Gilbert O’Sullivan, one of the greatest singer-songwriters of his generation will return in 2024 with “Songbook”, following his extremely successful studio album “Driven”.
“Songbook”, a newly recorded 12 track album including a classic collection of key songs from Gilbert’s expansive catalogue over the last 55 years. Recorded at Lafayette, King’s Cross in late 2023. The album features long-time friend, Bill Shanley on acoustic guitar, electric guitar and backing vocals.
The album features paired down versions of classic songs such as “Alone Again (Naturally)”, “Clair” and “Get Down”. This is the first time “Alone Again (Naturally)” has been re-recorded since it’s original release in 1971! There is also a brand new track specifically recorded for this album, entitled “A Kiss is A Kiss”. This newly recorded album is a reminder to both existing fans and potential fans that Gilbert O’Sullivan really is, the songwriter’s songwriter.
Gilbert has been championed in recent years by everyone from Paul Weller, Nina Simone, Mick Hucknall, Squeeze’s Difford & Tilbrook, Neil Diamond to Gary Barlow (whose Crooner Sessions Gilbert duetted on a few years ago), The Charlatans’ Tim Burgess, Empire Of The Sun and Boy George.
