Eva Cassidy – Songbird
Songbird is the compilation that introduced Eva Cassidy’s extraordinary voice to a much wider audience and became the defining release in her catalogue.
Originally compiled from recordings released during and shortly after Cassidy’s lifetime, the album brings together some of her most celebrated performances, including “Fields of Gold,” “Autumn Leaves,” “People Get Ready,” “Over the Rainbow” and the title track, “Songbird.”
Cassidy’s ability to move effortlessly between folk, jazz, blues and soul gives the collection a remarkably intimate character. Rather than simply interpreting familiar songs, her restrained arrangements and expressive vocals often make them feel entirely her own.
This Blix Street Records edition has been remastered and pressed on 180-gram vinyl, making it an attractive version for listeners who want to experience the album in a high-quality physical format.
This copy is especially appealing, with both the vinyl and sleeve graded Near Mint, showing very little evidence of previous handling.
