One Of The Greatest Audiophile Albums Of All-Time Features "Autumn Leaves", "Songbird" and "Over the Rainbow"!
A specially-sequenced introduction to the music of Eva Cassidy, gathered from Live At Blues Alley, Eva By Heart, and The Other Side (duet with Chuck Brown). Songbird (certified Gold by the RIAA), runs the gamut from the pop cover of Sting’s “Field’s Of Gold” to a jazz chanteuse rendition of the standard “Autumn Leaves” to the soulful R&B of Curtis Mayfield’s “People Get Ready” to her spine-tingling gospel delivery of “Oh, Had I A Golden Thread” to the breathtaking version of “Somewhere Over The Rainbow.”
It was in 2001 that music enthusiasts sat up and took notice of CassidyÂ’s compelling way with a song; that was the year that the Songbird compilation hit the top of the British album charts and captivated audiences the world over. Songbird has now been certified Platinum in both the U.S. and U.K.
