Blues Band vocalist Paul Jones, made with a glittering
cast including Austin guitar stalwart Jake Andrews, legendary saxman Ernie Watts,
Hollies vocalist Mikael Rickfors, Neil Young bassist Tony Marsico, Stevie Wonder
(among others) drummer Alvino Bennett, Eagles keyboardist Mike Thompson and
two guys you may have heard of, soul legend Percy Sledge and guitarist uber-legend
ERIC CLAPTON (Paul and Eric actually teamed back in the ‘60s in the shortlived
group Powerhouse on our What’s Shakin’ reissue)! EC actually appears on
two cuts here, Choose or Cop Out and the title track, while Paul duets with Percy
on the bonus track, Big Blue Diamonds. The other tracks, which range from
swingin’ to smoldering, bluesy to boppin’, include Lover to Cry; If You Love Me
(Like You Say); Sundown; I’m Gone; Philosopher’s Stone; Still True; Need to Know;
Gratefully Blue; When He Comes, and Alvino’s Entourage. All produced under the
watchful eyes (and ears) of CCM label artist Carla Olson. Hey man...we got
legends recording for our little ol’ Collectors’ Choice Music label!

Cool, Dave! Thanks for the information. Manfred Mann takes me way back in the best way.

Good luck with your projects, and keep us posted.
