THE
LAST SONG is the long
awaited final studio album from legendary performer Anthony Newley.
Recorded in London between 1996 and 1997, these timeless songs represent Anthony
Newley's final recordings and have remained unreleased, until now.
Newley passed away in April
1999 after losing his battle with cancer. However, his musical legacy which
encompasses musicals, stage shows, television, hit songs and recordings
thankfully remain.
As
a bonus, the album features two Christmas songs composed by Newley and recorded
in 1997. Originally intended for release as a Holiday single, the tracks now
make their debut for Christmas 2012. Also featured are a number of unreleased
live tracks, including performances of the songs most synonymous with Anthony
Newley; 'What Kind Of Fool Am I?' and 'Who Can I Turn To?'
'The
Last Song' is a joint
collaboration between Stage Door Records and the Anthony Newley Society,
endorsed by Newley's children Sacha and Tara. Speaking about the project, Sacha
Newley commented: "Once
again, Paul Goodhead (The Anthony Newley Society) & Stage Door Records has shown exceptional
and unflagging devotion to the
cause by making available another trove of unissued Newley material. It's
through the patient work of devoted followers and appreciators that a cultural
and historical wrong is being righted, and Anthony Newley's diverse
achievement is once more being placed before the public in all its genuine
unity."
