Newly reissued in expanded form, The Corrs announce that Best Of The Corrs will be made available for the first time on vinyl – out December 1st – in a stunning limited edition 2LP gold vinyl format and expanded 2 CD collection.
Originally released in 2001, Best Of The Corrs is a 21-track double platinum hits collection covering The Corrs’ hugely successful first three studio albums Forgiven Not Forgotten, Talk On Corners and In Blue, including hits such as Breathless, Runaway, What Can I Do, Radio, Dreams and more.
The newly reissued collection features three new songs recorded in tribute to Fleetwood Mac’s Christine McVie following her sad passing in 2022. The band have recorded beautiful new versions of the classic songs Little Lies, Everywhere and Songbird – produced and recorded by Guy Chambers. Little Lies is available on all streaming platforms now, and Songbird will arrive on November 30th – the first anniversary of Christine’s death. A two-track 7” single of Little Lies/Songbird will be released on very limited D2C on October 27th.
The Corrs are a family affair: Andrea (lead vocals, piano), Sharon (violin, piano, vocals), Caroline (drums, piano, vocals) and Jim (guitar, piano, vocals), who have sold over 40 million albums worldwide since their 1995 debut album Forgiven Not Forgotten crashed into the charts and stole our hearts. An enchanting mix of traditional Celtic music with a pop-rock twist, The Corrs have written some of the biggest songs of the last three decades.
They have enjoyed a career that has also seen Platinum records, BRIT Awards, Grammy and Ivor Novello nominations, the honour of being the only band to be asked to perform at Nelson Mandela’s 86th birthday, and more recently, the Queen’s Jubilee in 2002.
Their last album, 2017’s Jupiter Calling, was The Corrs’ seventh and most distinguished album – recorded with legendary producer T. Bone Burnett at London’s RAK Studios.
In 2022, Talk On Corners, The Corrs’ record-breaking second album, turned 25! The UK charts it’s fourth biggest record of the 1990s, and in 2016 was still listed as the 28th biggest-selling album of all time. Its success – returning to Number 1 six times – brought their 1995 debut Forgiven, Not Forgotten up to Number 2, making them the rare band to achieve that feat. It was influential, too, with Ed Sheeran citing the band’s 90s success as the inspiration behind his hit single Galway Girl.
The band have also been announced as Ambassadors for this year’s National Album Day on October 14th – celebrating the art of the record. The band say, “We’re delighted to be ambassadors for this year’s National Album Day. ‘Forgiven, Not Forgotten’ was our debut album originally released 28 years ago back in 1995. Its release came at such a special moment in time for us and it’s been a real pleasure revisiting the memories.”
The Corrs will now hit the road once more on a 12-date tour of southeast Asia, Australia & New Zealand – kicking off October 18th in Jakarta. Full dates can be found here.
