Judy Collins Sings Lennon & McCartney On New CD New York, NY, June 4th 2007:
On July 17th Judy Collins will release her 44th album, "Judy Collins Sings Lennon & McCartney" on her own label Wildflower Records. Having recorded songs by such famed artists as Collins has recorded songs by such celebrated songwriters as Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen among others, Collins only once recorded one written by John Lennon & Paul McCartney.
"Hard to believe, isn't it?" says Collins, who recorded "In My Life" in 1966 and included it on her groundbreaking album of the same title. "I think I was meant to wait and do their songs all at once."
Judy says about the forthcoming CD. Choosing some of her favorite Lennon & McCartney penned songs, the CD features Judy's inspired interpretations of songs like "Blackbird", "Norwegian Wood", "The Long And Winding Road", "Penny Lane" and others. To her these songs "possess a level of deep spirituality that I have always appreciated. It's nourishing music."
Over the course of her memorable 47 year career Judy Collins has shared her diverse talents in the form of music, books and film. The Grammy winner is also an accomplished painter, actress and an in demand key-note speaker on the subject of mental health.
"Judy Collins Sings Lennon & McCartney" was recorded in just three days. Produced by Judy herself along with TKNAME, and with input from her keyboardist Russell Walden. It features Collins playing piano on most tracks as well as bassists Tony Levin and Zev Katz, drummer Tony Beard, and guitarist Larry Campbell.
