Eva Cassidy – Songbird (Remastered)

80-gram 45 RPM 2LP audiophile reissue
A platinum-selling album in the U.S. and quadruple platinum album in the U.K.!

"Eva Cassidy moves me in every way — emotionally, intellectually, as a singer, and spiritually. Her version of Sting's 'Fields of Gold' moves met to tears." — Roseanne Cash

A specially-sequenced introduction to the music of Eva Cassidy, gathered from Live At Blues Alley, Eva By Heart and The Other Side (a duet album with Chuck Brown).

Eva Cassidy's unparalleled posthumous recording career began with the release of the Songbird album in early 1998. Twenty-three years and more than 5 million sales later, Songbird sits atop Eva's album catalog, with Eva's becoming one of only 11 female artists ever to achieve 10 or more U.K. gold-selling albums.

This seminal album is reissued on audiophile 45 RPM heavyweight vinyl. Remastered for vinyl using original sources, Eva Cassidy's bestselling U.S. & U.K. platinum-certified album is available on double vinyl for the first time.

Cassidy, whose pure, powerful voice caused a collective spontaneous reaction around the world that she did not live to witness, continues to touch her millions of fans, years after her death on Nov. 2, 1996 from melanoma at the age of 33. Cassidy remains an international sensation. Fans hear a connection to heaven in her voice; critics praise her sensitivity, her superb interpretive skills, and her ability to sing anything with time-stopping beauty and grace.
