The Golden Years

This is a re-issue of an LP which represents something of a landmark recording – it was the last studio album recorded by the extraordinary Gracie Fields, doyenne of the British and international entertainment landscape for over half a century. The LP was recorded and released in 1975, just four years before Gracie died at the age of 81. It was made by Warwick Records, and was advertised on TV at the time, but has never appeared on CD, and is much in demand among collectors and Gracie’s still abundant legion of fans, and Acrobat is delighted to make it available for everyone to enjoy. Produced by the celebrated Norman Newell, it features Gracie re-visiting some of her own best-known hits, as well as performing other favourites of hers which she had not previously recorded. Her unique voice and delivery are as distinctive as ever, and it was a fitting way for her to round off her illustrious recording career. The booklet includes the sleeve notes and photos from the inner spread of the original LP release.
